Sutliff Tobacco Company Molto Dolce

I believe Sutliff creates some great blends and I personally hold Molto Dolce as King of the Aros.

This stuff tastes great! It is rich and creamy, packs great flavor and quite frankly doesn't disappoint an aro smoker. I never had any problems with it (drying, bite, after taste, etc.)

I highly recommend this blend to the aro smoker.

I picked up this blend after hearing an add on pipes magazine radio show (podcast) the lady's voice in the commercial sold me - j.k. Haha. I looked up reviews here and saw the good ratings (esp. Jiminks) and thought why not. I bought a tin here in RI (expensive $17!) but can get it online much cheaper it's the taxes. So I am smoking my first bowl, although it may be premature to judge, I am really really liking this blend!! If it were based on my first bowl alone it would be a favorite already! I will say it is, as others stated, very wet upon opening and crackles when lit however there is zero tongue bite, great taste, smell/room note. It stayed lit pretty well but did require relighting a few times. Overall if you like aromatics or have a sweet tooth at times give this a whirl! Happy Smoking!

Absolutely delicious aromatic. Got a free sample from an order of a custom pipe. It is fairly moist in the bag, but the smell was very nice. Vanilla and caramel. Lighting it up, you taste the vanilla and caramel immediately. It's not too strong, somewhat on the mild side. I can taste a faint bit of honey too. This reminds me of the Boswell aromatics like No Bite Delite (this has no bite either), or Pennsylvania Dutch treat. Very tasty and enjoyable sweet smoke when you want it.

This is like grabbing up a sorority girl up off the beach in her bikini and stuffing it into my pipe. With strong aromas of suntan lotions, coconut, coco, and vanillas with honey,I can actually taste the drunken sun burnt skin as the smoke progresses. This is one that I would avoid if I wanted a little alone time with my pipe, as every time I light it up all of the girls in my house want to hang out with me. And, inevitably, the topic of the beach arises. :::sigh::: I highly recommend this one, but not if you just want to get away from everyone.

I had to order a tin of this after hearing the praises of it. WOW. The tin aroma about knocked me over. A goopy, sticky mess. Surprisingly for as wet as it is it did light and burn really good. Not much for strength. Taste isn't that great. But the room note is fantastic. It makes a good air freshener, that's about it.

If you're coming to tr.com to find insight into a blend from a top-notch reviewer, skip this review altogether. This blend is so far out of my wheelhouse that I was nearly forced to smoke it. Was gifted about 5 bowls worth and I could only make it through 3... well... parts of 3. This black to dark, dark brown blend smelled in my baggie of vanilla and caramel, just as advertised. Extremely greasy to the touch when loading.

Firing it up, what's this? A Rice Krispies serenade? Testament to the overabundance of Propylene Glycol, I presume. Indeed the predominant flavor was of a chemical nature, up and down the bowl. The vanilla and caramel flavor was wispy and only peaked through at various moments. What little aromatic flavor it had did last throughout the bowl but overall this is a type of tobacco I loathe. And yet, it didn't turn ashy tasting as some heavy aromatics do as the bowl gets into the second half. Still I had trouble finishing a bowl due to the prominent chemical flavor. 1/2 star for my taste, and yet, I have to say that this might be something interesting for basic aromatic fans. If you're tired of plain old vanilla, this adds a caramel flavor for a bit of added dimension. Think vanilla ice cream with a dash of caramel syrup to spice up the ol' standby. This clearly has a heavy fanbase and I'm giving it 2 stars because, as usual with overly sauced aromatics, I'm missing what fans of it are getting. Clearly this stuff is made for a different audience than I am part of, and I can somewhat recommend this to others. Try it for a change of pace. You might just love it!

The first thing one notices is the aroma from the tin. It is wonderfully delightful. It packed well and lit easy. The second thing is the room note. According to the gentlemen sitting next to me smoking cigars, it is very pleasant. An added bonus my wife loves the aroma. It is not offensive at all.

As for the taste, the sweetness of the Cavendish is present but not overpowering. I can taste a hint of the caramel and the vanilla of course and the honey as well, which is the flavor one is left with at the end of the puff. At least for me. It is slightly creamy (vanilla, I presume) and with the honey flavor, it lends itself to being more of a dessert smoke I would think.

The Smoke, some crackeling, which stopped once properly lit. I love the thick, rich and fragrant clouds of smoke this has. The tin aroma transfers itself over to the smoke, not like most aromatics, where it will dissipate. And the strong aroma stays throughout the smoke.

Overall this has all I like in an aromatic. From start to finish I loved this blend. Thick and rich, yet cool with no bite at all.

Smoked this right after finishing off a tin of their Mountain Pass blend. Got to say, I was majorly disappointed. The tobacco seemed a lesser quality than the latter, and very sticky. The smell almost made me think it was mentholated. Upon smoking it, I got the same feeling. Although it has vanilla up front, somewhere in the there made me feel like I was smoking a Newport. I am not completely turned off from it, just this pales in comparison to Mountain Pass blend in every way. On the bright side, room note was nice and zero tongue bite (and I smoke like a train).

Dessert in a pipe. It's smooth, sweet without being cloying, has a room note that makes smiling people walk over and ask what I'm smoking. In the tin it's so sumptuous that it almost seems a shame to burn it--just keep it in the tin, pop the top and smell it for a thrill. But no, the taste makes it worth the price, which is steep for me. Yes, it's wet to the point of gooey, and sometimes hard to light or keep lit. Nevertheless, it's my "treat yourself" smoke. If I could afford to smoke it all the time, that's probably what I'd do, and forsake all others. Sutliff doesn't make it in an 8oz. size, which is a true pity.
