Floral Pipe Tobacco?

[cosmicfolklore]

Interesting how threads requesting a specific note in the profile go directly to heavily aromatic stuff. It is going to be hard to find an aromatic with no burley.
But, first off... what cigars are you talking about have this floral? Because I don't know of any besides those Acid cigars that have a topping that one would admit to actually smoking. Is there one that has a natural floral not in the leaf used?

If you are talking about a natural floral taste in the tobaccos, you may want to try some oriental/Virginia blends, or maybe even Folklore. I can pick up some floral notes in that one.

But, if you do mean an artificial added flavor, GH&c are definitely the king of sopping up the perfumes. For a Virginia in that range, you might want to try Curley Cut Deluxe, but it is usually out at the usual vendors. However, it is one that does better with some age in the cellar before you start to smoke it. Fresh it can be a bit harsh on the throat. Aged it takes on a flavor that reminds me of what Escudo would be like without the perique... or what Escudo used to be like.

I know you weren't asking me, but for floral, Arturo Fuente 858 Rosado (red foot band) and aged Cuban Romeo y Julieta are reliable for floral notes. I also get them on occasion from the Illusione "Standard Documents" line (the original line with white band, black lettering, and the conspiracy-related vitola names).

It pops up here and there elsewhere, but usually in aged Cubans in my experience.

So... would you interpret the question to mean that he is wanting a cased or topped floral from added artificial flavorings, or tobaccos that may have natural floral notes?

you could test the waters with Kendal Creme Flake. Ennerdale and Dark Flake Scented are all in

 

[cosmicfolklore]

For natural floral notes and NOT topped or cased tobaccos...

GLPs Embarcadero, has a slight floral.
Savinelli Doblone d'Oro
4Noggins Prairie Wind also has notes of citrus and floral

You might look for Virginia dominant blends with Orientals or Turkish. There are several different Turkish varieties that get lumped into this category, so it is sometimes hit or miss.

These are all not "in your face" florals. It is just a natural aroma in the leaf blend. Not topped to have that flavor.

I suspect that Peretti's No Name has a floral note, just from reading about it, but I haven't tried it yet. Floral notes in a pipe tobacco in my experience are quite off-putting at first, but then I get used to them, then I end up craving them. I think it has to do with brain damage of some sort.

Savinelli 140th anniversary has a great floral touch............. It doesn't come around often, but it's in stock now at SP............. It's more of a "Natural Wildflowers" type of note.

Rose petals in your bath? If you like that sort of thing, go for McConnell’s Red Roses.

I've seen that one before discussed. I just can't imagine... ich

I think it’s quite popular on the continent, along with ‘Kentucky Bird’.
I vaguely remember smoking Red Roses years ago. The petals didn’t really have any effect but the blend itself was too weak overall.

In re-reading, I'm not sure and don't know if he cares. If someone will smoke aromatics, they'll smoke anything in theory, right? I'm more curious to know which cigars he's been smoking that are floral, in case I've missed some. @Coreios , care to share?

Anything in a tin from Gawith.

I don't smoke flavored or infused cigars. I meant that more natural floral hint you get with some natural cigars. But I do sometimes smoke aro pipe tobacco and I would love that floral note Ive always enjoyed in cigars beefed up on steroids with an aro pipe tobacco.

Sounds up my ally. Thanks!

Can you list a few, so that (if we have also smoked those) we can better understand what kind of floral? And, for those of us who haven't had them, we can look for them.

I smoke natural cigars and have always enjoyed the natural floral note. I want that on drugs in an aro pipe tobacco. lol
