[QUOTE="Puff Daddy, post: 425416, member: 3"] The problem with many aromatics is that the tobaccos used are often pretty crummy and they are usually heavily sauced and loaded with preservative. End result, an initial blast of whatever flavor topping was added followed by a not very good tasting pipe. There are a few exceptions though. If you like the Captain Black type flavor profile, try Lane Ltd RLP-6. It's basically Captain Black but not overly preserved with PG and the tobacco base tastes pretty decent. Dry it out a bit before smoking. Often the American aromatics appeal to smokers who haven't developed a taste for tobacco. If you actually like good deep rich tobacco with an aromatic note, there are a couple of good options. The very best I've tried, and the one I smoke regularly, is Gawith and Hoggarth Black and Brown. Tastes like very, very good tobacco, the black cavendish is richly flavored with molasses and it is only slightly sweet, like someone sprinkled a little sugar over it. It's wonderful. Worth smoking also is GL Pease Barbary Coast, rich dark cube cut burley with red virginia and topped with brandy. McClelland Fragrant Matured cake (fmc2000) is a simple virginia flake topped with maple, very delicious. With these three, smoke slowly and patiently, sipping your pipe rather than puffing up great clouds of smoke, and you will be rewarded greatly :) [/QUOTE]
