This is quite similar to Peterson's De Luxe Mixture, which is also a bit of a love-it-or-hate-it blend. They both have the same tin-note and room-note, and even the same tin appearance (lovely black and gold ribbons), although De Luxe is a slightly sweeter smoke in my book. I like it, it is tasty and very well-behaved, and it didn't bite me at all. It's nice to have something mild to smoke in your larger pipes. Recommended for vanilla lovers.

My first experience of it was like that: Well it is a fine tobacco. It leaves a good smell. It burns so hot, and leaves a tongue bite as well. I recommend it for those who use carbon filter pipes; they won't be affected with the tongue bite, and will only enjoy the great taste.
BUT, with the passage of time, i got a totally different experience: After I applied salt cure to my pipe, the Red Mixture or the Mild Mixture burned much better. Of course the secret is not only because of the salt cure, something else also changed. I think my smoking pace was slower. You know it burned so smooth and dry till the end. It seldom went off. I enjoyed the taste so much. The tongue bite might be due to the packing; it might be packed tightly. Another reason of the tongue bite might be that the wetness, but the tobacco dries out in a short time after you open the tin, and you will soon (four days maybe in summertime) enjoy a smooth smoking without tongue bite.
Now I would prefer it even to the Danish Mixture as it is milder and much delicate in flavor. # to enjoy Davidoff MIld Mixture # ?All you need is to open the tin, pack a bowl then close it for about a week. After this period of time it gets dry inside the tin, and then you can enjoy a wonderful taste without a tongue bite whatsoever. Try this and you will know what I am talking about.

After having gone through all the Davidoff Brands, this indeed a great smoke. The room note is well tolerated, the blend feels typically Danish with a hint of vanilla and a after note of cinnamon. Its a great tin to have in ones arsenal, and have never regretted purchasing it, even though all Davidoff Brands are priced higher than their competitors. Incidentally, in our neck of the woods its known as the 'Red Mixture' - but then again whats in a name.

A very pleasant, light Danish-type aromatic. Easy to miss subtle aromas (vanilla and a fruitiness) and taste hints of a 'something else' I can't categorize. After the first couple of puffs, I tasted something akin to stale beer (!), but that (thankfully) disappeared. My sample lit easily, burned steadily and did not bite. A nice blend of Virginias with a light, fragrant aroma and taste that was consistent for the entire bowl. My sample did not seem to have the level of moisture or sweetness reported by other reviewers. However, if you are not into any type of aromatic, the room note might put you off (although, in my experience, women liked the aroma).
This is one of those 'love it or hate it' mixtures. IMHO, this tobacco is worth a try IF you are looking for a mild aromatic.
