The vanilla flavoring is very nice, but I wouldn't mind a little tobacco flavor to go with it. There just isn't any. It's a real shame because the vanilla is about perfect.

This was quite a boring smoke, one dimensional and weak. Flat, I'd say. But, if one is after a very mild, plain vanilla tobacco with no trace of the leaf below the topping this might be for you. Mechanically it is a smooth blend, so if the lack of flavour does not deter you go ahead and try.

Taste: Vanilla, or at least something sweet. Nothing else.

Mechanics: Needs some drying but not much, burns fairly well and doesn't bite. Mild in nicotine.

It's just OK. Smooth, vanilla sweet, with maybe something slightly sour. Like a vanilla green tea almost? Doesn't bite, nothing nasty, makes a lovely room note.

Not one I'd really want to get again though.

You can quote my Peter Stokkebye's Dansk Black review almost word for word for this blend. And now I have to come up with at least nine more words! (oops! that was thirteen).

Cornell & Diehl - Green River Vanilla

This tobacco is more boring than shopping with your wife. Two stars only because there's still worse out there.

I was given a sample of this from a buddy when I was in a vanilla aromatic phase. This is high quality Burley and comes extremely moist for a C&D blend. It's all black and has a light topping of vanilla. It lit and burned fairly well and the taste was mainly burnt sugar more than anything else. Not a bad aromatic, but it smoked a little wet and there wasn't enough vanilla flavoring. Fred Stoker's Vanilla Custard (or something liike that) seemed identical and was half the price for a pound. I prefer C&D's Aromatics when they don't have a heaping of black cavendish...
