My wife and I have smoked most all the Sutliff Private Stock blends and I like this best of all the Aromatics ! The black Cherry Flavoring is just right . It burns cool and slow and you can taste the Black Cherry and something else . The room note is super pleasant . It wont bite .It's a lovely blend

I just finished a tin of St. George's blend and I like it. If even 25% of aromatics were even close to this, I would become an aromatic man. (Well, maybe I am already an aromatic man, especially coming in after working a day in the woods. That may explain my single status, too.)
The base is about 50-50 Cavendish and Virginia, so no tongue bite. Even more, it doesn't get hot. Some propylene glycol here, but I only had to leave this out one day in a sunny window. Compare that to three days to a week for most aromatics. It burns pretty well and leaves about 15% dottle.
I can't say too much about the scent because I just don't smell it on my own. But the flavor is just fine.
So in the Sutliffe line, this would be a good aromatic choice. I prefer the flavor of French Quarter and fell in love with Blue Danube, but both can bite a bit where St. George's does not. None of the three are cake masters, either.
