A slightly better version of CB White. That's not saying much for this Chemo-Vanilla-Gooper.

Really just tried this for the sake of trying it. Smells nice in the tin and a pleasant aroma when burning...but very cloying and no real tobacco taste. It's like smoking potpouri. yuck!

There are aromatics, and then there are aromatics. This belongs to the latter category.

This may sound silly to you US connoiseurs, but this is hard to get in Sweden (as far as I know), and I have read so much about it on the Net I felt I wanted to try it for myself. I am not generally speaking an "aromatic smoker", even though it sometimes offer a nice change when I've gone through my supply of Balkans and English.
This came in a pouch shrinkwrapped in an extra see-through plastic cover, and when I got home and unfolded it I discovered that a corner of that was missing. I suspected this might have dried the baccy out. Not so. Maybe there's a good part of humectants in there? The tobacco was almost sticky and moist so I decided to smoke it in my meer, hoping it would suffer the least from possible gooey residues.
As I lit it up and started puffing, it was a very mild smoke that greeted me, and I was almost dissapointed at its lack of taste. After a while my daughter cried out from the next room: "What's that smell?!!, It's soo ... GOOD!"
I tried to smoke more of it but gave up halfway since it was so bland and monochromatic. Dumped the rest of the bowl.
Well. That's about it as far as I'm concerned. A lot of vanilla-something that obviously pleases kids. It's another one of those aromatics that I'll reserve for smoking to create a "home-like" atmosphere if and when PTA comes around the house for discussions 😉

Good Beginner smoke.
Nice smell, soft no bite taste. Very similar to Lane Limited's 1-Q or Tinderbox's Wilshire.
After an ounce or two, I just lost interest. I like a little bit of "kick" and Blue can't.

It's sad to see this blend go down hill but it did in a hurry it used to be the closest thing to flying Dutchman that you could have found but now it is just a tobacco that is full of nic that bites the he'll out of your tongue not to also mention the price is why to high
