Mar 10, 2011 Mild Extra Strong Full Very Pleasant
This might be strongly flavored even for some die hard aromatic fans. I like the combination of cherry and almond though. A bit gooey if puffed hard and fast, but not terribly messy in general.

Sometimes its a bit too flavored. It made the entire shipping box smell like Luden's sore throat drops! When I'm in the mood for a good bit of sweetness, or I know I'll be smoking around non-smokers, I'll break this stuff out at full-strength. It is also good to "cut" with some other muted tobaccos to reduce the cherry flavor a bit... and let's face it, we all have extra non-descript tobacco laying around to use as filler.

Overall, I enjoy it at full cherry strength as often as I cut it with blander tobaccos.

A smooth smoke. Not overpowering. Taste is steady throughout the entire bowl. Cool start, cool finish.

This was the very first tobacco that I had ever smoked out of a pipe. At first I thought that it had turned me completely off to smoking a pipe but as I continued to smoke it, the cherry flavor came through. Honestly I don't even like cherries much at all but my friend suggested we try it out, so this may be a little bias. The smell of it is of pure cherry but that is not the case when you smoke it. Every once in a while you'll get a hint of cherry but just enough to tease your palate. The almond was equally unnoticeable you could still detect some nuttyness there. I enjoyed smoking this but I will not buy it again.

If you like cherry aromatics, this is a good one. It smokes very cool, has a great flavor, and a very pleasant room note. The only knock on it is that the topping is fairly heavy and it might be a bit sweet for some.

This blend was the very first that I ever loaded into a pipe. I enjoyed it so much that I smoked it and nothing but for 3 years. You either love aromatics or you don't. This is by far the best Cherry aromatic I have ever had.

The blend is alreay rubbed, so there is no work excpet loading it into your pipe. This is a blend that you cannot seem to pack to tight. For me, I like to use a larger bowl, but for those that don't enjoy aromatics so much, a smaller bowl will get one a wonderful fix.

The tobacco burns wonderfully, and the aroma fills the room. The smoke will draw people in from outside even. Trust me.

The tobacco stays lit without a problem. If one needs to relight, don't worry. . . it'll be just as good.

This blend has been in my line up for years, and will continue to be a regular.
