For me Ice Cream Sundae has a tin note that is predominantly chocolate with a cherry background. Very much like a dark chocolate cherry cordial. I know that Mr. Ouelette has a blend named Cherry Cordial, however this review is for Ice Cream Sundae.
The flavor of this remarkable blend is actually better than the tin note. I would call this tobacco a three flavor trifecta. On one puff I would taste the chocolate, and maybe the next puff I would taste cherry, and then maybe the next I would taste vanilla. I never knew what flavor I was going to taste next. It was a really pleasant, relaxing, and delightful smoke.
The tobacco is not sticky to the touch. I smoked it slow and easy, it stayed lit the entire time, I didn’t experience any pipe gurgle, and it smoked down to a fine gray ash.
It might be interesting to compare Mr. Ouelette’s Ice Cream Sundae blend to his Cherry Cordial blend, I’m kind of curious what the difference may be.
In conclusion, if you like chocolate, cherry, and vanilla flavors, then I would highly recommend Ice Cream Sundae.

Average ribbon-cut VaBur + Cav is a guess plus a perfect aroma that grows into a long smoking fragrance bouquet. Oh Ye, unlock the secret of these blends. After the char, even unlit, the fragrance on top of the bowl is exceptional, and continues when lit to the end. Relight pauses let the nose get some more good waft where there was no smoke to be seen. Every month this blender sends me his samples and what a privilege it is to determine which is best. Exceed sipping-the-embers-pace at your peril. An exceptional blend and quality of tobacco. Roasty, mellow, tasty, satisfying. 4 Star. (The room note rates high according to wife – I smoked this bowl atop my horse as I chatted with friends on the ground, my one leg wrapped around the saddle horn, the other in the stirrup – yep, smoked my pipe to the fullest of enjoyment after roping steers).
