McClelland No. 715 Raspberries in Cream
(2.50)
This is an elegant aromatic with the fragrance and flavor of fresh red raspberries in cream. Soft, light-bodied, artfully flavored with mild American Virginias and the best Black Cavendish, this blend is delicious all the way down the bowl.

With the name of raspberries and cream, I was really looking forward to this tobacco; I even ordered an extra large supply. Well, was I disappointed. I taste nothing, except a very mild tobacco flavor. And I beleive if you took a blow torch to this stuff, it would still be difficult to dry it out to a point where you can keep it going in your bowl. I have had the same supply for over six months and it is still wet to the touch. If it were drier, I would give it a somewhat recommended, but it's just too wet for me.

As a very infrequent aromatic smoker my rating probably should be ignored by you regulars out there. I was eager to try this after hearing good things about this blend. I was quite let down by the experience. Too little tobacco flavor more my tastebuds and not enough aroma to make up for it. I will revisit this one later to be fair as I tried many of this type in one day which may have been unfair. Watch for an update.
