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.

Opening a jar of Christmas Cookie I’ve had for just over a year revealed an even mix of rich brown and charcoal black tobacco pieces. It had the smell of alcohol, rich vanilla, and light cocoa. It was a little too moist for my liking so I dried it out some. An unlit sip brought vanilla, dark rum, and notes of molasses and the initial light was all vanilla. I’ve been smoking this blend for years, it never bites, is rich, and the top note does not burn off before the end of the bowl. Rich vanilla flavors, dark rum, and clover honey come through, at times there is a taste of molasses, and sometimes stewed fruit on a nose exhale that is almost prune like. There is a hint of some spice that I can’t grasp, maybe nutmeg, cinnamon, cloves, or all three. The room note is excellent and toasty and reminds me of sugar cookies baking on a cold day. This blend also leaves a vehicle smelling toasty and tasty. The finish is long, and the mustache note is most excellent. This is my favorite aromatic of all time, and I would recommend it to anyone who even remotely likes aromatics.

I wanted to hate it. The name alone kept me away for some time, but I finally picked some up. This is some good flippin tobacco! I smoked an oz. in 3 days. It is definitely a full aromatic, but it is done the right way. This is one of the very few aromatics that actually holds it's delicious flavor throughout the entire bowl. Most taste like ashy crap by the second half of the bowl, not this one. Flavor is reminiscent of aged vanilla, brown sugar, a drop of spiced rum, and a pinch of something else. Remember what your grandmas kitchen smelled like when she was baking cookies? Yea. Hands down best aromatic I've ever had.

One of the best aromatics to have in your cellar. It does taste of vanilla/sugar cookie, but it is not high on sugar/goopy. But I also get a bit of banana milk shake taste (very subtle though). Packed the pipe using the "rolling pipe in your hand" method. Absolutely no to very little tongue bite. The nicotine kick is very minimal but the flavor is amazing and it has one of the best aftertastes. Very smooth almost till the end of the bowl.
Do give this a try!!

i never smoke aromatics but i really like this one a lot.
a favorite mixture of mine is equal parts Boswells Northwoods, Hearth and Homes Anniversary Kake and Boswells Christmas Cookie. its pretty damned yummy.
i would have named this blend "Cookie Dough" instead of "Christmas Cookie"

I'll admit to being a sucker for a good aromatic blend now and then, and when I opened the container of this blend,...YO! BABY!...how about a little caramel flavoring, huh? Forget the pipe, this blend made you want to just grab a fistful of the tobacco and eat it right out of the bag like caramel corn.
If you're a beginner pipe smoker, you may want to break your cherry on this blend. It's mild, smokes right down to a fine grey ash, and leaves a wonderful aroma in your wake. And, with most all of Boswell's blends, there's just no bite at all.
I wouldn't want a steady diet of aromatics like this, but once in a while they are a treat. Enjoy this one.

Easy to lite and stay lit. Smokes down to a light gray ash. Moisture content is perfect. No bite. Casing is very lite. You could smoke this all day. This one I will be reordering.

Another winner from Boswell...taste is pretty much that of a vanilla cookie. Very easy on the taste buds and can be smoked bowl after bowl with no ill effects. Room note is as good as it gets...a true all day smoke. 4 stars!!!
