TOP BLACK CHERRY

[barkar]

Bought some TOP BLACK CHERRY. Don't like it very much. Will smoke it because I paid for it but I DO NOT recommend it..

Really? I find it quite enjoyable. Just goes to show how different people's tastes can be.

Try blending in some Burley with it, I like a 50/50 mixture

I don't smoke cherry blends much, but when I do this is my favorite.

I didn't like it at first. But later smoked it real real slow in a cob on a cold night under the stars..the flavor was nice. So that being said, it has to be just right for me to like it. My problem is using it up once I've opened a tin; wish I had someone to split it with. I recommend saving it for the winter.

Funny thing--I usually avoid such blends, but on a whim for a bit of cherry flavoring, I tried a bit of Lane Very Very Cherry and got a dreadful case of nicotine overdose. Figured I may have been smoking it too quickly. So--fast forward a few weeks, and I tried another bowl--this time nice and slow. About half way through I had to give it up--the room was spinning, I had a pounding headache, and borderline nausea. I'll give the remainder away to anybody who wants it, through I imagine that shipping 2 ounces (minus two bowlfuls) of tobacco isn't the most cost-effective thing one can do. If anybody here lives near Cheshire, Connecticut, drive on by and you can have the stuff.

Sorry you didn't like it Barker...
To me TBC, isn't really what you think a cherry blend will taste like, I think it's the most natural tasting cherry blend I have tried...I've tried many cherry blends that taste too much like cherry that it turned me of on cherry blends, that is until TBC...
I usually layer it with some light english for a really enjoyable smoke, and smoke it lightly...

Huh, Thanks for the heads up Barker, I just ordered some and its in the mail. Ha!
I choose this cherry blend because I find most other ones quite hot, and seeing as this is Cavendish it might be cooler

I didn't like this one at all. I barely smoked any of it. The casing is pretty well dried out now, though. I tried it over a year ago and I never enjoyed it.
G&H Top Black Cherry, McClelland Tastemaster, and Dan Da Vinci are three well-regarded aromatics that I bought when I first got into online orders, and I never took a liking to either of them.
Aromatics just aren't my style, I've learned... Give me a natural tasting tobacco any day.

 

[barkar]

I'll try mixing it with something as suggested...thanks

C&D Dark Cherry Cavendish is a very pleasant smoke for me. All tho I haven't tried any other cherry blend to compare it to, I'm kinda set with it. Thanks for the heads up on the TBC tho.
