I don't know about this to be honest. I've had Super value and Smokers Pride "Vanilla" and they both tasted more vanilla than this. To me this is a relabeled bag of black Cavendish. Squeeze a handful of prunes as hard as you can, and look at that glop, and this will be similar in both visual and stickiness. It's not bad, but its just so so to me. I mixed some with a measure of SWR that was getting a bit dry, approx. 50/50, and basically made general atmosphere flavor. To be so goopy, it had very little vanilla odor in the bag as well. I bought this as a diff black cav mixer mainly, but honestly, figured I'd sneak a bowl every now and then due to the supposed vanilla flavor. Meh, just a black Cavendish mixer.

Normally I like an aromatic that is a bit stronger and brings a bit more "body" into the taste. This felt a bit flat for me. Was rather wet and needed drying out a fair bit to make the smoke more satisfying. I think the coarse cut likely contributes to this. When the moisture is balanced it is a very enjoyable smoke, smooth with the odd whiff of vanilla amongst the tobacco. Otherwise it can smoke too hot when wet and tastes bitter and "wooden". I found this one higher maintenance than other aromatics.

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 vanilla with some spices, but it was not a heavy scent. The flavor I tasted was very light vanilla with not really any of the spices from the tin note. I did not have any tounge-bite with this blend.
