The only reason I added Marquette to the dozen or so blends I ordered from Uhle's a couple of years ago is because I was always a fan of the Marquette basketball team back in the 1970s when my local team (the Baylor Bears) couldn't beat a team made up of girls scouts... anyway, I digress. I like a rum flavored tobacco blend from time to time and never had one that also had vanilla added. The thought of drinking rum with vanilla flavor appealed to me... but not smoking it. This was quite bland and not nearly as entertaining as the old Marquette basketball team, although it was still more entertaining than watching the old Baylor Basketball team.

A beautiful and delicious dessert smoke for the aromatically inclined. The aroma is absolutely scrumptious. It burns surprisingly cool and dry for a blend this richly cased. The description includes rum and vanilla, but I get a little chocolate in the taste as well.
If you like Captain Black, this costs less in bulk, and is much better in my opinion. Very pleasant.

Another excellent aromatic from Uhle's and this from a devout non-aromatic smoker. The three Uhle aromatics I have tried are all uniformly excellent with Marquette and Old Shoe in the lead. I continue to be surprised at how well all of these blends burn...cool, dry and right down to the bottom with no sizzling buildup of goop. They also stay lit extremely well. Marquette is rum and vanilla flovored, but the rum is the dominant of the flavors, adding to the tobacco in a nice way. The room note is very pleasnt, so lots of compliments from the ladies, but there is real tobacco pleasure to be had, not just sweet flavorings. The tobacco itself seems wet, but is not sticky like most aromatics.

A marvelous mixture of tobaccos, which manage the difficult task of keeping pace with a fairly strong casing. It's a super all-purpose aromatic smoke for general puttering and tinkering. However, I do find that if I pay attention to the taste I can, pick out the flavours from the different tobaccos used. Try that with yer Cap't Black!
I find it to be a more enjoyable smoke than any aromatic that I can lay my hands on locally, and I don't believe that I've ever submitted an order to Uhle's without asking for this blend.
