[QUOTE="Benton, post: 17910, member: 318"] Having cavendish in a blend doesn't necessarily make it an aromatic. Haddo's and Dunhill 965 both have cavendish in them, for example, but they are not aromatics by any stretch of the imagination. I'd say that an aromatic is a blend that is dominated by a topping rather than the tobacco itself. Sometimes the toppings will stick around in a pipe, sometimes not. I like Butternut Burley, but my BB pipe is useless for anything else. Even other aromatics taste like BB in that pipe. Barbary Coast does sit right on the edge between aromatic and non-aromatic in my opinion. The tin aroma and flavor on light-up are dominated by the brandy topping but after a few minutes the topping fades and the perique strengthens. After that point the flavor is just sweetened burley and perique. Oh, how I love BC. Too bad my tin ran out last week. :( [/QUOTE]
