Do all cavendish and cavendish blends tend to smoke hot?

Not in my experience, no.

 

[Chasing Embers]

I've not found any that do.

 

[kcghost]

I have no problem with Cavendish blends.

 

[Bright Orange Red]

Not that I've ever noticed.

If you find that they are smoking hot, then allow me to recommend that you slow your puffing. Think "sip" instead of "puff," and you may find them to be much more enjoyable.

Depends. Is this Cavendish really just a goopy aromatic or an actual Cavendish blend?

 

[browell2445]

I am not a fan of aromatics, most that I have issues with are not overly moist. I do tend to maintain a faster cadence, but I rarely have issues with Virginias, burley, etc

Cavendish for me, has always offered better mouth feel and a cooler smoke.

And the way I understand Cavendish, no, it shouldn’t make blends hotter, if anything cooler.

Here’s a nice article on Cavendish if you haven’t seen it.

Which Cavendish blends have you been smoking?

 

[PipeIT]

As asked before, what blends have you smoked? That might help if it could be related to a particular blend?

Also when you mention hot, as in temperature hot?

A lot of pipe tobacco, given the leaf varieties and PH balance also lead to a chemical bite or spicy hot sensation too, not heat related.

Cavendish is typically pretty mellow. Maybe it’s easier for the smoker to smoke it too hot?

I agree with the general consensus which is that it probably has something to do with a particular blend or the way the smoker hits the blend.
Fun side note didn't really like burly for a little while. I smoked it faster then other blends because it never bites me. After slowing down I realized it wasn't burly it was how I smoked it.
