Pretty much all I smoke
July 30, 2016
Product: Mac Baren 7 Seas Regular Bulk
After smoking this blend, I find it hard to enjoy anything else. They say that a person always comes across that one blend that is for them, and this one is mine. I smoke about 4-5 bowls a day of it and it never gets old. For me it has a wonderful ch... Read More
ocolate kind of flavor. I love the way it smells and tastes. I order about a 1lb a month of this and still have almost none cellared. I enjoy it that much. But I am also a simple person. YMMV. Read Less
This is THE Aromatic
March 31, 2018
Product: Mac Baren 7 Seas Regular 3.5oz
There's this smoky-chocolaty goodness going on here with hints of vanilla to beat the band. At times, it also reminds of Double Apple hookah tobacco (shisha)—which I realize sounds a bit contradictory. As another review said, "Ever eat birthday cake ... Read More
in the woods?" Well, it does taste quite a bit like chocolate cake with icing on top—at least, in terms of pipe smoke. I also get a hint of something fruity, like a mix of green apple and blackberry, especially in the aftertaste and tin note. Like all MB blends, you're gonna get "Mac Bite" if you push it too hard, but that simply encourages a better cadence. Dry it a little, light it well, sip it slow, and there's great enjoyment to be had. Furthermore, the aging potential—unlike some aromatics with very little—is great. I aged some for about 10 months, and the results were impressive. If you're a discerning aromatic smoker and haven't tried 7SR yet, it's time. Read Less

Though I always read the reviews for products I'm not familiar with, I rarely write a review, especially for pipe tobaccos as everyone has their own tastes, preferences and opinions.
Over the last 40 years I've tried so many different tobaccos tha... Read More
t I've lost count searching for that ONE blend that surpasses all others, one that becomes an every day smoke and can be an all day smoke...admit it, we all do.
I like many aromatics, mostly because my wife can tolerate them without whining about the smell, but finding one that tastes good, burns well, doesn't bite, and doesn't offend any non-smokers (except the militant ones, and there's no pleasing those) can be a chore.
Try this one.
Best part...the aftertaste...fantastic. Read Less

I have several brands/varieties of tobaccos in my rotation, and most of them are quite good. But this one takes the cake. It has a great aroma out of the tin, isn't too dry or too moist, packs well, lights well, burns well, and (most importantly) tas... Read More

One of the BEST Chocolate Aromatics on the Market
August 11, 2020
Product: Mac Baren 7 Seas Regular 3.5oz
What can one say about 7 Seas Regular that hasn't been said? With all the reviews online you have to know it's worth a try, so I did and figured I'd add my two cents as well!
When you first open a tin of 7 Seas Regular the smell of rich chocolate ... Read More
wafts from the package and teases your nose with hints of the fantastic flavor you're about to enjoy. I'm reminded of a dark chocolate truffle covered with cacao powder in the aroma, so decadent I'm tempted to taste it. Upon lighting I found this to be one of the smoothest and tastiest tobaccos in the Aromatic category that I've tried thus far. With strong notes of rich dark chocolate dominating the palate and subtle vanilla undertones soothing forth within each puff of the smooth tobacco profile. I have a few tobaccos in my rotation but this one has been my go to for smoking out and about, not only for the tasty and reliable flavor, but also for the complements I get on the room note! The nicotine is quite mild as well so you can load bowl after bowl no problem.
I give each pinch from the tin a little time to dry out, maybe 0.5-1hr under a ceiling fan, then smoke it slow and steady. She plays well with both filter and non filter pipes, not to mention you'll be hard pressed to get a bite as long as you let it dry a bit.
This is such a good smoke, and blends so well with other tobaccos, I've decided it will be the first blend I bulk up on to stock my cellar with! Read Less
Great room note

Product: Mac Baren 7 Seas Regular Bulk
This is one of those smokes that are mellow enough to smoke all day without blowing out your pallet or biting your tongue off.. but also has a wonderful rook note. One of those classic "pipe" smelling smokes.

Mild tobacco with light medium strength added flavouring. The topping taste like dried fruit with chocolate and vanilla, I get a raisin taste from the fruity part of it. The added flavours do not overpower the smoke and it is best to smoke this in a... Read More
n unfiltered pipe as the taste is mild and with a filter it taste like slightly sweet tasting smoke that you won't get much flavour out of.

7 Seas Regular
September 24, 2018
Product: Mac Baren 7 Seas Regular 3.5oz
This is my favorite out of the 7 Seas blends that I have smoked (Regular, Gold, Royal). Tin aroma is chocolate with hints of raisins and coffee. Flavor profile is hints of chocolate, raisins, and light hints of coffee. The is a pretty good blend.

omplex, I get hints of dark chocolate and vanilla. After the first light the taste slowly dissolves into straight tobacco, which I don't mind. This is a great beginner smoke, and it's very enjoyable.

Coming from MacBaren, you already know this is going to smell amazing. But for me, the flavors were a little too subdued and it did bite a little. Still, it was decent, just not outstanding.

other blends I've not tried. Upon opening the 7 Seas I was faced with what seemed to be a tin 2/3rds full, and the usual neatly folded paper liner not looking so neat. I placed the tobacco on my food scale and what I got was 2.2oz instead of the 3.5oz. I thought no biggie anything made by man is subject to flaw, however when I called the company to see if maybe there was a error on the packing line that they were aware of, or possibly they would offer some kind of explanation, or compensation, I could not reach a live person to talk to just a customer service reps answering machine. No return phone call. I did contact Smoking pipes and got right through to a gentleman and asked him if they had any reports of something like this that has happened and he kindly explained that he hasn't heard of anything, which was good. Now if the paper lining in the tin didn't looked worked over I might have just smoked the tobacco and moved on. But I discarded the whole tin. Don't get me wrong I love this blend and many others from this manufacturer I just wish their customer care was a little more on point. Had a pipe in my teeth since my late teens and lets say that was over 20 yrs ago. Also like to add that after discovering Smokeing pipes I won't buy elsewhere now unless I happen in to a brick motor. Love my new Savinelli's and Petersons and at a fraction of the cost I've been a custom to paying in the past and the customer care here is great! Read Less

I normally prefer my aromatics strong and natural, like Sam Gawith's 1792 Flake and Ennerdale Flake and blends like that. I'm not a huge fan of goopy, PG drenched tobaccos. Mac Baren's 7 Seas Regular is the chink in my American aromatic armor, and I... Read More
nearly gave it away during Christmas to my cousin. I came home that night, unwanted tin in hand, and set out a pile to dry. When I woke up in the morning, the tobacco was dry but not crispy. This is the moment I realized I can enjoy a regular aromatic. The tin note is vanilla caramel heaven with a side of chocolate. The smoke is rich with these flavors, and when I smoke it in my car I leave the window cracked only slightly so I can enjoy the room note without smoking myself out. Drying out the tobacco for several hours yields a smoke with little to no steam or moisture at the bottom of the bowl. My only complaint is that it doesn't satisfy me with nicotine, but I can forgo that pleasure for a sensory delight here and there. Delightful. Read Less

t absolutely no taste aside from hot air. Smokingpipes graciously sent me fresh tin and I chalked it off as simply a bad batch. New tin, same deal. No taste, barely perceptible aroma inside the tin. Maybe I happened across a bad lot but I'm not impressed at all. The only thing I can say is that it does burn well and has no bite, just no flavor whatsoever. Not sure what went wrong, was expecting better from Mac Baren. Waste of money and tobacco.
Update: Decanted this in a glass container for about 4 months. Became much better and flavorful. It was ok but never rose above marginal. I guess the name refers to the moisture content, or rather PG amount. Maybe I just got a bad impression but I'll sail other seas when it comes to aromatics from now on. Read Less

In a Zulu, the toastiness gets stronger towards the latter half, and gains in smokiness and cocoa.

to deliver in the flavor department. This isn't the case 7 Seas Regular. It presents a smell of chocolate, with hints of vanilla and citrus in the background. When fired up, the flavors are consistent with the tin aroma, but in a very mild and pleasant way. There is no bashing of the taste buds here, and anyone who smokes it around non-pipers, will receive compliments on how nice it smells. The only reason I give it four and a half stars is that it is a bit wet, and requires a touch of air-drying, to prevent the infamous "Mac Baren bite" so many of us are familiar with. This is my favorite go-to, everyday aromatic. Read Less
