Jazzy smoke
April 20, 2017
Product: Dan Tobacco Blue Note 50g
This aromatic is an ode to subtlety, beginners who prefer really sweet blends will have a hard time in order to appreciate the true character from this blend, it has a very complex and limited palette of flavours that require certain expertise and di... Read More
sposition to get. It is very "jazzy".
I read somewhere that "Blue note" was made as a tribute to the famous jazz club in New York, the person said that it was mainly a sensuous re-enactment from the place, the general jazzy atmosphere, the odour and sensation from the leather furniture, the warmness and the coolness altogether, the blue note... I think i can imagine all this while i smoked this blend, it does have all those nuances and its intriguing.
It all starts as a timid note flat and constant of virginia and as it gains intensity the musicality from this smoke tunes in. An aroma of leather and soft bourbon takes in, the band is now developing the jam, tobacco dominates above the aromatic and it just varies the intensity from virginia, moderated by the bass lines from the cavendish. At times a little vanilla note jumps in very vaguely adorning the trumpet lines from the domminating virginia, sips from bourbon as you sit and contemplate. The band is in full digression till the mid of the pipe, jamming hard, drums kick in, wildness in the air. Intensity is moderate.
The last quarter is where there is more aromatic approach, a lot more into smoothness, clarinet submerges you into volutes of blue smoke and the atmosphere in your palate receives all the most intensity from vanilla and bourbon, a little citric which remits to general coolness, a little sweetness wall of flavour and virginia strength. You get in, youre seduced by the rhythm, it is endulging and appetizing, it maintains this cadence until it finishes.
Very interesting smoke. Truly complex and mysterious. The flavour is certainly undetermined even though you can detect the components, but the trick is to find the "atmosphere" it creates, the whole blend flavour which sums up the "blue note". Recommended. Read Less

What a pleasant smoke! Definitely smokes more like a Virginia than an aromatic. That flavor is definitely very present, but there’s also that sweet flavor. Now, upon first impression, those two things were immediately there, and the profile of this b... Read More
lend almost presented as a dichotomy. However, the slower you smoke it, the more this opens up. The sweetness gets layered, but it always burns like a Virginia, so it’s really easy to smoke and retains its lovely complexity throughout the entire bowl. “Yeah, cat.” Read Less

偶然有机会去到北京的bluenote,然后在sp上看买了这款草,想着能有什么关联,这个草开盖后,闻着味道非常好,但是抽起来只有淡淡的奶味。

Not often do I make this statement, but I would give this 10 stars if I could. I get a mellow hint of blueberry when I smoke it. I am very impressed. It is a little wet for me right now first opening the tin, but man, it’s good.
More like fusion jazz, but okay.

Exotic is a good term. It doesn't make you blue, green maybe, but you could definitely smoke it when you're feeling blue. It's zesty and moody. I think you need to be in a mood, some kind of mood to smoke this stuff. It's a fleeting whimsy, not a... Read More

While there are some pleasant vanilla notes at first, this bend simply bites & stings the lounge. It's painful towards the end of a bowl. Hard to make it through the whole endeavor.

Blue Note delivers as described as far as the tin and room note go, but it was lacking flavor. I will keep a bit of Blue Note around when I feel like smoking a different aro or for social situations, but it won’t go into rotation
Major Tongue Bite

Horrible fruity flavoring with a vile tongue bite regardless how slow of cadance utilized. Smoked two bowls and trashed the rest. It was like trying to smoke rotten fruit.

Filleting multiple stems, shredding humongous sheets of leaf and, taste-wise, wondering whether it had somehow gone off. Beats me how cum it's got so many fans. On no account should this be mistaken for Sutliff's of the same name. Read Less

smoke, as I reach for it 7 days a week. Of course, it did take some time before I was truly blown away, it kinda creeps up on you and then becomes positively addicting. It's nothing like all the other countless aromatic tobaccos I have tried before, this actually tastes like tobacco. So if you, like me, have been wanting to find a good aromatic to throw into your rotation, than look no further. Essential. Read Less

tin of Blue Note but it seems that everywhere on the internet right now is out of stock.
I left a hefty pinch out to dry for about 20 mins.
Immediately upon opening the bag I was met with a very distinct smell that i couldn't quite put my finger on. I noticed that the tobacco was a little chunky. There was super fine powdery bits but the majority of the blend had larger "chunks" or "pieces" of tobacco. I apologize if my terminology is not yet developed. I packed my peterson pipe using the method that tamps down in 3 layers.
The flavor is lovely. In the beginning I had a hard time getting smoke from this tobacco. My peterson was glowing red but there was little smoke. I am sure it was a novice error and my fault. At first I thought it was my pipe being cracked but i looked it over and no cracks. I then loosened the tobacco and got plenty of smoke. It seemed to burn fairly loose.
I enjoyed this tobacco and will most definitely buy it again. Read Less

Don't expect much vitamin N, or tobacco satisfaction - that's not what it is.
Lovely room note, quality leaf, nice ash little dottle.
Smokes cooler than Honeydew does, though it is in the same genre. It's worth trying and smoking now and again for a change of pace. Read Less

Note, is that once it has dried out a bit, a carefully packed bowl will retain its flavor through a couple of re-lites and near to the bottom of the bowl.
