The four currently available VegasSmokes aromatic blends (Brown's Special, Brown's Extra, Nevada 64, and Vanilla) are all decent aromatics, two or three notches above any of the McClelland aromatic bulk blends and five or six above some other mass blenders aromatic offerings. I got all four as a generous, 3 oz/ea sampler and will probably reorder one or two of them one of these days.
Despite all of the description of cocoa, chocolate, and vanilla, (which for most people is usually a sign of yet-another-Captain Black gooper) the casing is well controlled, or at least light in the humectant load. Comes through with a pretty fair tobacco taste-- mostly burley I think-- no tongue-bite and no excessive adulterant left to gurgle in the pipe. You don't have to be trying to please the spouse to enjoy the two Brown's blends, particularly. If you like honey, go for the Extra. If not, the Brown's special has a pleasant dark chocolate quality. These also go well as a Cavendish addition to a straight Virginia.
