Torben Dansk Blue Note

If Juicyfruit were a tobacco, this would be it. Excellent base blend, horrible topping. That's in my opinion, though. It's very distinctive, I'll give it that, and some people really love this stuff.

My natural instinct upon opening this up was to try to place the aroma. I read someone describe the smell as a grape bubble gum..that would probably be more accurate.

I popped a tin at the local tobacco shop and some old guy loaded up his pipe, did a ton of complaining and just plain gave up. He promptly bought a four ounce bulk latakia house blend to "correct" his pipe. Then he gave me a scolding. It was hilarious.

What more can I say? If you're an aromatic buff or want something adventurous, you've got to try this.

Fruity vanilla taste. Fruity vanilla room note. Very wife friendly tobacco and gets positive comments from her when I smoke this. I tend to tire of this one rather quickly however. 1 tin at a time and I'm good for a while. The tobacco quality is excellent and you can taste the VA's after 1/2 bowl when the flavoring burns off. I've gotta smoke this one carefully as it tends to nip me if I overheat it. All in all its decent but I have my other "fruity" tobaccos I prefer more. And they cost much less!

If you like vanilla-cased tobaccos, this is for you. As far as quality it's good indeed, neither hot not wet if you don't rush too much, and the flavour in the tin is resembled enough during the smoke. Pay attention, because the flavour will stay in your pipe for a long time.

Strong vanilla; coconut scent on opening can. Burns dry after initial light and no goo in bowel. Taste much like scent with vanilla. coconut and some other fruity taste. Actually quite good aromatic with underlying quality tobacco note. Not everyone's cup of tea.

WARNING: WILL STAY WITH PIPE!

i was ready to hate this one as soon as i cracked the tin. an overwhelming sweet aroma nearly bowled me over! it actually smells a lot like another dan tobac, sweet vanilla honeydew. like any aromatic, it is a little harder to pack and light than an english or burley blend. be prepared for several relights before you hit the bottom of the bowl and it will probably leave a bit of wet dottle. took my first draw and was surprised at how well i liked this blend, even with all the sweetness. it's not something i could smoke all the time, as it would wear out its' welcome in a hurry. but for a change of pace, an after dinner smoke, or one that your company won't complain about, it works very well. be sure to have a dedicated pipe for it, this is one that lingers for a long time. one other note to all you single guys out there; the ladies absolutely LOVE this blend. wish i could have had some 30 years ago! two stars, but it might be better for your social occasions.

This is one of several aromatics I've tried with a strong plum type sweetness as a background. This is too sweet for me, and I'm an aromatics guy! I didn't find the bourbon or vanilla. I had to let this dry out as it was quite wet, and that also toned it down a bit

After hearing so much about this baccy, I just had to try it. I'm not disappointed!

The pouch aroma of this tobacco smells a lot like butterscotch. In my opinion, the smoking flavor tastes like a sweet butterscotch. Room note seems to be butterscotch and vanilla.

If you're into aromatics, you might want to at least sample this tobacco.

I must say that I purchased this tin from the reviews of another website, let just say that the reviewers over there must have completely different tastes.

Moisture content was a little moist in the tin but a few days in the jar worked wonders. The aroma was full of fruity sweetness enhanced by vanilla, enough to make your mouth water.

Blue note packed easy, held a light nicely and smoked straight through the bowl leaving a light-gray ash.

Emerging flavors were vanilla, vanilla, vanilla, and a fruity sourness that progressed all the way up the bit. The tobacco did seem to burn a little hot around the mid bowl but mellowed back down (almost like I just had packed it slightly tight mid bowl).

So far the only comments I have received were that blue note carried the ?traditional pipe aroma?. If you are looking for a crowd pleaser this may work. In the right crowd this would definitely be a pleaser but you can never make everyone happy.

I would recommend this to those who like the fruity aromatics, but I don?t plan on stocking it in the future?. But don?t get me wrong if I found a tin in my mailbox or received it as a gift I would find a way to enjoy it!

GOOD FOR SMOKING IN PUBLIC!!! Best smelling tin I've ever opened but I find it way too sweet to smoke on any kind of regular basis. It smokes ok, but bites my tongue and jaws. One positive thing: while not being a good smoke, this blend will impress others with it's sweet smell. UPDATE: I have the same tin that I bought 6 months ago that's dried out some; now that it's much drier, it doesn't bite my tounge any more.
