The way a Cavendish should be. A very light, sweet, and pleasant aromatic. I've been smoking heavier English blends lately and this was a refreshing blend to come back to.

An oily tobacco that I like to pack fairly loose to get the flavors to come out. I don't notice the vanilla, but can find the caramel. Caramel is a good find in an aromatic in my book. I don't know what 'butternut' tastes like, (or maybe I do now), but there is a wonderfully smooth flavor that comes through with the caramel. I get nothing but compliments from the room note although most people tell me they smell chocolate. Enjoyable to pick up and taste the flavor of the pipe it was smoked in days later. A keeper in the rotation.

Really sweet black cavendish. At first almost too sweet, but it mellows out about midway through the bowl. Strong vanilla and butternut scent in the pouch, wonderful room note.

This black Cavendish is very very similar to McClellands VBC. I was going to call it a blend but its not. Just black Cavendish with a Devils Food taste and aroma. Think Ding Dong's from Hostess. This might scare you into thinking goopy and sticky but its rather dry and does not leave anything nasty in the pipe. Probably the best black Cavendish next to VBC and BCA.

I want to like this tobacco, I really, really do, but the caramel flavoring is too much for me. This is sweeter than Milan's Poochie's Blend and reviewers state that tobacco to be "almost too sweet." The initial light tastes great but after a few puffs a thick oily sour taste seems to overwhelm the mouth. I have tried this blend in two different pipes and couldn't get through 1/2 a bowl before dumping it out and loading some Sunset Rum (I highly recommend that blend from Milan) Bottom line, if you like extremely sweet tobaccos give this a try, you might like it. Also, I had to let this dry for 30 minutes before loading, it is heavily cased.
