Basic Mc Barens Blends- Aros or not?

[skraps]

So... What is Royal Yacht?

I would say it's an Aromatic. Light and subtle, but an Aromatic by the "industry" definition.

So if aromatics are black and white, according to Webster, what is a semi-aromatic?

One that is smoked while driving an 18 wheeler??
Good question. I'm simply going by industry definition as Cosmic mentioned. Like I also stated earlier... they need to expand the descriptors. The current list doesn't cut it.

I guess "they" will have to form an "opinion" about it.

 

[skraps]

Yep, I suppose so.

I think a lot of these terms are useful in their own way at the same time as being rather useless. Very few tobaccos are completely unadulterated. Semois being a glorious example. But everything else I like, from OGS to Irish Flake, has some adulterated added. Is Lata Kia an aromatic? I'd say yes. What's the point of the distinction in the long run? I think the only two categories that matter for most smokers are I like it vs I don't like it.

That's all that matters to me!

Eh, it comes up from time to time. I wouldn't worry. If we didn't like to talk about tobacco, we wouldn't be here.

Great post!
