Recommend Me an Aromatic Please

[Charlie718]

I’m looking to try a few aromatics. Seeing as they are very different from cigars I don’t know what my tastes are yet so I thought I’d start with what an old teacher used to smoke for nostalgia and that’s Captain Black - Cherry. Any recommendations will be appreciated and eventually tried.

If you're just starting out it's unlikely that you'll be able to taste them. But if you must have cherry, go with Cult Blood Red Moon.

I second Cult Blood Red Moon. It’s the only true aromatic I ever smoke.

 

[Charlie718]

I only picked cherry because I figured it’s a place to start lol. I grabbed a cob to “ruin” with an Aro ?, I’ll grab a tin of Cult on my next order. I’ll grab a new cob for every type of flavor I order also.

Wilke Cherry Cavendish, No. 515, Rum and Maple (the best I have ever smoked), Rum Cake, Vermont Maple Cavendish, Sweet Sweet, Peanut Butter and Chocolate, and Peanut Butter.

I would also recommend Cult Blood Red Moon for a cherry aromatic. If you want a vanilla/caramel flavoring then Sutliff Molto Dolce is also quite good. Don't worry about the snap crackle and pop. It is moist but it still smokes good.
Out of the 43 blends in my cellar those two are the only aromatics I stock.

Almost any of them. Why not just read what they're supposed to have in them and get a few thought sound good or intriguing. For example if you like mangoes why not type that into the tobacco search on any of the sellers websites.

I smoke primarily Virginias and aromatics. Go ahead and use a briar. Permanent ghosting really isn't a thing.

I don’t think you need a new cob for every flavor. As a cigar smoker myself, I’d encourage you to go English or English aros first. Many great recommendations will come - but, try Boswell’s Northwoods and Mild English. There is some sweet, but also better tobacco flavors. Also good would be SPC Potlatch and Peterson’s old Dublin. These are only from the cigar jump. Also, one I plan to get soon are Warped blends - using cigar leaf. Cloud hopper looks decent, look forward to trying.

just be careful - aros can burn the hell out of your tongue.

Because it is now in stock in easy to find places, usually not the case, Sillems Black.

Aylesbury now isn't it?

Devil's Holiday and Sakura are two of my favorites.

I will go with Ashton Gold Rush. One of my favorite aros. Or Founding Fathers by Cornell And Diehl.

 

[Charlie718]

It’s going to take a while to try all these, fun times coming

Aylesbury now isn't it?

Quite right. For some reason SP still markets it as Sillems. But I'm sure the tins will be Aylesbury.

 

[shanez]

Devil's Holiday has one of the easiest to detect flavors I know of in an aro and it's a great flavor.

The Wilke’s Rum & Maple is pretty awesome. You’ll be sniffing your own mustache the rest of the day. Their #191 is another great one. Wilke’s aros are my favorite “full-blown aromatics” so far. Dan Tobacco Blue Note is quite good, too.
I really enjoy “semi-aromatics,” or “tobacco-forward” aromatics, too. C&D Visions of Celephais and Dreams of Kadath are great, but I really like Kentucky tobacco, and not everyone does. I’m working on a nicely aged tin of GLP Stonehenge that is flat-out amazing, if you’re ok with a Lakeland style tobacco. Erinmore is a classic mixed fruit “semi-aromatic” that is excellent.
