Gag! This stuff remindes me of why I hate aromatics. Tastes like the Yankee candle company smells. Sickening essence of vanilla and hazelnut. PG for days. I don't think its possible for this one to ever get dry. Gag me with a spoon. If I want something this sweet I'd rather have dessert.

This started off nice enough with a mild dark roasted coffee-like and vanilla flavor, a little milder than I like, but about half way a musty, stale flavor started creeping in. By the 3/4 mark it had taken over and I had to quit it. Don't know what the deal is with that, but it puts me completely off this tobacco. No thanks.

Being not too big of a fan of straight Cavendish blends, This was kind of set to fail. So just my opinions, the taste was awful, and it did burn quite a bit. You can counteract this just by smoking slower, but just kind of ruins the point of such a light tobacco.
For the good parts. It does smell pretty good. Yeah.

I personally really did not enjoy this tobacco at all. I found it almost sour tasting and I tried it out of multiple pipes. I will try blending and see what happens...

I love this stuff. I feel like I'm smoking vanilla ice cream. The flavor is a little bland,however. I could use heavier tobacco and vanilla flavoring,but definetly an aromatics dream!
UPDATE***
The more I let this stuff age the worse it gets. I just threw the remaining aside and if any one would like this last 2 OZ please let me know. It was very good at first but now with taste buds becoming stronger It feels like I am smoking vanilla flavored wood.
