Boswell Pipes & Tobacco Christmas Cookie
(3.27)
An aromatic that you can smoke year round with a very pleasant vanilla cookie flavor. This will definitely please everyone in the room as well as the serious smoker. You do not need to like aromatics to enjoy this blend. A heady smoke all day long.

With a superb aroma from the bag the first couple of puffs left me unimpressed and I thought "well, let's suffer through this"... Then the taste really hit me and I slowed down my smoking pace to really come to terms with the flavors and this tobacco turned me into a true believer.
Take your time with this and slow down the tempo. It's not your quick in-and-out smoke. To really appreciate this you need to slow down.
I ordered three tobaccos from the Boswell's. This and Raspberry Cream are my favorites so far, with No Bite Delite coming in at third place. They are all good smokes, but this one is above the rest. Try it and you'll not be disappointed!
***Edit: Leaves a lingering "sour" odor in a room when smoked and the room left empty for a while, not to the missus liking.
***Re-evaluating my reviews now that I've had a little more smoking under my belt... ...This goes down 2 stars... Sorry!

I enjoy the occasional aromatic full of fruity sweetness that tastes like it smells but I was a little disappointed with this one. Boswell pipes are among the best, and I really want to like their blend, especially with all of the positive reviews, but this tobacco for me was very flat and not full of the flavor I would expect from the reviews and the smell in the bag. I was expecting more vanilla, more sweetness, and something that would knock my socks off, but I didn't experience any of those things. The good things about it: smells great in the bag, burns well and cool, leaves no goop in the bottom of the pipe, and smells good for others around you. The bad: not a lot of flavor leaving me wanting more and disappointed. While I like my Boswell pipe, I don't think that I will buy this tobacco again.

I know i will get bashed for this one but this is the best boswells that i have had. Most of the ones I have tried are alittle lifeless. this one however tastes great,has little bite, and smells wonderful. however i do recommend packing very lightly to bring out more flavor

I got this blend out of a box pass our pipe club sends around every once and a while. I tried a few bowls of it and proceeded to swap it for a tin of Dunhill's night cap. I liked this blend because it did taste like a cookie and also had the real tobacco taste that I love. I will have to say that the room note is probably the best I have ever smelled. I could not smoke this every day, it is just not my style. This blend is one of the best aromatics that I have ever tried. The bowl is not gunked with the goo of the casing and it is not so wet that a bag of pipe cleaners is necessary to keep your pipe dry. The most redeeming quality is the room note, but the carefully blended taste is also better than I expected, but nothing out of the ordinary for Boswell.
