Mac Baren: Vanilla Roll Cake 3.5oz Pipe Tobacco

Product Number: 003-039-0113

Manufactured largely by hand in accordance with age-old traditions, Mac Baren's Vanilla Roll Cake features a wrapper of whole leaf Virginias, with additional Virginias and whole leaf Burleys serving as the foundation. Further enhancing the natural sweetness of the Virginias is a subtle casing of premium, Madagascar vanilla. Smooth and creamy, Vanilla Roll Cake represents a confluence of tradition and innovation — applying traditional preparation to Mac Baren's signature Danish approach to casings for a naturally sweet, nuanced, and supremely enjoyable smoke.

Warm Deep Rich Vanilla Smoke

Product: Mac Baren Vanilla Roll Cake 3.5oz
I haven't been smoking aromatics all that much lately but when this came out I had to give it a try; I'm glad I did. If you like vanilla aromatics, then, in my opinion, this is probably the best one out there. The tobacco comes in finely cut coin... Read More

This is a good, clean aromatic...not goopy and overbearing like most out there
The Best

Product: Mac Baren Vanilla Roll Cake 3.5oz
First I have to say I am not a big aromatic smoker. My criteria are high quality tobacco, high quality ingredients, and a result that feels natural. This a high quality tobacco. The vanilla flavor is very clearly natural and high quality. The result... Read More
Yum!

Product: Mac Baren Vanilla Roll Cake 3.5oz
There are different kinds of vanilla. There is the cheap vanilla ice cream type, then there is the fresh baked cookie just taken out of the oven kind of vanilla. That is what this kind is. The vanilla is strong in the tin and light when smoked, and I... Read More
Great Aromatic

Product: Mac Baren Vanilla Roll Cake 3.5oz
I’m not typically an aromatic guy but this stuff is phenomenal! You can still taste the zesty Virginias and that is rare with aromatic tobaccos. The vanilla is silky smooth, none of that goopy sauce crap. Treat yourself!
華やかで美味しい

Product: Mac Baren Vanilla Roll Cake 3.5oz
バニラ着香のコインカットタバコということで、甘味と旨味を期待して購入。期待通りの味わいというべきか、あっさりとした、ピュアなバニラの香りに加えて、バージニアの甘みと合わせた味合いでした。とても素敵です。私と同じことを期待をするなら、買って後悔はしない銘柄だと思います。

Product: Mac Baren Vanilla Roll Cake 3.5oz
Vanilla roll cake is smooth as you please. It doesn't know what artificial flavor is. Smoke it slow and soft, you will have a feeling that someone is baking cookies in your mouth. Perfect moisture out of the tin. I just stacked 4 coins in my cheap li... Read More
Game Changer

Product: Mac Baren Vanilla Roll Cake 3.5oz
Not kidding... this made me a better smoker. Freshly opened this can bite your whole mouth from across the room before you even light up. Once you learn to smoke it proper, it turns into the chocolate chip cookie king of tobacco: Consistent, last... Read More
Flavor without artificial sweetness
April 17, 2021
Product: Mac Baren Vanilla Roll Cake 3.5oz
I’m absolutely in love with these! The natural sweetness and flavor of the Virginias still shine through this with the vanilla complimenting it. The vanilla is not like a sweet casing that overpowers the mix. Amazing balance that I want to smoke all ... Read More
Rich and Satisfying

Product: Mac Baren Vanilla Roll Cake 3.5oz
I've been looking for a very light aromatic, mostly virginia based blend for a while. GLP Virginia Cream was promising but ultimately unsatisfying, mostly due to mechanics. The mechanics here are perfect; burns cool and evenly with little moisture. R... Read More
A Must Try!

Product: Mac Baren Vanilla Roll Cake 3.5oz
I'm definitely NOT an Aromatic smoker. But I decided to give this a try simply on the strength of my appreciation of the Mac Baren name. I'm so glad that I did! It's the perfect low level of vanilla flavor, which allows the tobacco flavor to shine... Read More
Sweet and convenient
October 27, 2024
Product: Mac Baren Vanilla Roll Cake 3.5oz
The tin aroma is very plummy, and that flavor lingers on after a smoke. Room note is strong in vanilla and Virginia brightness. Call me uncouth but the little coins are perfect for simply popping into a wide-mouthed bowl after a short breathing perio... Read More

Good Vanilla Tobacco
March 07, 2024
Product: Mac Baren Vanilla Roll Cake 3.5oz
So the room note is quite amazing but I'm not getting much vanilla as I smoke it. For the money the Mac Aren't Vanilla custard is a better value as it has more flavor.
artificial sweetness

This is even better than the flake,taste,working,staying lit.I was under the impression that they were the same. The onlm Thing is the first puff after char light is a sweetness I did not expect or the depth vanilla.

Product: Mac Baren Vanilla Roll Cake 3.5oz
I made the mistake of smoking some Boswell Christmas Cookie before smoking this. The comparison was night and day. This is high-quality tobacco, but it is not very sweet. It's more lightly sweet. If you have a sweet tooth, Boswell Sugar Cookie is som... Read More
Great aroma!
September 10, 2022
Product: Mac Baren Vanilla Roll Cake 3.5oz
This stuff has an extremely delicious tin-note and tastes amazing for about one third into the bowl and then changes into a very sharp, bitey, peppery mess leaving a lot of wasted dottle and a sore tongue. 😕 Definitely overpriced. I even tried blen... Read More
Vanilla coins in a tin
September 03, 2022
Product: Mac Baren Vanilla Roll Cake 3.5oz
Vanilla is lead in the tin note, and after the first lighting. The Virginias come through as well with the sweet hay, bread like notes. There is also a hint of brown sugar probably from Cavendish. The vanilla never dominates, but compliments the Vir... Read More
Vanilla Cupcake

Product: Mac Baren Vanilla Roll Cake 3.5oz
I am vividly reminded of the aroma of freshly baked vanilla cupcakes smoking this tobacco. I love it, but sometimes blend it with a straight virginia to mellow out the aromatic flavor. Great for when you have a sweet tooth

Product: Mac Baren Vanilla Roll Cake 3.5oz
I have never been an aromatic guy. I have tried several but was always disappointed. Not much taste, tongue bite, many had too much chemical taste. Not this stuff. I was pleasantly surprised. Very natural taste. Not goopy, just a great smoke. I'm go... Read More

Product: Mac Baren Vanilla Roll Cake 3.5oz
I like Mac Baren tobacco and thought I'd try this, mainly due to trying a roll cake. My surprise was how much I liked it. Mild to medium nicotine but a nice blending of tobacco and aromatic taste. Will keep it high on the rotation list.

This was one of my 1st tobaccos that really got me enjoying my pipe. It does bite some if smoked too fast. Let is dry some 10-15 min before smoking and it will stay lit longer. Great room note that is pleasant. Vanilla, brown sugar, oak. Pair with a ... Read More

Get 3 or 4 coins, prep them however you like, and enjoy a wonderful smoke. A pipe full of this never fails to put me at ease with a smile on my face.
Amazing smoke

Product: Mac Baren Vanilla Roll Cake 3.5oz
I just ordered two more tins of this after I tried it. This is my favorite mac Baren blend as of yet. It has the perfect amount of subtle flavor combined with a great smoking roll. Will be a staple tobacco for me as long as I can get ahold of it.
Just superb

Product: Mac Baren Vanilla Roll Cake 3.5oz
Excellent quality tobacco, great tin aroma, smokes slow and mild, and the taste has just a hint of vanilla, Virginia sweetness, and a little Virginia spice. The coins are very thin cut and nicely packed, and fill the can. Very little to no loose to... Read More
And it is probably possible that I will sometimes smoke it.
January 05, 2021
Product: Mac Baren Vanilla Roll Cake 3.5oz
It will be correct to admit that 16 years ago I started with vanilla from Mac Baren. Then he gradually switched to Virginia / Perique, Kentucky and Aromatics and stopped smoking. But when I saw this new tobacco, I really wanted to try it. Of course,... Read More
