Listen, if you bought Mocha, thats what you'll get. The name, the pouch aroma, the room note, and the taste, are all the same. Mocha! If you like Mocha, you will like this. If you don't, you won't. I like it, but not necessarily for every day or all day. It is sweet, but not as sweet as so many vanilla blends I have tried. It burns well, and if you smoke properly it should not bite. While I like the mocha taste (thats why I tried this) I recognize this is not a real premium smoke. There are those who would argue that no aromatic is a premium smoke. For the aromatic smoker there should me room for this blend in the mix. The very end of the bowl was a little stale in that it seemed to loose its flavor and mildness. This really should not be a problem unless you are breaking in a new pipe and need to smoke it down to the bitter end. Just enjoy this for what it is: A sweet, tasty, aromatic that won't bite your tongue off.

Unlike some of the other reviews, I like this blend - in moderation. It's a smooth smoking blend and the mocha flavouring is rich. If you like the taste and small of chocolate, it's an easy blend to smoke and has a pleasant room note. Seems to taste best as an early morning smoke. It burns hot and can have a bite, so slow and steady to really enjoy it.

At first I tasted the coffee but on down the bowl it turned, it had the taste like grandma's musky perfume. The taste isn't all bad. Just not the coffee/chocolate taste I was expecting. I have had a time keeping it lit. I think I'll let it dry some to see if it helps it burn. On other flavored tobaccos I've let dry I also lost the flavor.
After letting it dry a bit it burned better and lost the perfume taste. It still has a spicy taste.

A very nice steamed black cavendish. Quite enjoyed it, definitely can taste the mocha while smoking. Pleasant, well behaved smoke. Will be adding this to my regular rotation. A nice smoke for new pipe smokers for sure.

Being an English smoker I tend to bash most aromatics I try, but this one is one of my guilty pleasures. The bag smells of coffee and surprisingly chocolate, its kinda like smoking a latte from Starbucks without the caffeine. It is a big thick at the bottom of the bowl and does require a bit of attention while smoking, but overall it is a fun change of pace.

What can I say? This is my sweet tooth weekness. I generally do not like heavily sweet aromatics, but I've given in to this one. Good quality tobaccos are used, even though it's hard to taste beyond all the cocoa. I like it anyway.
