Mac Baren Mixture Modern
(2.75)
This blend is at the mild end of the taste spectrum in the Mac Baren Mixture Line. Mixture Modern is a touch sweeter than Mixture Scottish Blend, but distinguishes itself with a more complex flavor, yet similar room note, while still retaining the special Mixture flavor.
Notes: A.k.a. "Danish Mixture". Introduced in 2000.
Previously sold as Mixture Mild. Name change due to EU laws that words like "Light" and "Mild" cannot be used on tobacco products anymore.

I totally agree with Tantric on this mild and flavorless brew. Similar in taste to Captain Black White, but with the flavor turned down a notch or two. Like the Captain, the leaf in this blend was stewed to the point where it wouldn't bite a fly.
I detected a vanilla/oat sort of taste. I think I would get the same effect if I loaded my pipe with Honey Nut Cheerios.
I couldn't finish the package.

I just tried a bowel of this blend, and all I can say is "what crap". Burns the throat, has an artificial additive flavor, and I will never purchase it again. There are three MB blends I like, and two are HH, and the other is Golden Extra. Again, this MM is DOG PUCKY!

One of my money and time consuming experiences. Just because of my curiosity.
I couldn't finish even a bowl of this. A standard Danish mixture with lots of vanilia and fruity taste. Can be exceptional for a beginner and/or aromatic fan.

Well this should be called mixture light. Thats what it is a watered down mixture. Not my kind of blend at all. Not a great burner, no great taste, strange overall. If you like mixture this may be your thing. I have found Mac Baren to be overall not my brand however if you like Mac Baren you may like this.

I did not find this to be anything special and perhaps that is because I do not like the Mac Baren flavorings. I didnt finish the tin. Not great not bad. Mild all around, better offerings of this kind can be found from other brands I think.

McB Danish Mixture … Simply put; I flat don't like this blend. IMHO too much of some sort of an aromatic sweetener has been added to suit my taste. Many seem to love blends that cover up the tobacco taste with a vanilla/fruity casing, if that sounds good to you, this is your tobacco.

This was one of 4 MB tins given to me by a good friend and the last MB I will review since their tobacco is very similar to my mind and just gradients of nastiness. Though this did not bite as many MB blends do, it was quite flat, possessed a harsh unpleasant aroma and only a minimal amount of smoke though properly dried. It smelled cased in the tin but none of this vanilla like scent translated to the room note so far as I could tell.

This tobacco is O.K., that's it just O.K. If tobacco flavor had a middle this would be it, I found it to be ultra mild in flavor, like many of the previous reviewers. Why bother smoking at all, if it's going to be this neutral blend.

Another flavorless blend in the "mixture" series. Flat, boring and like smoking air.

"mild and flavorless brew"- Pipestud hit the nail on the head! This is perhaps the first negative review I have ever given a Macbaren baccy. But if the shoe fits!!! This blend was very mild and had an almost artificial tasting berry flavoring agent in it. This is still very smokeable tobacco. But then so is Captain Black White which is cheaper and tastes less plastic. Although I recieved my sample from the super kind Smokinokie, I imagine that in the end, the smoke doesn't justify the price.
