[QUOTE="monbla256, post: 271654, member: 2244"] In the world of tobacco blends/mixtures there can be no "... definative." concerning a blend/mixture's flavor. It has always been someones "impression" of what it taste's like :P Unless someone who actually adds whatever is added to ALL tobacco's comes out and write's down the actual FACTS it will always be someones "impression". I looked up 'Tonquin Bean" flavoring and found as many as 8 variety's of flavors used to describe it. I may agree with one, mabe two of the descriptions, and you may agree with only one different than mine, and another smoker says another flavor is "it". I say just smoke it, and decide for yourslef how it tatses and go from there. Sort of like the "Ketchup" thing with McC's 'bacs, I feel they DON"T smell like ketchup, someone else says they do. These are "impressions" given by someone and should be expressed as such. As for Royal Yacht, having smoked several Lakelands blends and tasted the "old lady's soap" flavor the Tonquin Bean gives 'em, I DON"T get THAT aroma or flavor that is in them from RY. It does have something added to it, in fact in Dunhill's brochures, both from the '60s/'70s as well as today it states that there is a "piquant flavor added" . Anyone ever tasted a "piquant" recently? JMHO :twisted: [/QUOTE]
