The chocolate was lightly applied, and there were a few vanilla notes from the black cavendish. The Virginias were grassy and rather bland. The burley was a little nutty. Both the burley and Virginias became more obvious by the half way point as the chocolate seemed to weaken. Barely had any nicotine. Needed to be sipped to avoid warming the tongue, but it left little moisture in the bowl, and needed few relights. The after taste was okay. Was an all day work and play smoke.

Too bad this company is out of business. This was probably the best chocolate flavored blend available. Creamy chocolate that is not overpowering to the nose or the palate.

This is an aromatic blend with a good chocolate scent from the tin, but there is truly not much of it in taste. The only good thing I can say about this blend is that the Virginia leaves are the only component that gives it any flavor at all.

Not Recommended.

I was buying my years supply of Cobs when a tin of this on sale caught my eye. Since I like SG Chocolate Flake I figured why not...it was a Friday night after all. The tin aroma was delicious and smells exactly like Baileys Irish Cream Whiskey, the dark brown, black and golden leaf was asthetically pleasing. It packed easy, stayed lit and burned even and slow all the way to the bottom of the bowl. The aroma was wonderful.

The chocolate flavor was subtle, just enough to taste it, again just like Baileys Irish Cream Whiskey. The VA added slightly detectable tart notes, and the burley taste came through about mid bowl really adding a nutty and creamy aftertaste. The bottom third was exceptionally smooth, creamy and nutty with the burley coming to the fore. Absolutely no tounge bite at all in this aeromatic.

Where I rate SG Chocolate flake a solid 4 this is a solid 3 and half. SG wins by an edge, but the quality of this one combined with its price makes it easy to grab a tin of this instead on SG. A great change of pace smoke for "sometime" aeromatic fans.

I like this well enough, it is not too overpowering and retains some tobacco flavor. It burns well once it gets going and has a pleasant room note. I prefer more tobacco taste then this provides but I have certainly had worse blends. I perhaps found it dull, and while I like simple burley blends, this blend is not simple but come across as clunky. I am not sure where they were going with this but they need to keep going. Since I am not a big aromatic fan I hate to say it but this needs more topping and sweeter tobacco. As something called chocholate cream perhaps it should be more of a special experience. It is sort of like a guy who comes on stage and tells you he will make you laugh, he would have to be really good after saying that. While it would be easy to push this from being decent to being foul I think they should try harder on this one. It did mix well with other tobacco imparting a little richer flavor to simple burley blends.
