This is really good stuff. A quality Aromatic using quality tobacco. Not too sweet so you can taste the tobacco. A good all day smoke in my opinion. It does need some drying time as others have mentioned but you will be rewarded. I enjoyed it so much i went back and purchased the last 3 remaining tins (and i believe we wont see this down under again) All in all happy days for me

This blend is a gem. The burly offers a nice earthy flavour and the Cavendish provides the sweetness. The aroma out of the tin is sublime. This blend is a mild aromatic so you can actually taste the tobacco. It burns even and to a nice grey ash and does not bite. Nicotine is minimal. Room note is very pleasant. Good all day smoke. Smoked in a Peterson Killarney 80S 4/5 stars

During a very recent visit to NYC, on the way back to the in-laws home from a trip to another tobacconist, I happened upon a Nat Sherman B&M (the one pictured on their website). If you get a chance, visit them. It's like a temple built for the Tobacco Gods. Being short on time and funds, I only had time for a quick look thru and a smell of their pipe house blends. What I ended up buying was 545 Broadway Nougat and (thanks to my wife) 307 Mild Cavendish.

This stuff is simply marvelous! I'm still a novice smoker, and primarily prefer aromatics, but it doesn't take an educated pallate to appreciate this wonderful tobacco. Fresh out of the tin it is soaked, so give it a few days to dry out. After that it packs well, but may require an extra charring light. Keeping it lit isn't too difficult, and you can smoked it at a moderate pace without overheating the bowl. The flavor of the tobacco is there, with the topping present like a garnish, a pleasant surprise compared with other aromatics I've smoked.

After a few bowls, 307 went straight to the short list of tobaccoes I keep stock of!

Edit 12/15/2009 According to the NYC B&M 307 is discontinued.

I enjoy the finish of each bowl. It's my favorite, but not most preferred only by the fact that eating Prime Rib everyday taints it's own value.

"A rich burley tempered with cashmere smooth toasted cavendish; mild, earthy and natural aroma and flavor." That's how this tobacco was first described to me and it has since become a favorite smoke. The first tobacco I ever bought was CAO's Da Vinci, and as I grow away from aromatics, the less I like Da Vinci and the more I appreciate Nat Sherman's #307 among others.

Dunhill Nightcap and MacBaren's Plumcake are "daily" smokes for me, but when I require something a bit more mild, #307 is a delight. All this inspite of the fact that I have no idea what a "cashmere smooth toasted cavandish" might be. I must say, especially to the new pipe smoker, I found it much more enlightening to avoid drug store tobacco and bulk aromatics in exchange for 50g tins of the good stuff-- even if I wasn't always sure why the stuff was good in the first place. With that, this tobacco gets a B+ 'wife rating' and even my neighbors have commented on how pleasant the aroma is. And that's why I smoke a pipe-- the taste, the aroma, and the R & R. Evidentally, we're all happy. I recommend.

Though a devotee of the English blends, here I am ready to wholeheartedly declare: a damn fine tobacco. This is a fascinating blend that looks quite nice in the tin. It posesses a good, even mix of dark shades of brown and black. Like most tinned tobaccos, this one needs some drying. I would reccomend emptying and spreading it out onto a sheet of paper for a day or so.

On the nose, it has a very pleasent and classic toasted cavedish odor. However, when smoking it I detected another level of natural sweetness coming from the cavendish. I detect some mild vanilla casings in the burley and maybe something else, something with an almost red-wine-like quality that I cannot nail down- but it is absolutley spectacular.
This Sherman packs, lights, and burns very nicely. It produces some sumptuos, soft, velvety clouds of smoke that fill the room with an odor that is very true to its unsmoked tin aroma. During the entire smoke it retained its excellent burning properties but started getting very wet toward the end.

The flavor of this tobacco is great thanks to its immaculate blending. It is poignant,rich,delicious and with an underlying natural tobacco flavor that is well rounded by the slight casing. The toasted cavendish is the key here. From the start, it works to sublty mesh all of the flavors perfectly. Unlike many tobaccos, the effect on the palate is very true to the odor it has in the tin. This is also true for its room aroma. If you do not smoke a pipe, then the Sherman 307 is a really good reason to start. Just be sure to dry it out some first. - The Rabbi

This is soaking wet,tin smells like vanilla or rum.The aromatic taste seems like a cedar taste or it was aged in a rum barrel but the barrel is what stands out in the smoke.After you get past the aromatics the tobacco is nice full mellow burley and a little peppery tasting on the end.Lights good Burns good No tongue bite,I like smoking this at night.
