This is the cherriest of cherries. You could not possible make a more cherry flavored black cav based tobacco. Honestly - I took about a gram of this stuff and cut it into about 7 grams of other mixed tobaccos, and the result was still a noticeable cherry flavour throughout. Rather pleasant actually, but the McLintock's straight from the tin is too much for me.
The background tobacco flavour is almost bitter, but the cherry topping is so sweet and heavy that the backing tobacco could taste like roof tar and you'd never notice.
If you want a big cherry splash and a real gentle smoke, this might do the trick for you. For me, it is something I can use if I am blending things for myself, but I don't smoke it alone very often.

Reminds me of other "cherry" blends. Fruity but not really specific. An adult type cherry, not the gloppy mess so often encountered. However, it does dry out quickly; my tin is not yet 6 months old! I tried to rotate this in, but, I couldnt take the sweetness.

This definitely has some good cherry notes, but I dont think it is as cherry as people make out. It smokes well and doesnt bite but the flavour doesnt change much and the tobacco has a bit of a cigarette like note which isnt that nice.
