Dan Tobacco Da Vinci

Dan Tobacco has yet to let me down. I love...well....like McClelland and other aromatic brands but I have yet to find a brand like CAO Dan Tobacco where I can pick up a tin of any of their offerings and be 100% satisfied. I bought this Da Vinci last week and never thought twice of what I might think. Great casing, great flavor.If I could give it 6 out of 5 stars, I would.

Nice aromatic, can be smoked easily without tongue bite. Medium flavoured, nice and elegant smoke and room note. Non smokers around you will be appreciated. Worth to try it

I did not do this start your writing with "Da Vinci Dan Tobacco" , since the same name tobacco products and Cornell & Diehl. One of my friends it was during his visit to Zagreb offered this tobacco and I liked the room note - he was rich, aromatic, but not tiring. Later, I tried another pipe from s friend and I was even better ... No, not no longer, the last time in Graz, I bought a bag of tobacco and kept on the table. I smoked latiakias and so I looked at the bag, and bag me ... Before about a week when I was already fed up of all possible latakias and bald hadeded teachers, I decided, and opened it ... First - the smell, something between bourbon, light Cavendish and something sour, but pleasantly sour ... more on that later. Tobacco magnificently large cut, see a golden Virginia, Burley and Cavendish ... Thus, tobacco smoke is a great, genuine, mature aromatic dessert, but right now that out loud, not too strong aromatic, aromatic, but let's say that goes well with an afternoon tea ... Of course it is in the tobacco and artificial flavors, but very mild and tolerable, so that even the biggest opponents aromatic tobaccos not have to lay pipe after this tobacco. Otherwise it sour note that I previously mentioned, really gives "retrogusto" chianti and this feeling all the time smoking on the palate and tongue with a slight but noticeable aroma of good whiskey. However I doubt that the tobacco served with the Chianti "Colli Senesi" as suggested by the inscription on the bag before it was Denmark alchemy, but very discreet and tasteful ... Otherwise, this tobacco would recommend our offspring Heather (when clean pipe) as an excellent "second echelon tobacco" - after the Original Choice ... Tobacco burns well and developed a great cold smoke ... As a curiosity - our Herr Dreier in Graz selling it as "mein Tobak" in bags of 100 grams for 14 euros, and the original bag of 50 grams is 8 euros. Recommendation - Prepare before smoking another pipe, because you will attract - yet, yet.

Rating - the best among aromatic I smoked the last ten years. For each recommendation ... Only the price - but can not always have everything!

This blend is a wonderful aromatic,this blend is for those who bear a sweet tooth but not sickeningly sweet!I personally would recommend Davinci because it's a delightfully tasty aromatic blend in both taste and smell.My tin doesn't have alot of moisture which was a good sign,it can take 2 lights to get it fully ignited and well puffed... I expected this from a black cavendish.Now the black cavendish is a real treat as well,goes very nice with the chianti I feel there was no need for the virginia as this blend is a very dark and mysterious aromatic.This is definitely a top 10 in the aromatics dept. and for Black Cavendish it's in my top 5.Not recommended for smokers of 'simple' aromatics.

Mild in strength but an elegant blend. The Virginia shines the most and the special processing presents a rather bitter sweet smoke with some nice tartness. Not an everyday sort of blend for me but certainly one with a visit every now and then.

Disappointing! This is an ordinary flavored mixture. A classic flavored Black Cavendish with the addition of Tuscan red wine, but unfortunately wine does not make the difference. Essentially this blend does not stand out for its quality, since it is the result of a very risky compromise (flavored black cavendish with red wine). It doesn’t convince me at all. Banal, mediocre, only for aromatic taste’ lovers. In my personal rating system (from 1 to 10) my score is 7 and two stars.

I opened this tin with some trepidation, as I'm not a big fan of aromatics, however, I can't let tobacco go to waste. Really, I didn't know what to expect as the reviews varied wildly on this one, but I was pleasantly surprised. The tobacco was slightly wet (which is typical of many aro's) and nicely colored, light baccy's, medium baccy's and some dark baccy's. The nose was simply outstanding from the tin, and this carried through after the light. It lit well and poured out gobs of aroma. Let there be no doubt, this is a true aromatic. A good aro. The taste reminded me of a cross between Revelation (the Match I recently puffed) and a black cav, and, something else (what that something else is I couldn't say). I didn't really catch much of the alcohol additive. It did burn hot especially towards the end (I had to spit frequently) and the backwash was a bit acrid, but, other than those two negatives I enjoyed this blend. It's sure to be a crowd pleaser, too. Frankly, this is one of the better aro's I've tried and I heartily recommend it (especially to aro puffers).

Keep on piping!

Thankfully, I didn't have to pay a dime for this tin. It was mistakenly sent to me by Pipesandcigars.com, and when I notified them of the error, they told me to just keep it since it would not be worth the return postage to send it back. They then sent me the tobacco I had actually ordered, "Devil's Holiday." Kudos to pipesandcigars.com, they have great customer service!

Is anybody else wondering if some of these pipe tobacco manufacturers, when they produce aromatics, are focusing on what the stuff smells like when it burns while virtually completely sacrificing taste? It sure seems that way to me. Another reviewer stated that this could have been flavored paper for all he knew, which I think really hit the nail on the head.

God only knows how many bottles of wine I have consumed in my 47 years, and I detected NONE in this tobacco. There was a hint of vanilla, and that's about all I got out of it.

Not for me.

There is nothing wrong with this tobacco. But in my opinion, there is very little going right with it either.

Da Vinci was the first tin of tobacco I ever bought. The tin aroma was sweet, with the chianti standing out. It packed okay, lit okay and smoked okay, but nothing stood out and grabbed me. So I set it aside and sampled other better and worse tobaccos.

I cam back to this tin, wondering if my slightly more experienced palatte might appreciate it now.

Nope.

It's just as boring as I remember it. No flaws, no virtures, no hits, no runs, no errors. Perhaps my single star rating is a bit harsh. After all, truly bad tobaccos earn their bad ratings. But I honestly can't "somewhat recommend" this tobacco either.
