Torben Dansk Blue Note

(2.71)
Mild, golden Virginias, that possesses a naturally high sweetness, are mixed with a mild black cavendish. A fresh flavor of exotic fruits and a touch of bourbon vanilla is added to make this an extraordinarily mild blend.
Notes: Bourbon Vanilla is a variety of the vanilla plant. There is no bourbon (alcohol) in this blend.

Found a tin of this lying forlornly on a back shelf in a tobacconist in Johannesburg and it being a total unknown snapped it up. And a good snap it was...for an aromatic. The tin smell is probably the best I ever smelled: chocolaty sweet, caramel, fudge, almost an ice cream smell. The initial taste is not far from the tin aroma, which is quite nice for an aromatic. A rich sweetness, not a candy sweetness. Again chocolate and almost a cappuccino taste dominates. Unfortunately like most aromatics, the taste wanes towards the second half of the bowl, but never turns rank or sour. Room note is such that my wife chided me from the kitchen for not making her a cup of hot chocolate as well! 🙂 Overall I'm not such an aromatic fan anymore, but for an early morning light smoke with my morning coffee this is not bad at all. 3 stars.

Dear god, my teeth hurt from the smell of sugar. If blindfolded you would have a hard time identifying which was my pipe, or a bowl of Fruity Pebbles. For how sweet it is, you would expect it to be simply dripping with syrup topping, but it is oddly not gummy to the touch.

Once lit, everything begins to calm down, though there isn't much subtly to the flavor, just pure uncut white crystal sugar. It is a dessert smoke in the purest sense, as hours afterwards your saliva will remain sweet. Others in the room will love it, since it doubles as an amazing air odorizer.

On my quest for the best vanilla aromatic, this one did not hit the mark, there Sweet Vanilla Honeydew did a much better job (and to this day is my favorite vanilla).

oh man...well, its sweet, I give it that. And the room note is fantastic. Otherwise there isn't much good to say about this. Its like if twinkies were a pipe tobacco.

While this blend only has Virginia listed without any Burley it is a surprisingly smooth non-irritating mild but flavorful smoke. And that just about covers it. Blue Note smells wonderful in the pouch (I purchased it from bulk)and as you smoke it. The tobacco taste is very muted so I can see why some would shun this. However it is there in a nice pleasant way coated in a mild but rich sweet but hard to identify flavoring. I experience no tongue bite with this aromatic tobacco. It's a very nice, mild, unobtrusive and friendly tobacco that is nice to gently puff away on while driving. Recommended.

a danish aromatic at its best. its an important thing to keep that in mind because if you cannot tollerate aromatic mixtures then you better off from this particular mixture.the tobacco smell reminds my of mac baren cube and sir walter aromatic, yet it smoke better than both. The mixture is of different cuts and take some time to learn how to pack it to your liking but in the end its not rocket science. Burns evenly and relatively quickly. Sweet to the taste and the room note is pleasant. If you like aromatic mixture this one is highly recommended.

Good quality aromatic. The smell in the tin is amazing, makes you want to eat it with a fork! Packs and burns well. Has a very berry like taste to me. If you're looking for a good quality, tasty, nice smelling aromatic, this is a good choice!

Just had it for the first time. Found it to be a wonderful morning or all day smoke. Nice even burn, white ash, dry. Nice balanced taste.

Flavor? What flavor? Like smoking stale air. In fact, you can get the same profile by going to the nearest gas / petrol station and putting your quarter into the air pump and inhaling.

DISCLAIMER: DO NOT try this at home kids. The example given should only be conducted by professional air hose aficionados.

See you at the car wash.

10-15-04 I usually give a detailed review, but this blend just did not work for me at all. Smelled good in the tin, but it wasn't tobacco that I smelled! This just burned too hot for me regardless of what pipe I used and the flavor did not taste good to me once flame was applied. I much prefer "Evening Stroll" for a vanilla aromatic. Sorry! After half a 50g. tin, gave the rest away. Rating: 1 out of 5 points, to each, his own...
