I am a pipe smoker first and foremost, and I enjoy blends within every genre. With that said, aromatics are not generally favored. I have smoked some of the big ones, 1-Q, Barbados plantation, Molto Dolce, and a few others.
I have not come across a more enjoyable aromatic than Stokkebye's Nougat, and B&B. They are not only inoffensive, but I actually desire them from time to time as a change of pace. That is more than I can say of many other aros, most of which are, at best, a "not bad" experience.
There is just enough tobacco taste in this blend to keep it from suffering the same fate most Sutliff aros met with me, or that of most straight Cavendish tobaccos. It is not overly goopy, compared (again) to Sutliff, which is unfathomably goopy, oily, etc. and will crackle when you take a flame to it. With that said, it is delightful in the air-- room note is excellent (as an aro should be), and the casing/topping/Black Cav. portion is nicely balanced with the Burley and Virginia. Not that the latter are particularly exceptional, but good enough to add some flavor, mouth feel, etc. In other words, you know you are smoking tobacco, and don't really get the "Hot steam" thing I get from some non-exemplary aros.
This is just a relaxing, comforting, affordable blend. Nice smelling, but not like a straight Cavendish insofar as having no real flavor. The Burley and VA keep it out of that realm.
Mild nicotine. I smoked a full bowl and was somewhat aware of a nicotine presence, but nothing more than that.

Pouch: Moderately dry, no heavy casing. Smell of vanilla, delicate application, flavored, not cased. The overall smell is rich and mouth watering. Flame: Burns well, lots of dry smoke. No harshness. No tongue bite. Taste of chocolate, little vanilla. Nice cavendish sweetness. Side stream: Smooth, fragrant, but dry smoke. Not steamy. Little nose tingle. Initially thought it was like Lanes 1Q, But 1Q is more vanilla, Nougat is more chocolate. Down Bowl: Stays dry, no bitterness from the burly. No wetness in pipe. Flavor changes to a mild sweet virginia tobacco as flavoring burns off, burly is in backround. Few relights necessary. Good morning smoke, need quite to enjoy the subtle flavor. Best prior to any food. N is slight at first, but because it does not get wet and goopy I smoked the whole pipe so the cumulative effect was medium and was satisfying at the end. Pipe was dry at end of bowl. NOT a smoke to rush. Aftertaste: Subtle tobacco, no bitterness, nice flavor on tongue, with a bit of tingle but no bite. Flavor in nose is tobacco. Conclusion: Great mild aromatic. Excellent Danish presentation, I can easily see why this is Stokkebye's best seller.

In the category of aromatic tobaccos, I consider this to be among the best. It has a nice light (and choco-vanilla) taste which is very palatable. Because it is not heavy in the nicotine department, and because it is such an easy smoke, it is easy to over-smoke it.......a flaw in the smoker, not the tobacco IMHO. It does not have an immediate pure tobacco taste (after all it is an aromatic) but you can taste the tobacco as it drifts in and out of this sweet smoking experience. As an another reviewer has suggested, this one doesn't hit you between the eyes, but rather improves and wins you over more slowly with a bit of finesse. I'm not a full-time aromatic smoker, but in it's class this tobacco is first class....

I think this baccy is awesome. I really love it. It is not too sweet at all. Has a very enjoyable flavor that keeps you interested all the way to the end of the bowl with no bite . You gotta try it. Buy an ounce and see for Yourself. You'll be glad You did.

Very enjoyable blend, in fact I'm enjoying this blend at this very moment as i write this review. I must say, the folks at Villiger Stokkebye have out done themselves with this one. Smells wonderful in the pouch as well as when being smoked, one of the only baccy's my wife lets me smoke in the house, which is reason enough for me to smoke alot of this blend. Has a nutty, marshmellowy vanilla room note. Has full flavor, which is evidence of the fine tobacco's used in this blend. There is a reason why this is Stokkebye's best selling blend. Will definitely be buying much more of this blend, and i hope you will too.

Call me a wimp, but I really like this stuff. It smells great in the bag, lights easily, burns a little wet, but hey it is an aromatic. My wife - a cigarette smoker - loves the smell. I love a small pipeful after dinner a couple of times a week. I recommend it to those who enjoy an aromatic from time to time. A good one to have in the cupboard.

August,2004 I have a 'thing' with nougat and this Stokkebe blend is everything I was looking for! I smoke this blend as my first pipe of the day and the Virginia/Burley combine with the Cavendish to give one that 'nutty' taste that wakes up the tastebuds gently ,but, with an excellent, luxurious tobacco taste! The odor of the weed in the bag drive me wild with that Nougat aroma. I keep it in my bedroom Tobacco Bin ( one of thoes plastic tubs[ they give in the hospital] so as to keep tobacco off the carpet). And within a few days I can smell the aroma, even with the zip-lock sealed

I really enjoyed this one compared to most other "nougat" flavored tobacco I have tried. Tastes and smells like vanilla and chocolate. Not much else to say about it, except that the nicotine was pleasantly present. Will impress those around you.

This is a quality tobacco -- tasty leaves with the right amount of cream / caramel flavor. Smells delicious in the pouch, smokes well, and has a good room note. When I bought it, it didn't need additional drying.
I'll update this review after it's aged a bit more and I've smoked it from one of my meers.

I have been smoking nougat for 26 years. It was my first premium aromatic pipe tobacco I encountered. I smoke different kinds of aromatics, but nougat is the main preferred choice.
