Sutliff Tobacco Company Tobacco Galleria - Wild Cherry

The Virginia is a little grassy, though the sweetness is muted by the cherry. The toasted black cavendish seems to be unsweetened as I don't notice any vanilla. The cherry topping is very mild, lightly applied and pleasant, and despite what other reviewers claim, has no chemical taste nor does it taste like cough drops. It does remind me of a milder Dutch Masters Cherry Cavendish, which I believe this is. Burns well, cool and clean, requiring few relights or dry time. Leaves a little moisture in the bowl, but no goop. Has virtually no nicotine, and a pleasant after taste and room note. A mild all day regular cherry blend that won't bite or get in your way as you live your day. It's three stars for a mild smoke, and I would rate it as I did the DM Cherry Cavendish if the cherry had a little more depth to the flavor. I believe being stored as bulk and not in a pouch caused a little of the topping to flash off. Two and a half stars.

Okay, so I knew going in that this one would try my taste buds. I'm not usually up to trying cherry blends of any kind, but since Altadis sends my pipe club a blend of the month, I do feel obligated to sample each offering. I used a trusty Comoy's Highgate that I have long reserved for aromatic blends to give this one a try.

Positives - This blend burns fairly dry for a heavy aromatic.

Negatives - This blend tastes like cherry cough syrup.

If you are an aromatic fancier, and particularly a pipester who enjoys the taste of cherry in your smoke.... Well, here you go pardner.

Sutliff Tobacco Company - Tobacco Galleria - Wild Cherry.

Note: from bulk.

The ribbons have a strong cherry aroma to them, about half are a lot coarser than the rest, and because this was from bulk it's had room to breath in the pouch so is ready to smoke fresh.

The smoke doesn't 'do it' for me. The cherry topping hogs the flavour, and isn't particularly pleasant: bitter, caustic, acidic, and cheap tasting. I get little tobacco flavours, and what I do get is flat and boring. The burn's a better point, with tongue bite being minimal.

Nicotine: mild. Room-note: pleasant.

Wild Cherry? Never again.

Not recommended.

This is a well recomended tobacco, for its price, in my book. Here's why:

This stuff might be El Cheapo but the quality of the bag I got was definitely a step above "drugstore" blend. Without a doubt this is a heavily cased aromatic but I didn't find it to be overdone. I did not have a problem with this blend ghosting the bowl.

And it tasted great. Nice burnt, sweet taste of decent black cavendish.

For the price, well worth it.

I really didnt think it was THAT bad. For being a blend I found in a cheap discount tobacco store I guess maybe my expectations were pretty low. It is super sweet. Probably too sweet for most, but I like a sugary tobacco. I would only really recommend this to cherry fans, but even then Im sure you could find something better (CAO Cherrybomb perhaps?).

i just could'nt taaste the cherry in this,most of the time all that came through was,well,i'm not sure.i guess i'd have to say virginia,here and there i would get a hint of cherry,the aroma that filled the room was kind of like cherry ,but nothing like the classic cherry blends that fill a room at the very start of puffing and stay the whole time to the end.i probably won't try this again if i'm looking for cherry blend.

This blend brings together the worst combination possible: Cheap tobacco, and cheap, synthetic casing. Altadis should save a bunch of money, and stop producing this sort of dreck. Then they could invest in some good tobacco, and better quality flavorings. I know they can make some winners, but they are wasting their time and resources with this one.

I'm not sure what people are expecting when they buy this type of cherry pipe tobacco, nor am I really sure what I expect when I keep buying them over & over again. However, this is ok, no real bite, cherry flavor is overwhelming in the pouch but not in taste. The room note is very pleasant no complaints from family at all. Tobacco is ribbon cut, packs nice and burned well

Smokes and burns well. Its a good aro, and is great for beginners. For some reason it smells a bit like playdough.

Luckily I smoked this in my wifes mini corn cob. I was waiting for the nyquil taste but James said it, cough drops.. yuck! Maybe THE WORST pipe tobacco I've ever tried (next to Red Cap). It literally made my stomach turn, (although that could've been the pepper jack cheese I ate previously.. I doubt it.) This one won't get a second chance. After 4 minutes there was gurgling, I couldn't even finish the small bowl. I've been looking for a cherry to mix in my "junk batch" or maybe I won't even put it in there? Highly unrecommended. If you do smoke it maybe try it while plugging your nose, it could help.
