Given the success of the banana nut muffin tobacco, it leads us to wonder: what other unexplored flavors could be made into aromatic tobaccos?
I've compiled a short list.
1. Basil

2. Donut

3. Jalapeno

4. Kiwi

5. Okra

6. Beer

7. Curry

8. Aspirin

9. Pickle

10. Buttermilk
Did I miss any?

Cilantro... actually, it would be really interesting to see what that would be like. Not "good" necessarily, but "interesting."
Maybe we need teriyaki aros as well?

I don't think most of us have caught up with Captain Black Grape yet, though one member posts it on "What Are You Smoking?" Oregano, mint, sage, and lavender -- though I think you have to be careful with many flavorings, which could be toxic in unaccustomed doses. Or at least sickening and unpleasant. Sassafras, oats, mint.

I once had a mint flavored blend at a Briary event, where a guy approached me and asked me to try his homemade blend. The guy was Italian, and his English was hard to understand. So, I wasn't sure what the tobacco was going to be. But, when he pulled out an Altoids tin and packed my pipe for me, after two puffs of an unusually strong mint flavored, sinus clearing, cloying smoke, I politely went to the bathroom and emptied my pipe and scrubbed it out. Mint isn't for me.

Ill second that notion, I made the mistake of trying "Eileens Dream"...one of the worst tobaccos ive EVER smoked, and I like aromatics. It was also nearly floating in water it was so wet in the tin.

Please your pet cats and smoke a catnip aromatic. (I'm not recommending, have no idea what effect this might have on you. I'm joking.)

I've actually smoked cat nip before a long time ago, and I'm ok. I've actually smoked catnip before a long time ago, and I'm ok. I'm ok, I'm ok,...what were we talking about?

A proper clove aromatic.
I'll tell you kanse, I think Boston 1776 has a clove aspect to it when smoked fresh, but it can also bite a little when it's fresh.
