Notes: Special Virginia tobacco from South America is fermented for many hours to create this dark black cavendish. A light caramel mixed with sweet fruit flavors gives this blend a round and mild aroma.

The fermented Virginia black cavendish is the sole varietal. A little grass, bread, tangy sweet citrus, sugar and light lemon are its characteristics. The rich caramel/vanilla-ish topping takes a small lead with sweet berrys and light cherry playing a support role. It also has a typical Danish spice note. The strength is a step short of the center of mild to medium. The taste is medium. The nic-hit is mild. Won’t bite or get harsh. Has no rough edges. It’s a little moist, but I did not dry it as is my custom. Burns cool, clean and a little slow with a very smoothly consistent flavor that extends to pleasantly lingering after taste. The room note is very pleasant. Leaves little dampness in the bowl, and requires a couple more than an average number of relights. Can be an all day smoke. Three stars.

Well I must be a freak, since I really enjoyed this low scoring tobacco. In fact, I've had good luck with almost every Newminster blend I've picked up.

The jet black Cavendish reminded me of Mac Baren's 7 Seas Black shredded rubber, but with even more mouth watering aroma. The Vanilla had the additional hook of 'something' fruity - without the smog of some overly topped, ghost laden, Cherry - akin to a lower proof flavored rum.

The thin cut was moist, free of unruly bits, yet more rubbery than damp. It fired up well enough, and did a great job smoldering. All the while pumping out a deep velvety smoke that was light on nicotine/bite, yet full of rich flavor. This wasn't an overly sweet Vanilla, but certainly passed for candy, and left a sugary film in the mouth.

Not the kind of blend you will get much in the way of natural tobacco taste, but easily one of my favorite lower priced bulk Aromatics I will be reordering, simply for the great job of translating smell-to-smoke.

I ordered 8 oz.s of No. 47 Danish Black from the fine folks at Pipes and Cigars. I saw this in a B&M and gave it a whiff, ran it through my fingers, and it seemed like a good Black Cav. Something I could smoke inside without the smell bothering the wife and kids. Got it today. after a couple of bowls, I am pleasantly surprised. Smells great in the bag, and after I loaded my Viking and puffing without a light, I knew this would taste really good. A vanilla, rum smell. The taste lit is even better, but the thing I like best about this blend is that it does not set my tongue on fire like some Danish blends. Not as heavily cased as, say Lane BCA. It smoked down to a clean ash, and does not gurgle. Have had many compliments on the smell. Even in public, which in this climate of PC is a shock. Overall, a very good smoke. The price is nice as well.
