As an avid aro smoker, I always keep some Stanwell blends on hand. The fruit and vanilla flavor is there, albeit mild. It doesn't bite, it's fairly dry from the tin, and it's a good smoke to relax with. It's not nearly as pleasing as Melange because it lacks the nuttiness that really sets that mixture apart. It's not a bad smoke though, and it's definitely the right way to enjoy an aromatic.

Just as I was checking out my order on P&C, I saw this in the sale section. Less than 6 bucks for a tin of Stanwell? Why not. Melange had a great flavor and was an enjoyable aro, couldn't see this one being much different. Order arrived, and I cracked the tin. Decent tin note. Fruity, but not sickly smelling. Vanilla is there too. lights and packs well. The flavor seems to drift off at half way point, but most do. Leaves an intoxicating room note the wife loves, and the dogs don't seem to mind. If I don't finish this tin, I can always offer it up to a guest looking to try the pipe. Stanwell seems to use quality tobacco. I'd have no problem recommending this to someone just starting out, or even the seasoned smoker (if you like aros)

Nice tobacco. Love aromatics, this one mildly flavored. The fruitiness and vanilla can be smelled in the pouch as well as tasted when smoked with smaller sips. Not too moist as well. Room note is just pleasant
