Malarkey. 1 star reviews. This stuff is NOT that bad. Now it does come slimy in the 12oz bag though, I'll give you that. To me, this is a great blender. It's good on it's own also. It is a very mild cherry, and not some juvenile sweet tart flavor. Much better than Paladin Black Cherry on it's own, in my opinion. It slowly builds with a sweet flavor first, then a subtle cherry mid bowl. Has a little tart kick too it. Almost like a wine topping instead of what you would imaging cherry would taste like. My wife said the room note was one of her favorites. I do smoke this on it's own at times, but feel it is better with the added tastes of their Buttered Rum and/or Vanilla blends. Also to add to oldies like H/H or Velvet, etc. I think I paid $13 bucks or so for 12oz bag on sale, and I'm thrilled with it. Needs to be sipped dry in a small briar. A large free flowing cob seems to breathe too much for this alone.
update: Its been quite awhile since I just packed a bowl of this alone. Surprisingly, totally un-instigated, my wife came to the porch and again told me my pipe smelled good. That's twice she's done that with just smoking this cherry by itself, unmixed. Interesting. I asked if it smelled like cherry, and she said "no, just like a really nice pipe". Fair enough.

This was the first tobacco I ever smoked, I picked up a large bag with my original pipe and found it to be actually pretty good, the cherry flavour was in there but it wasnt too sweet and I didnt get the propylene glycol feeling yet im sure its in there. I also left part of it in a bag for almost a year and after aging I have to say it was even nicer than the original opening. with the first pipe as well as the last, I got nothing but complements for the scent it left on me and on the area I smoked in, a few lasses even told me that I should use a pipe in the morning instead of cologne.

This is the only cherry pipe tobacco I've ever tried that you can actually taste the cherry in. Opening the bag, the aroma is delicious and very strong. The tobacco itself, however, is a bit mild. It has a pronounced tendency towards tongue-bite if you puff even a little to fast. The Room Note is wonderfully sweet, inviting people to come comment on how great it smells.
Overall, I would much rather have this than many other 'drug-store blends' and definitely would take this over any other cherry flavored blend that I have tried.

Probably the best of the inexpensive Cherry flavored tobaccos. Fairly lightly cased, nothing like a "cough syrup delivery system" like the Smokers Pride brand is.
I couldn't smoke much of this either but it is the best in it's class by a longshot. I left some to dry out for a couple of months and it is somewhat more manageable....you can actually taste the tobacco behind the flavoring.
This is about the only cheap Cherry Cavendish around that doens't make me ill, I actually enjoy the very, very occasional bowl of this weed.

I believe this is now marketed under the name Admiral's Choice Cherry Cavendish. It is sold through CVS Pharmacy and comes in an 8oz can with a pop-top lid instead of the large bulk bag it used to come in. Opening the tin, it has a distinct smell of cherries, but like the above reviewer stated, it's not anything offensive. It's a mix of brown, black and some light yellow ribbon cuts and comes way too wet. I bought this about 3 months ago and smoked a few bowls until the sweet tooth I had didn't last anymore. I opened it up again today and it's still almost sopping wet. It smokes okay though, if you don't mind the re-lights and sizzling noise and has a decent flavor I wouldn't think of as cherry with some spice notes as you get down the bowl. Could I smoke a bunch of this? No. But to the smokers who stick to the drugstore stuff, this is probably just as good as CB Cherry and much cheaper.

I have concluded that Super Value is the most overlooked drugstore brand on the market. Surprisingly, this well-balanced cavendish provided a smooth smoke and a clean cherry flavor. The brown leaves are free of the "cough syrup casing" found in other inexpensive cherry blends. The result is a light cherry taste from a tobacco that won't leave a swamp in your heel and an inferno on your tongue. I recently smoked fully nine bowls of this in a single day and experienced negligable tongue-bite. Also a plus is an even and manageable burn that you can set your watch to. I found this one at a cigarette shop for less than the pack of Camels that I went in for. I'm glad that I took the time and the $2 to pop this cherry.
