What does it smoke like?

Blood Red Moon is a full aromatic pipe tobacco. The taste of the tobacco is not entirely overwhelmed by the topping, but rather combines into one flavor. I taste very sweet cherry, and dark chocolate. The flavor is similar to eating a cherry cordial, but there is a bread like toasty taste that has to be the Burley and Virginia. For a full aromatic, I noticed no tongue bite. The tobacco left no dottle, but there was some moisture in the bowl. The next bowl of whatever you have in the same pipe may have a ghost of cherry flavor.

How to prepare it?

Aromatic pipe tobacco is very sensitive to preparation. Take one bowl's worth out of the tin and let it dry in the air for at least half an hour. When the tobacco is no longer moist/sticky you are ready to pack. Use a light hand while packing the bowl. A two step pack is better than a three step pack for this blend. If it won't stay lit, use a tamper to tighten the pack a bit. Don't smash it in since it is very difficult to loosen the tobacco again. You should have no trouble drawing air thru the pipe. Smoke with a controlled, slow cadence for maximum flavor.

relatively wet right out of the tin , cherry forward with enough dark earthy behind it to give a good balance

OK but not great

I honestly don't see why this appears to be so popular. Rather odd aroma, reminiscent of woman's perfume.

Lots of Hype

Bought this with all the hub bub about how just out of this world it is. Not disappointed, but I'm not going to name my next kid Red Moon either. Awesome looking tin, and I think that's half the reason I bought it. It has a nice aroma both in the tin and smoking. The flavor is not as forward as I was hoping for. It does taste good of vanilla and cherry. Absolutely delightful and super mild on the retrohale. Will definitely keep this one on my shelf, and probably use it to blend with something that has a little more bite. Definitely a keeper.

My new favorite

I was fully expecting cherry cough syrup and tobacco. What I got was a very smooth cherry, with light chocolate and tobacco. No tongue bite at all. Burned all the way down without a relight, even though it looks to be very wet. Wife loves the room note. This is my new go-to.

Unbeatable

Oh how I long for you to be back in stock, my precious CBRM. What other tobacco can compare to you, with your cherry chocolate smoothness? Since you've been away, I'm ashamed to say I've experimented with other aromatics... alas none compare to you, my love! Come back to me so I can empty my wallet once more!
