I mainly smoke aromatics. The past couple of months I've been smoking Altadis Blue Note. I like 1Q and Captain Black. These are mild tobaccos. Do they make a strong aromatic? I'd like just a little more flavor.

Since you like aromatics, you might enjoy an aromatic that has some latakia....Shortcut to Mushrooms would be a good place to start... :clap:

Boswell's Aros are pretty darn good IMO, also C&D's Autumn Eve (if you like Maple) I read is very good...
Boswell's I have tried and really liked: Berry Cobbler, Christmas Cookie, Chocolate Cream & Sweet Tea

Two Friends English Chocolate, Villiger 1888 Mid Day (I love this one especially the toasted marshmallow flavor, but some might not agree that there is much flavor), W.O Larsen Signature Vintage Mixture, Samuel Gawith Fire Dance Flake. I'm sure there's more but those are a good start.

Not sure if you're looking for flavor from the tobacco or the casing. In the event you're looking for an aromatic that strongly carries the flavor to the smoke from the tin aroma then I'd suggest:
Mac Baren's 7 Seas Royal Blend and Vanilla Cream blend

Peterson's Connoisseur's Choice and Sunset Breeze

McClelland's Best of Show

CAO's Eileen's Dream

I second the Boswells suggestion. Before I got into English blends i was a aromatic smoker. They have some good blends. Sweet Tea, Christmas Cookie, and Berry Cobbler were my favorites. But now if it doesn't have any latakia I'm not interested =p.

I find that mixing in some of my favorite English with my favorite aromatic produces a really tasty smoke and mellows out any unpleasantness but also provides a unique aroma. For instance, last night I took a handful of Balkan Sasieni and threw in some Cornell and Diehl Irish Blessing. I loved the taste and the girlfriend loved the smell. Its the best of both worlds!
