McLintock Black Cherry (Black C)

I recently bought a pouch of McLintock Black Cherry. Now, either I was very unlucky or this is how it's packed but the contents were bone dry. Reasonable aroma but dry dry dry. Still I packed a medium bowl half bent pipe. It lit well and burned smooth, however none of the Cherry notes were really obvious. No tongue bite. I can't say I was bowled over BUT it just may have been a duff batch. Maybe I'll try another time. If anyone has found the same please tell me.

You are going to smell like a cherry strudel;after one small pipe of this...Really surprised for the amount of AROMA from this tobacco,my pipe was relatively dry,when finished.Decent Tobacco,not Grand.,,4/10. :%{

IMHO this is the second best cherry tobacco on the market. The first being Karl Erik #16. This is a sweet yet dry aromatic. It is heavily cased in what tastes to me like NATURAL CHERRY flavoring. Burns cool with no gurgle or goop. I really enjoyed this. A pleasant room note and a nice after taste. I would say most aromatic smokers will appreciate this blend. 3 of 4 aromatic stars.

Indeed, taste is a very subjective thing, however ....

I abhor mindless melodrama; and the sarcastic, obnoxious descriptions that too often frequent so-called "reviews" ... however, it is with a genuine spirit of goodwill and helpful intent that I make an effort to convey my own distasteful experience of this tobacco.

Sadly, a very, very 'soapy' taste which lingered in the mouth for several hours afterwards. I could not escape the sensation (and desperately wanted to!) that there were actual bubbles below my tongue formed, as from an accidental splash of dishwashing liquid. Bitterly disappointed with the purchase of this product, most particularly considering the cost to purchase.

That there are others who enjoy this tobacco, is obvious; otherwise it would not be marketable - I cannot explain my own sensation of the overwhelming soapy taste experienced, but would be remiss if I did not encourage prospective customers to buy a 50g, as opposed to the 100g, for a first taste.

IMO this is the best Black Cherry available in the market. Tastes great, with full aroma, kind of sweet, and the room smells like a cherry freshener has been used. It is not too strong - as a smoke; rather very pleasant! Up to now, everyone around seems to enjoy its smell! It's my every day smoke, and I find it difficult to change it... unless you can propose an even stronger aroma black cherry one, that I'm not aware of... I also have a dedicated pipe for this one; a strongly dedicated one! Nothing else gets in this pipe! Grade:A+++

I liked this tobacco. It looked and smelled good in the tin.It packed easy enough. It wasent to difficult to light. It burned smooth and easy, leaving a nice powdery gray ash. At the match however, I was a bit dissapointed at first as it came off as very bland. As I proceeded down the bowl a more pleasent medium flavor came forward and maintained until the bowl was done. This was a nice black cherry flavor that is intentionally medium. It wasent over cased and over candied as is so often true. It must be packed correctly in order to get the full flavor as is true with most high grade tobaccos. I got the opinion of about nine people that sit around me while I smoke, and all thought the room note to be pleasant. The only minor complaint that I had was how expensive it was. Excellent smoke!! I highly recommend it!!

The old saw about aromatics is that they don't taste well but they produce a good room note for those around you. Black Cherry has the "doesn't taste well" covered, but it doesn't create a particularly pleasing room note, either. I'm moving on.

If you are aromatické lover, you must to try this blend. I am not big fun of cherry smoke, but this one was very good. I will probably add it to my blend rotation. Flavoring is too much. But it is exactly what you wanted to buy. Cherry, and again cherry. Rather to smoke it with filter. You can taste a sweetness maybe a a bit of nuttyness during the smoke. No moisture, very cool smoke. A bit dry for me, when I open a sample, but it was not an an issue. Recomend for all cherry lovers.

I'm not a cherry tobacco fan, but was curious about one with coffee and whiskey added in, so I ordered another berry blend I would likely regret. The tin opening was not for the faint of heart. I was greeted with a bag of overactive cough syrup. If this mix had been drinking coffee or whiskey, it has since caught a cold and is now lurking in the medicine cabinet.

I quickly packed a bowl, since the smell was making me sick. Gawd, the lit product was just as nauseating. This "all" black cavendish (with light tan bits of, I dunno, asbestos) tasted incredibly cheap. All you get is an artificial chemical taste that leaked out of a cherry factory vat.

The quality of tobacco is unknown, as the casing would taste the same on grass clippings. Based on other the low ratings, I can assume all their products are much the same. Not wanting to further ruin my pipe, I "gifted" the rest of the tin to another rube.
