In my quest for a tasty Aromatic, I have been looking forward to trying this. The positive reviews had me put this on my last order. Bag note is great, sweet. My first flavor was a hint of vanilla, very subtle. The smoke is sweet, room note is great.... Read More
I could taste a spiciness similar to Latakia, but different, ah spicy, almost a ginger flavor. As I smoked past half the bowl, I had a subtle flavor of cinnamon, more vanilla. The spiciness lingered on my palette, this is a pleasurable smoke indeed. Sip it slowly for the best flavor. I had no hint of chemical flavor or aftertaste. Clean and enjoyable. This is a more subdued blend than Nightcap, but for me, equally enjoyable. This is a winner!
It has been over a half hour since I smoked this blend. I can still taste the spiciness on my palette, nice. Read Less
My #1 all-cavendish choice
October 30, 2015
Product: Sutliff B21 Black Spice Bulk
First off, I like all-cavendish tobaccos, so please keep that in mind when you read my comments. This is my #1 favorite all-cavendish tobacco - with Black Vanilla and Captain Black dark coming in second and third.
This smokes quite well overall, al... Read More
though it can be a bit moist right out of the bag. I tend to allow it to dry a bit before enjoying and that helps with both flavor and relaxation. It dries faster than Captain Black, and smokes well even when quite dry. Also, it will stay lit on the charring light for me almost every time, and not require a lot of work to keep it lit.
I have to really push this to get it to bite, unless it is too moist, but even then it takes some effort. The flavor is very nice, not at all artificial like Captain Black can sometimes be, and is richer and more complex that many other all-black cavendish tobaccos. The room note is amazing too, you're highly unlikely to hear a complain out of even the most hard-core anti-smoker with this.
This is currently my everyday tobacco choice, and I've found that each order gets larger and larger in weight. Read Less

B21 is smooth and has the inherent naturally sugary sweetness. It's characterized by cinnamon, allspice and nutmeg, on a sweet base of smooth, black and cool burning leaf. Adding it to a mixture that requires a B.C. to unite other leaf and smooth rou... Read More

When you open the bag, you can smell a clear plum aroma, slightly moist. The awakening time is about 5-8 minutes, and after lighting it, the sweetness is very pleasant without feeling greasy. It is a good aromatic fragrance.
Delicious and unique!!

This is an AWESOME aromatic! Now I smoke and love all kinds of different tobaccos and although I do love a lot of aromatics, they can often seem very similar and one dimensional. But this stuff was sooo surprisingly different, and I loved it! Not ove... Read More
rly sweet, not chemically, not goopy, just a great smoke! It’s subtle with its sweetness and smokiness, but then has this awesome spice that gives it a little kick! It really is so unique! And to me it has more flavor than most aromatics! A wonderful smoke! Cheers! Read Less

Soft and lovely, solo or blended
January 14, 2019
Product: Sutliff B21 Black Spice Bulk
I don’t get the promised spice notes, but I do get a soft vanilla or maybe even superbly hidden cherry, with distant spice of some sort. It’s a bit moist but not damp or wet. The aroma is lovely, the taste is nice, the bite is non existent. This is a... Read More
nice old reliable standby Black cavendish. While fine by itself, I’ve successfully blended it with other components to form some really nice and satisfying aromatics (straight red/gold Virginias, or a dash of Perique or Burly). I suspect it would make an interesting condiment added to a crossover English blend, but it’s sweet softness night take away from the attempt if not sparing enough.
EDIT: upon further smoking, I there is definitely some cherry present which I usually don’t like. This is superbly mild and I have to be in the mood for it specifically, and it then fits the bill perfectly! Adding a star. Read Less

I lean heavily toward English Blends, but at the end of the evening I want something that smells nice. Black Spice feels that niche nicely. Black Cavendish is my favorite in that regard. The blend is something of a fall scent to me. It is reminisc... Read More

Most aros are either over the top are lacking, this one is a good balance. The tin note was very good, dry it some before packing. It did burn hot for me, may cut it some with some CH to cool it down a bit. Flavor was nice and smooth, did get some... Read More
