The aroma from the pouch is a little stronger than the taste of the tobacco. There's a light vanilla note or two playfully merging with the rich cherry topping, which sublimate the tobaccos. The lighter Virginia cavendish provides a little grass and citrus. The brown sugary black cavendish is the more obvious varietal. The strength is a couple of steps past the mild mark, while the taste level is a couple of slots past the center of mild to medium. Has a extremely mild nicotine hit. Won't bite or get harsh. Has no dull moments. The tobacco is a little moist, but really needs no dry time. Burns cool, clean, and a tad slow with a very smooth, consistent sweet and lightly creamy flavor. Leaves little moisture in the bowl. Requires an average number of relights, and will burn to ash. Has a very pleasant after taste, and your friends will enjoy the smell. A fairly dry smoking all day smoke.

This is one of the very few aromatic blends that I like. It smokes cool and has a pleasant, light cherry liquor flavoring: nothing overwhelming at all, like many cherry blends are. It is good to go right out of the jar/baggie or can take a bit of drying if one prefers. It burns well, without a lot of fuss, down to a fine gray ash and it not wet or goopy at all. The room note is much like the tin note (a nice cherry-ish smell) that I can pick up on, which is unusual for me, and lingers a bit. But since it is a pleasant note that is not a negative at all. If you are looking for a pleasant aromatic, one that might remind you of old timers from your fond memories, a non-overwhelming cherry, or a blend that the folks you are around will appreciate, you'll enjoy, and won't bite, I recommend giving this blend a try.

Sutliff - Black Cordial Z50.
It's a very coarse mixture, nicely hydrated, with about 85-15% black to brown. Although it's really coarse, there isn't any twigs.
If I'm honest, when I lit my first bowl I felt unsure as to whether or not I had the right tobacco. At first the cherry topping is hard to notice, but there's an easy to ascertain vanilla flavour. After about a quarter of a bowl the cherries become slightly clearer, but still nowhere near as loud as the vanilla. Mechanically it's faultless: even burn, cool smoke, and no tongue bite.
The room-note pleasant, and the nicotine's mild.
A four star aromatic:
Highly rcommended.

Most cherry related blends have 2 things in common. 1. The pouch aroma does not transfer well to a flavorful smoke. 2. They typically bite...and some pretty badly. Z50 Black Cordial is exceptional on both fronts. It lights up easily and burns well. The cordial topping is present not only in the pouch, but provides a pleasurable smoke from beginning to end. Nicely balanced, zero bite, sweet and very flavorful. I will be getting more of this. Highly recommended for you aromatic lovers.

This is one of those rare aromatics that doesn't smoke wet or bite. Pouch aroma is wonderful and comes through in the smoke. This will definitely come through as a Crowd Pleaser. I don't get a cherry note when I smell this blend, I get Blueberry, perhaps my own odd taste and I certainly do not dispute those who smell a cherry note. If anyone gets a Blueberry note from this blend, please post it here. I'd like to hear your opinion. I bought one pound of this in the original Sutliff bag and it had not been opened by the Tobacconist. Thus, my sampling was not bled-down on aroma, as many samples can get, with repeated opening whilst being sold by the ounce. Something about this aroma is near magical for me and my tastes. One of those fragrances that makes me excited about smoking my pipe every time I smell it. Something like the "Kid at Christmas" feeling. Enjoy!! 4 Stars!!
Cheers All,,,!!

A lovely cherry-chocolate blend with some actual tobacco flavor too. For an aromatic it burnt easily straight from the tin. The flavor lasted throughout the bowl. Very similar to Cult's Blood Red Moon but has a milder tobacco flavor.

I cannot say enough about this tobacco, this one has it all! Wonderful pouch note, a pleasant smoke, with a great aftertaste. It packs well, and although it was a little difficult to get lit, once lit it required no re-lites and just needed to be tamped down a couple of times. A pleasant break from the syrupy cherry blends that dominated the market. No matter how hard I push it, NO BITE. If I could only smoke one tobacco, this would be it!

There are only 3 cherry blends that I have ever enjoyed in my 6 years as a pipe smoker. This is one of them. I wanted to smoke this blend 3 different times in 3 different pipes before reviewing. Each smoke was better than the last. During the first bowl, I sensed more hints of vanilla and the cherry gradually stepped in to play. The next two bowls, the cherry stood out more and vaguely reminded me of a cherry Jolly Rancher. This blend burns extremely well and smokes cool, which is surprising for an aromatic. It does not bite and I would say it is a very well balanced blend. If you are an aromatic smoker and you enjoy cherry, you'll love this blend.

Tastey aromatic. Smells like dark cherries in bag, smokes sweet with taste or mild cherry. Very pleasant room note. Can smoke hot and possibly bite if you're not careful. Tastey smoke! No dottle in my pipe.

This is my first review so bare with me. I started smoking pipe about a month ago. This is my fourth pouch and by far my favorite thus far. The smell from the pouch is a very pleasant mix of chocolate and cherry but not over powering the scent of the tobacco it self. This tobacco seemed to burn very evenly compared to the other blends I've tried. The scent of chocolate and cherry translated well into the flavor of the smoke which was surprising to me as well. Good mouth feel as well.

If you're a fan of heavily-flavored aromatics, then this is definitely a tobacco to consider. This is a rough cut blend that packs very easily. It burned fairly hot and left some dottle in the pipe but that could be down to my technique more than the tobacco itself. Room note is excellent; I doubt you'll hear a complaint from anyone passing by.
You'll taste a whole lot of sweetness (a bit too much for me personally) at the first puff with plenty of cherry & vanilla flavor. This sweetness will stick around for about half of your smoke, but the cherry topping remains detectable all the way to the bottom of the bowl. The cavendish tobacco itself is fairly detectable but definitely not the star of the show, adding some pleasant bitterness & backbone to the cherry flavor.
My personal taste for cherry aromatics has been dampened due to a poor experience with an infamous black cherry OTC blend, but if you really like cherry then this bulk tobacco will fit the bill.

This is a very pleasant cherry blend bulk aromatic, it is indeed what it claims to be. Of all aromatics I find that I might have a preference for cherry (to my surprise) and if that is true for you then give this a go. I will say up front that since I am not a several bowl a day smoker that price point is not my top concern and since this doesn't compare to Cult Blood Red Moon which is one of the best cherry aromatics on the market I will probably not order this again. This is mild, cherry flavorful, bite free, pleasing in aroma, and very inexpensive- all good!

Amazing that this tobacco has all the nice things that you would like in an aromatic blend...nice smell from the bag (vanilla and cherry) but light and not heavy. The 4 oz bag that I had was not overly sticky (think 1Q) and burned to a nice fine ash with little resin left over in the pipe. Slightly sweet and pleasing room note. Note, no bite from this tobacco if smoked slow and had a mild pleasing taste. This is an easy all day smoke. Currently my favorite.
Update, I bought 32 ounces bulk Sutliff Black Cordial from Pipes and Cigars and was surprised at how sticky it was. Not the same stuff that I got from the tobacconist shop. Anyway, I tried to dry some in the oven a 100 F on a cookie tray but it remained sticky. Hard to keep lit but it did taste the same. Makes me wonder if the smaller bag I got was a different manufacturer, Lane maybe?

I am primarily a smoker of English blends, but like most of us I think it’s nice to mix it up now and then. This is very flavorful without being overwhelming or goopy. It has quickly become my favorite aromatic.

This is a good go to I like to have. The flavor is as advertised and makes me keep coming back for more. I taste cherry, chocolate, and the liquor flavor does not disappoint. The room note elf says that is has chocolate and cherry in the room note. Also, this one is high on my bread scent chart. Solid smoke by itself or in a personal blend.

This makes a nice change - I don't get much of a cherry taste from it but rather a smooth caramel and chocolate even coffee taste. It burns very well in the bowl and can be puffed upon really slowly to savour the taste. It's also one of the few tobaccos that gets a thumbs up in terms of the room note from the other half. And that's high praise indeed since she usually reckons my tobacco smells like shit. It also leaves a pleasing and creamy aftertaste in the mouth - yes, I think I enjoy this stuff.

Both the burn and flavor were consistent throughout the smoke. The room note was strong, but is very pleasant. A sweeter smoke, hints of vanilla and a solid, but not overpowering cherry flavor.

A tasty sweet aromatic in the vein of Capt.Black or 1Q, etc., as far as sweetness and body. The difference is a cherry finish predominately instead of vanilla, without being horribly cherry. Much less cherry than TK6. More like a cherry "something". Not really a chocolate covered cherry but more like a cherry brownie? or pastry? Pouch note, flavor, and room note surprisingly seem to stay pretty close to each other. Room note has always been received very well. My bag was quite moist, and needed multiple lightings. Left some goop, but that is normal with new bags of heavily aromatic blends. I've blended cherry blends with black cavendish, vanilla cavendish, etc, experimenting with different levels for my own cherry aromatic. Honestly, this is basically what I was shooting for. When you're in the mood for a sweet smoke, but not a full cherry based, this is a good one.

A mild, flavorful, bite free American style aromatic. I’m in agreement with another reviewer who mentioned a blueberry taste/aroma. I don’t really get cherry as much as I do a general berry essence. Some vanilla in the background really softens the tang from the fruit notes. A bit damp when purchased, so I’d recommend drying just a bit. However, too much dry time greatly mutes the aromatic qualities to it’s detriment. Perfect aromatic for when pleasant room note is a consideration. Scratches the itch for something mild and unobtrusive. A good deal of the aromatic flavoring comes through in the smoke if the pace is kept gentle. Only slight ding on this one is the rather chunky/course cut which is not my favorite. As an aromatic, it’s excellent and accomplishes everything I’m looking for in the style.

This was one I picked up during a bulk sale where I grabbed a bunch of 1oz samples to try.
The bag note makes you want to eat it. Cherry and vanilla. Not overly sticky and take a light very easily. The smoke to me comes across as a nice Cherry/Vanilla mix. As long as not pushed it doesn't burn overly hot. The room note is wonderful and will get compliments.

Perhaps one of the best tin notes possible. The scent of semi sweet chocolate, syrup and candied cherries immediately enters the nose upon opening the bag. The flavor isn't as strong as the aroma or the room note, but it's certainly there. Upon smoking I also detect the flavor of molasses or dark brown sugar along with the flavors suggested by the tin note. The tobacco arrived slightly sticky or "too moist" for my liking but quickly dried when left out and burned well with no overwhelming moisture when smoked. Should you enjoy flavored tobacco this is a must try. And even if you don't, sip it slowly and it may change your mind. Average number of relights and if you puff it like a cigar it will get hot but I didn't receive any bite.
