It's a fruit aromatic
January 29, 2025
Product: Rattray's Exotic Passion 100g
I'll admit I came in with high expectations. On the suggestion of a fellow smoker, I put this one on my wishlist and snagged it up as soon as it was in stock. He spoke of the intense fruit flavor packed into the leaf. He wasn't wrong, exactly, but it just isn't the kind of fruit flavor I was anticipating from the notes on the tin. The tin aroma is most definitely passion fruit and mango, but when it comes to smoking, the bowl has a soft, fruity crème flavor that plays well with the Virginia, but doesn't lend any particular complexity or brightness of its own. The aftertaste is pleasant, for a time, but turns stale in the mouth after a while. I can't disassociate it from the kind of generic fruit flavor a cheap cigarillo carries - no offense to Rattray's, that could very well be a personal hang-up like people who can't stand cherry flavor for its use in medicine. Maybe I'm just not a fan of fruit aromatics, but if you are, this one is worth trying out at least. EDIT: Dry it well, take a deep, round-shaped bowl like an egg or apple (meer if you have it, to avoid ghosting), and smoke it slowly over 2-3 sessions separated by an hour or so. A bit of labor but it makes for a nice experience....Read More

Not a big aromatic smoker, but I do have a small cob dedicated to this blend. Great if you’re in the mood but I choose smaller bowls of this because once my taste buds adjust it becomes less enjoyable. Still amazing in small doses for me. Leaves a good aftertaste and a nice aroma to my shirt!...Read More
Very strong but delicious

I find this aromatic to be a bit too strong on its own but enjoy mixing it with non-aros to dampen the punch of the toppings. What results is a nice sweet orange holiday-style mix. Will buy more.
Ooooh MY!!

I just smoked my first bowl of this, all I have to say is this might be my absolute favorite fruit based aromatic. The tin note is too die for and that carries right over to flavor and room smell 😍. Don't question it, just but it!
Perfect

The only aromatic that I keep in stock. When it’s in stock. The orange flavor is perfect while at the same time the natural tobacco shines through. and for such a delicate flavor, the orange last through the entire smoke. It’s one of those tobacco that you get exactly what you paid for. Perfect!...Read More

Every time it is lit, it reminds me of a sunny afternoon, with a warm and sweet fragrance rushing towards my face. A pipe plant with excellent room charm.
Better the next day

The tin note is very unique with a complex array of citrusy deliciousness. I left half in the pipe overnight by mistake, light up the next morning and POW that stuff came alive with explosive flavor - It was better with much more flavor the next day. I’m ordering more.
Excellent!

This is the best aromatic! Super smooth through the whole bowl. I can go out in my garage a hour later and still smells so good! Well done.
Unlike anything else...

Full disclosure: I DO smoke aros! The tin note is ridiculous in the amount of citrus and perfume you get - prob the best and worst tin note I've ever experienced. Yea, I know THAT didn't make sense. But, its a tobacco, not potpourri, so how it smokes is what rates. I liked it. It's so full of fruit notes its crazy. I found drying it for 10 min or so smokes more to my tastes. It does need to be sipped because as noted by others can burn hot. And I have dedicated a new cob to smoke it so eliminate any ghosting issues....Read More
Intense!

Very strong scent. I can smell this tobacco throughout the house. However, it's a very good aromatic... IN MODERATION. I suggest using one pipe dedicated to this tobacco. It will ghost your pipes.
