Type of Tobacco:
- non-aromatic
Flavor Properties:
- mellow
- dry
- not sweet
Relatable Flavors:
- cocoa note hits upfront but it's gentle (think SC Black Mile)
- generic woody note which adds dryness (don't expect "kapow I'm a lumberjack cutting trees down" type of woodsyness, it's pretty mellow and very blended into the other notes)
- mild leathery note (like TFA Western but not as defined)
Mouth Feel:
- dense
Off Flavors:
- none
Position In A Recipe:
- use in a tobacco base to add some body
Suggested Percentage:
- 2-3%
Pairings:
- leathery, woodsy, or chocolaty tobaccos to boost notes
- smokey tobaccos to add authenticity
- caramel, nuts, vanilla, creams, to bend into a desert tobacco
- cinnamon (small amounts) would work, oddly enough, to add the right kind of spice and give it some personality
Conclusion:
- Reminds me of SC Black Mile but more mellow on the chocolate notes.
- At first vape, I was getting leather notes but the woody cocoa notes are more in the forefront now that my rda is warmed up.
- It's a really pleasant vape and very adaptable. Could sit in an authentic tasting recipe or a dessert tobacco blend.
- Doesn't have enough going on to be a stand alone for me but if I had nothing else, it's so non-offensive to my taste buds that I wouldn't mind if I had to vape it all day.
- Overall, it's so middle of the way that it could be a pretty useful flavor for any tobacco head. In the same breath, it's lack of defining features will require artful pairings to really make it pop.
- PS. It does not taste like a Dunhill cigarette, surprise surprise :P
