Probably similar to Consolidated's version of the same tobacco with the same name. I find this one to be a great cool mild all day smoke. Good room notes, though my wife doesn't like this as much as some of the other dark aromatics. I don't see the cinnamon and nutmeg in there really, but I'm not exactly after them either. Once dried properly this burns cool all the way to the bottom. Surprised me when I got some ash actually. All in all a great smoke... the only reason i gave it a 3 out of 4 was that it leaves a lingering aftertaste the next morning. Not real strong, but more than some others. I don't smoke daily, so waking up with pipe mouth is something that bothers me... for most people, that's probably not the case, but for me, it's enough to drop it one star.

Out in the garage, not enjoying the steamy Houston heat tonight. But I am enjoying Sutliff's Black Spice in my Savinelli Tre 321.
Black Cavendish flavored with cinnamon and nutmeg. And I have to say it is very tasty. This is not an in your face aromatic. Which is good, because I think cinnamon and nutmeg could be quite overpowering.
This is a mild, flavorful smoke. Not sure I'd want to smoke it all day, as the spice might get to be a bit cloying. But as a morning smoke in place of a calorie laden doughnut, or in the evening with tea as a non-caloric dessert, yum.
A simple aromatic that isn't your run of the mill vanilla, rum, whiskey, or cherry.
I like it and will be looking to get more when my sample is gone.

Sutliff must have a base topping that goes into many of their aromatics (speculation here) because I can taste and smell "sutliff" if that makes any sense. This smoke is nice, but it's nothing that stands out. The taste was super subtle to the point where I could not point anything out. The room note was nice, but it was more of a general, soft cinnamon and sugar smell, nothing that stood out as a potent spice. Would probably be a excellent base for DIY blending...maybe. However, it wasn't anything special.

I really wanted to like this. It sounded like perfection for a topped black cav. Bag note: Ok. Not quite what I was expecting, more of S.V black cav, or S.Pride black cav, which is fine, but again: "spice". Smoke? The most nasty flavor to date yet for a tobacco in my mouth. Pure 100% playdough. No matter how dry, how hot I fired, bowl size, draw length, etc. Yuck. My most depressing experience to date with a tobacco. Can not comment on room note as I have smoked this one alone. I will continue to experiment with this, as I have 8oz. Perhaps as a blender it will serve a purpose.
Maybe mix with the horribly bland Golden Extra (12oz) I have left 50/50.

As a newer pipe smoker, I am mainly exploring the different blends (I favor aromatic blends, although I am dipping my toes into the non-aromatic blends now) to find what I like. Opening the bag, what I smelled was spicy tobacco, its hard to describe but it wasn't what I was expecting. I really didn't taste any flavors in this, was a bland smoke. I did not have any tounge-bite with this blend.

Really good Cavendish with a toasty flavor. Some vanilla, but not overpowering. The cinnamon is present but mildly noted. I get the nutmeg in more predominant doses. Also detect a bit of clove on my pallet. Not a nicotine bomb but ample for my taste. Takes fire well and has a consistent profile throughout the smoke. Not goopy or too moist. All in all a good change of pace smoke for me.

This is a pretty decent smoke. It looks as though their are about four companies making it? Anyhow, it smoked fairly dry, was somewhat sweet, and didnt disappoint. If you love aromatics, and want a little something extra, give this one a try, I think you will like it, and so will your neighbors!
