An aromatic blend of black and golden tobaccos. A soft and exceptionally mellow smoke. Delightful, aromatic taste. A true pleasure journey.

Ce tabac est un succès de Mac Baren, si on aime les brins sucrés, liquoreux et légèrement vanillés. Il se fume plus agréablement dans un petit foyer que dans un grand. Il laisse un plaisir de fumage agréable, malgré un point de faiblesse tenant à son côté un peu chimique mais qui ne préjudicie pas aux saveurs.

This is a very pleasant mild smoking tobacco. It has a nice , not too sweet taste, and does not have a bite. The room note is nice and you can smoke it often. it is a high quality pipe tobacco.

This was my first venture to the 7 Seas line from Mac Baren. I enjoyed it a lot. Burned evenly to a white ash and didn't give any tongue bite. A nice flavor of vanilla, rum, and either caramel or maple syrup was noted. The Mrs. liked the room note a lot. Definitely could be a go to or all day smoke. It is a little more moist than usual though, so I'm sure most people will prefer to dry it out a bit before smoking.

I love this blend. It makes for a great after dinner smoke, as it has just enough taste to cap a meal very nicely. Absolutely no bite and stays lit with about 15 minutes of drying. I recieved this as a sample from smokingpipes.com and will purchase a pound very shortly.

The one thing that I have noticed about Mac Baren blends is there are very subtle flavours in their tobacco blends. I can take 3 different pipes, fully cleaned, fill them up, and get 3 differing tastes from the same tobacco. It all depends on the cut of the briar, the tightness of the grain, and also on the lingering flavours of the previous tobacco.
That being said, this 7 Seas Royal blend is very smooth, and so full of flavor in my Jacopo. As such, I gave my Jac a salt and rum soak, fully cleaned and lightly sanded the interior so that I could harness the full flavor of this magnificent blend. I now devote this Jacopo specifically to this blend of tobacco.
The room note is most excellent, and it brings to mind seaside taverns of old, just as it's name implies. This may not be a blend for every day smoking, but it is wonderful for an evening after a nice dinner.
I daresay that many of the reviewers who have given this a 1-2 star review are those who either are not keen on any type of flavored tobaccos, or who are smoking this tobacco in a cheap, low-grade pipe, or in a pipe whose cake is that of a different type.

I really enjoyed this new MacBaren blend. It's flavor is delightful, but not overpowering. The tobacco packed, lit and smoked very nicely. I ejoyed my first bowl from start to finish, with no roughness or bite at the end. This one of the few light aromatic tobaccos that I have tried that tastes as good as it smells. I would highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys light, pleasant smoking aromatic blends.
