Black Gold Maple
Smoking Pipes Rating : 3.0

This aromatic ribbon was just moist enough to be springy and is composed of virgins and black cavendish. It’s becoming a familiar aromatic base.

Sampled in a seasoned MM Missouri Pride.

It is
rare , in my experience this far , to pick up an aro that 1) smells like the name implies and 2) tastes like the smell. This excellent aromatic does that and was a joyful surprise today.

The maple scent is rather forward in the bag, along with the becoming all too familiar aro base blend of virgins and black cavendish that makes me think of chocolaty smudge oreo filling. It smelled tasty - if it were a snack in an airport at Cinnabon, you’d order it.

Smoking, the maple is there and it’s CLEAN and does not taste artificial. It tastes like real maple syrup. Better yet it’s a balanced sweetness , and it also lends to a nice room note.

This is what a good B&M aro should be like - open the jar , get a perception, and it follows through.

It is very easy to smoke. Can make clouds if you want but sipped is a nice lacey thin smoke. The maple flavor also isn’t just one note - it ebbs and flows , but somehow never dissipates nor comes on too strong.

Masterfully done.

It’s pancakes and waffles in a pipe. It may be one of the better aros I have had in quite a while - which - I may order some when I have a sweet tooth itch, but in general aros aren’t my thing right now - but I 100% recognize its quality and class.

My rating : 4- this is good - I’m am considering ordering some to have around when I am ordering something else

This is the 13th of the 101 C&D bulk blends I am reviewing for this project.

Not an aromatic smoker usually. That being said, it's not overly sweet which I like. Reminds me alot of Autumn Evening. Not bad at all
Better as a blender.

By itself, you get the maple for sure, but no tobacco flavor other than a slight cardboard from the black cavendish. As a blender, it adds a nice maple background.
Subtly sweet

Tolerable, but the maple really takes a back seat to what seems more like a mild liqueur note. Overall, too sugary without enough real flavor.
Always a pleasant smoke

nice maple smell in the bag but not too heavy and a great taste. Everyone smokes differently, I find it to be a nice slow smoke with NO BITE. Not too wet and stays lit. A go too for a nice relaxing smoke that others (non-smokers) will find pleasant.

I find the taste unpleasant. I won't buy it again. It lights and burns well, but I was hoping for at least some maple flavor.
It Bites

Second time ordering this. First container was fine. This time however, it seems they kicked up the nicotine or something, because it makes my head spin a bit after smoking it. Seems the "strength" should be kicked up to 4 stars instead of 2.
Nice aromatic

I was looking for an aromatic full of maple flavors but I found something a little more complex than that. The mixture has different aromas like maple, liquor, honey, sugar, and some soft coffee. But honestly, some of them just disappear in the smoke. The sugar is also quite intense, not overwhelming but it is always present, and I was looking for something like that but with maple. Anyway, it smokes well, a little hot but manageable. I will continue tasting this for sure, but not as everyday tobacco....Read More

A very subtle hint of maple aroma/flavor, especially when smoked slowly. Definitely there but not overpowering nor sicky-sweet. One of my two go-to blends always ready in the Mason jar.
nice
