Sillem's Red
(3.00)
This is a masterful composition for the sophisticated gourmet. A high proportion of spicy and sweet Virginia flake characterizes this mellow, fruity mixture which has been deliciously refined with double toasted black cavendish and combined with delicate fruity essences of ripe apples, cherries, and Mirabelle. Coarse and fine golden Virginia give an exquisite bouquet to this tobacco with subtle, light and sweet hints of lemon.

Oh it bites. The flavor of this tobacco is quite nice. However, I found that it bit quite a bit. Disappointing, I love the black so much.

At first I thought 'This is pleasant' but after a few smokes it becomes exactly like strawberry chapstick - plasticky, fake, cloying. There are no ripe apples, cherries or Mirabelle to be found here, just strawberry chapstick all the way.
Weak tobacco - even for a Danish style. Has some broken flake in there. It gets 2 stars because it has the strength of flavouring an aromatic should have that most do not, it's just the wrong flavour.
I can't believe 4noggins stocks this awful stuff but doesn't stock the delicious natural tasting MacBarens 7 seas red.

The tin smell is like peaches, the taste is not super sweet on the tongue like most aromatics, in fact I could hardly detect any sweetness. The taste is like the smell but extremely mild and barely noticeable unless you really concentrate on what you taste.
This stuff is bland and mild. I've had house blends similar to this but with more flavor.
And I got a bunch of hard woody tobacco stems in mine, just like my Sillem's Black tin.
Also, I got heavy tongue bite with this stuff.

A good quality aromatic.It's like drinking forest fruits tea. Not close to my taste.If you like nakhla(hookah,nargile) tobacco then you are going to love it.
