This type of Aromatic blend isn't for everyone, but if you like a flavour to your tobacco, I recommend Black Cherry.
As you open the new pouch you instantly get the scent of Christmas (Plum) Pudding and a sweet hint of cherry. On first smelling this tobacco I worried that it might be a little too sweet for my tastes. It packs very easily with an almost sticky feel and nice moisture level.
After the charring and re-lighting, this gives a very pleasant and fairly mild smoke. The flavours come through without being at all overpowering and not as sweet as you would imagine from the initial smell. Burns well down to the end of the bowl and leaves a very fine white ash.
Well worth a try if you don't hate aromatics!

I must admit as a new smoker I have only smoked three tobaccos and this is a very flavourable tobacco. It what is says on the tin so too speak. My other tobacco is St Bruno. The two are completely different but I do very much enjoy smoking the black cherry in the evenings. Highly recommend

This is the first cherry tobacco I have tried and from what I've read on this website, probably the best cherry available.
I like it. I probably only smoke a bowlful every couple of days as it is very sweet, but it is enjoyable and bite-free nontheless. Very pungent aroma in the pouch and has a pleasant aroma that sticks to your clothes after smoking. SWMBO likes the smell of this one so it is probably suitable for smoking indoors or in company.
Be warned however that this stuff will stain your pipe. I now have a dedicated "cherry pipe" as I can't remove the taste from it with anything. It's probably as bad as Erinmore in this respect!
Recommended for those with a very sweet tooth.
UPDATE - couldn't finish this 50g pouch. My usage of this tobacco dropped to about once a fortnight and one day I thought enough is enough and binned the remainder! It's good as cherry tobaccos go I suppose (not that I have tried any others) it's just not my cup of tea anymore

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.

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.
