Different in a Good Way

Product: McConnell Glen Piper 50g
It is aromatic, but also, like a Va blend. Taste is all tobacco, but the room note is pleasantly fruity. Give it a try if you like Va, but not the typical strength of Va.

A nice departure

Just to start out, I am not an aromatic tobacco person. They tend to end up burning hot and harsh, with a chemical aftertaste, and I do not enjoy it. This tobacco, however, is one of the few aromatics that I genuinely enjoy. No harshness in my experience, and very little chemical aftertaste. The base tobaccos are extremely high quality, so the base tobacco flavor is definitely there. The added flavor doesn't take away from it at all; most of what i taste is a very general fruit flavor (I would guess apple if you put a gun to my head). There is a hint of cocoa as well, but it's not especially strong. The flavors are excellent. It doesn't smoke as well as i would like (tends to take more relights for me), both due to the extra topping/casing and also the cut. This isn't really enough to take away from the experience personally. I highly recommend this tobacco, even if you aren't necessarily an aromatics fan. It would never convert me to aromatics but it's a wonderful change of pace....Read More
