I'm new to pipes only 1 1/2 months but I'm learning the taste part of it. I like em sweet. My favorite is Boswells berry cobbler and sweet dreams. I can barely TASTE them. Is there a blen where you find TOO sweet? Maybe that will kick my taste buds into gear. Also I heard smoking cigarettes will hamper your tasting ability!! So I'm on my last pack!!!! I will get this pipe smoking thing down!! Bhahahah. Please let me know what you all consider to be WOW that was sweet. Is there anything I can drink or do to get my tobacco sweeter? If this sounds weird I'm sorry I just know me and I think the SWEET will shock my taste buds into high gear. I'm also hoping that within this week the ciggs will be outta my mouth and I can concentrate on the lovely pipe smoke all by its self! Again I thank you all for your comments.

Hey man, first tip is quit the nails - but it sounds like you know that already.
I didn't really discover full pipe-weed flavor until I got into Latakia blends. May sound weird - it did to me - but that's what my experience has been. Wait until next week, you may just find what you're looking for in your mailbox. :)

Hobbits weed from tewksbury co. The sweetest smelling and tasting tobacco I have had.

I have always avoided highly sweet tobacco blends. If there's any sweetness, I want it in support

of the leaf, not instead of it. For example, I like Lane's LL-7, which has a little vanilla, carmel, and

whatever, but you still get the Virginia as the base. However, you are part of a very large cohort of

sweet tobacco fans, as illustrated by the expansive array of sweet aromatics featuring chocolate,

berries of various kinds, sweet liquors, and so on. The blenders wouldn't be featuring such a list

of sweet aromatics if there was a substantial customer base, so you are part of a trend.

The new Great Dane mixture from Russ' creation for MM is very sweet. I am not a sweet pipe guy but I enjoyed it very much.

Dan Tobacco Devil's Holiday is pretty hardcore but smoke it in a cob or dedicated pipe. It will ghost like nothing you have ever smoked. I smoked some Ashton's guilty pleasure and it was quite sweet but probably not the sweetest. Definitely only lite the center and smoke slow.

CAO's Cherry Bomb (Whatever the hell its name is) is horrible sweet koolaid pow in the face stuff. Way too strong for me.
W.O. Larson's Signature Blend is heaven on earth.

Thanks for that tip, Spartan. I've seen Cherry Bomb in the local B&M (mostly a cig store), now I feel confident to try it! :D

Marine, watch out for a relapse--just when you think you've won the battle over cigs, it suddenly comes back and hits you in the face. So remain ever vigilant.

Ok thanks for the tip. I bought a e cigg just in case I need to take a couple hits but not using that to replace ciggs. I def want to try some of that cherry bomb but if you get some let me know how it is.

Oh, gosh, please get rid of that cig! I tried the same thing a dozen times, and it always ends the same: you end up going back and getting a pack, then before you know it you're hooked again. Please believe me. That's why it took me over 35 years to finally quit.

I'll definitely let you know about Cherry Bomb. But drop that cig in the toilet bowl!
