This tobacco is outstanding. It hits on all points big time. The flavor is splendid indeed. This bloody well could be the best tobacco i have smoked to date. And I have smoked many tobaccos. A must try for newbies as well as seasoned pipesters. Very highly recomended indeed.
This is a Terrific BC. Very mild and perfect for hot nights when you want to sit outside on your deck.
What I like about this BC is its smoothness and gentle mouthfeel. No bite whatsoever. Subdued flavored of Cherry, Vanilla and Carmel - Yes, but sometimes you just want a Smoke without thinking too much about it.
Pipe Used: Barontini
Age When Smoked: New
Purchased From: Smoking Pipes
Similar Blends: Similar to other BCs but - Mild is the key word to describe this Black Cavendish..
I HAD HEARD FROM A FRIEND THAT BLACK MAGESTY WAS A GOOD SMOKE - INVESTED IN 4 OZ FROM P&C - LOVE IT - SMOOTH TASTE - GREAT ROOM NOTE - NOT TO STRONG - NO BITE - FLAVOR IS VERY NICE - POUCH NOTE IS EXCELLENT - OVERALL IT GIVE IT 5 STARS AFTER SMOKING ALL 4 OZ. PASS IT ON!
I love black cavendish tobacco and as I work through the different brands I was happy to discover this blend. It is a touch on the mild side but I find that nice. Moist but no problem getting it lit or keeping it burning. As with the other Peter Stokkebye black cavendish tobaccos, I find a hint of sweetness that really reminds me of bubble gum. No sour notes, no tongue bite and a very good value. Can find no downside to this, definitely a good tobacco for everyday. I get plenty of compliments on the room note from smokers and non smokers. A must try for new pipe smokers, it comes in bulk and you can get a few ounces for a few dollars, worth a try.
Update: This has become my everyday smoke as well as a great tobacco for blending. I found that if I blend this 50/50 with Stokkebye's cherry that is just perfect for me. If you are a beginning smoker or a switchover from cigarettes, this is a very forgiving blend and well worth a try.
Not bad but way too mild. This would be the equivalent of smoking an ultra light cigarette when you are used to the full flavor ones. I'd recommend this to someone smoking for the first time.
Black Majesty. April 2004. Very,very mild.One of the mildest blends I've ever smoked.Cherry taste in a very mild way and maybe a little hint of vanilla in the background.The cavendish is the main player here obviously and its good.Nothing here to offend you in anyway.Smokers who are use to stronger tobaccos,will be left seeking more satisfaction.But for people seeking something mild can't possibly go wrong.Especially new comers to the world of pipe smoking.Very easy to smoke and handle. 6 out of 10.
I found this tobacco to be a very unsatisfying smoke. It packs and lights and burns nicely, and has a nice if inoffensive pouch smell, but overall, it left me almost completely unsatisfied. This is a tobacco without character or flavour. I honestly could have been smoking air for all I knew. My only recommendation is that this is a nice base tobacco for diluting stronger tobaccos, especially strong aromatics that need some breathing room and more dryness.
