Light, fresh with satisfying sweetness. Blend of fine dark Cavendish and flue-cured bright Virginias. Flavored with a sweet concoction of food flavorings that J.M. likes to experiment with. Excellent room note, you will fall in love with this one!

Meh. I smoked a decent sized sample of this one and it just did not do anything for me. The topping is heavy and doesn't stand out in any great way to me. I don't know what I would say the flavor is, but it is strong. I guess it hangs in pretty well throughout the smoke as I never felt I was smoking hot air, but it was just never special.

I can think of several aromatics that I would both smoke and recommend over sweet dreams. It just left no memorable impression on me one way or the other. So two stars as the topping may appeal to you.

Ordered this along side some Berry Cobbler. I have everyone take a whiff of these two bags and most are unable to distinguish. Aghast!! My two months of pipe smoking experience can sense the subtleties!! I like this blend but it doesn't really have me coming back regularly. I'm gonna take the advice of a few reviewers here and mix it with some cav. It is a popular aroma with the War Department (and neighbours) but I do find it to be moist and I pay particular attention to the bowl after I'm done. It does light (and stay lit) relatively easily though. I find it doesn't burn all that hot and I do appreciate the flavour but often it leaves me with the sense that the flavour should be way more agreeable and enjoyable. As enjoyable and agreeable as the smell of the bag, but it doesn't. I'm still going back to JMB for others though!!!!

This came as a sample size bag with the purchase of a pipe.

I don’t think I would order this on my own, but if you like sweet tobacco with a heavy topping, this is your find.

This is really sweet from the beginning and it hangs around until the end. It’s quite like Cherry, but may have other flavoring as well. When I mean Cherry, it’s like the syrup you would put in a cherry coke if doing it old fashioned way. It also has almost a tart essence with the Cherry flavor.

I will finish the bag and share some of this with others, but doubt I buy more because it is just not my cup of tea. If not careful this will bite. Best to smoke slow.

Two stars for what it is. Good quality tobacco is used - but the topping is just too much for me to really enjoy.

Out of the Boswell blends that I have tried, this is the only one that I do not particularly care for. The topping is composed of sweet undistinguishable flavors. This blend smokes rather warm and damp compared to the others.
