Scandinavian Tobacco Group (STG) Sir Walter Raleigh Aromatic
(3.00)
A unique blend of aged tobaccos moistened with imported French and Dutch liqueurs for a rich aroma and a mellow, comfortable smoke. Our unique combination of tobaccos is aged just long enough to ripen to maturity. Then, it is lightly sprinkled with three imported liqueurs to provide this blend with its distinctive aroma and a satisfying taste.
Notes: Production in the United States was moved overseas in 2021.

Probably my favorite aromatic of all time. A desert island blend for sure, and that's saying something with all the aromatics out there. It's truly in a room by itself. SWR has just that sublte hint of Grandma's cinammony fruit-cake she'd make at Christmas, and took the recipe to the hereafter with her. She started that conglomeration sometime around Thanksgiving, and let it "do it's thing". It was the only Fruitcake I ever had that I (and others) truly LOVED. I know, enough about Grandma. SWR-A is like that to me. Jogs memories, and tastes fantastic, without being spray painted with flavor like so many other aromatics I've had. It's what your granddad probably called "aromatic" compared to tobacco's of his day. If you need an explosion of Cherry or vanilla in your face, you're opening the wrong can. If you need to breathe burning cedar bark and pine cones to feel like a man, you're opening the wrong can. If you need a tasty mildly rummy fruitcakey flavor, you'll really like this. I will say this smokes better to me, in a small tapered bowl briar. Full breathing large bowl cobs seem to largely wash out the already mild flavor.

As with a lot of aromatic tobaccos the taste and flavor is sublime but the underlining tobaccos are to mild to satisfy. In the taste the burley is expertly rounded by the mild virginias. There are no musty scent like in burleys as solani ABF for example which I really dislike. It is more of a honey chocolate taste with a little licorice witch I never tasted before. It can burn a little hot and i prefer narrow bowls to concentrate the mild tobacco a little. A recommended Surprise

I feel like I must have got a bad bag or something. This was one of the flattest smokes I've ever had. Absolutely only hot air was had. It smells great, feels great, loads great, behaves great, but just doesn't deliver in the pipe.
