Unique aromatic presentation by the Boswell clan. You will smell and taste the added topping with no problem unless your schnozz is busted. The flavor of the tobacco components does come through (surprisingly)as you smoke this aromatic blend. For those who enjoy added flavors this will be a bell ringer.

As for that caramel flavoring; it is delicious!

No Bite Delite is another fine offering from J.M. Boswell makers of some of the finer aromatics on the market today. No Bite lives up to its name as it's easy on the tongue, even with a little puffing. I find the chocolate flavor is a bit more forward than the caramel. If you are a fan of aromatics or just looking for a change of pace, this blend from the nice guys at Boswell's should be on your list. Recommended.

This is another great blend by Boswell Pipes & Tobacco. The note is of soft chocolate with a sweet tone. It has great smoking characteristics. You can slowly sip this one and enjoy or go all out with it and it delivers a great experience as well. With that said, the tobacco notes are present and not lost. Nicely balanced and blended. I enjoy this in the car when stuck in my morning Houston commute. When I open the car at the end of the work day, it couldn't smell any better and I am ready to kick up another bowl. The wife loves this one. Can't beat a great smoke you can light up anywhere that others will enjoy.

I prefer English blends most, but enjoy aromatics occasionally. When I have a taste for an aromatic, Boswells No Bite Delight is a great choice. Aromatics, for me, are more social. Thus, the room note is an important part of the pleasure. Boswells No Bite Delight has a distinctive creamy chocolate taste and aroma - much like, though lighter than, their Pipers Pleasure. Its not a complex or rich tobacco experience. Its not a meditative smoke, but pleasant, VERY smooth, and (as promised), has no bite at all. For those who like an occasional aromatic, but draw the line at "fruity" tobacco concoctions as I do, No Bite Delight will do nicely.

Just got my 1st boswell today. I also received a free sample of no bite delite. It is truly a delite. Makes me want to go buy a tootsie roll. NO bite delight will be on the top of my list.

Burns well with no bite, but I do not get the full "delite" bit. Taste is a little disappointing when compared to the aroma in the pouch. From the pouch there is a crazy smell of chocolate and caramel that just makes you want to eat the tobacco, but when smoked those flavors are a bit subdued and I felt that it tasted a bit on the more sour side than the sweetness I had imagined.

A worthwhile blend, but I did not really appreciate it as much as some of the reviewers here. I'd choose Raspberry Cream over this any day of the week!

*update: Sad to say that when pressed, this has more bite than both Raspberry Cream and Christmas Cookie... Still worthwhile for some, just not my cup of what have you.

*Update again: 3 weeks in a correctly sealed mason jar did it's job on the mixture. It's lost almost all of it's good flavor and most of the aroma. Now it just tastes really weird and not very good. Sad to say that it does not keep, not at all, not even a little! If you live close to the boswells and can get a little at a time just enough for 2 weeks then this is good. If you plan to keep it for longer you are fooling yourself. Either that or I got a bad (really bad) batch.

A very mild blend with no bite. Smooth smoke with lite flavor. A nice room note. I think that Christmas cookie and chocolate Creme are better aromatic Boswell blends with more flavor.

Non aromatic smokers, leave, this is not one for you. But if you are, this one will surprise you. i was given this in a trade. I expected it to be similiar to Lanes BLWB but instead, I got a murti colored ribbon/riff cut, very rich tasting blend that really won't bite and yet has a lot of flavor. This one reminds me of Scottys Butternut Burley with a fuller, richer taste. I smell sweet in the pouch, but the flavor is not overly so. I get caramel but a chocolate like note to it as well. It packs well in the pipe and only takes one light to get going and it stays lit well. I smoked this in a brand new pipe I am going to dedicate to aros, so I tasted the true flavor of this one and got none of the bite of breaking in a new pipe. I smoked it all the way down to the bottom to a dark grey ash and it was dry and no dottle at the bottom. The room note is wonderful yet it does disappear fast so would be a good wife pleaser. This would be wonderful for a new smoker to start with. I was truly caught off guard by this blend and like it very much. I highly recommend it.

This is a very nice blend. The flavor profile is not the common these days vanilla etc. This has more than a couple flavors going on. You don't see a lot of pipe tobacco these days doing the brandy vibe, but this is very nice. Mixed with the coffee and others it's provides a nice soft smoke and the quality of the tobacco used in it is head and shoulders better than most. It could certainly be an all day smoke if you so desire as it will not bite at all.

The tobacco is great but I would be remiss if that's all I talked about. But that's not all I'm going to talk about. Dan and Rachel are are simply nice people and folks that is not something to just be thrown out these days, they care and they love what they do. Please support them!

As far as aromatics go, this one might be at the top of my list. I’ve noticed I do seem to enjoy Boswell’s blends I’ve smoked for the most part, but there are a few samples I’ve received that don’t do much for me. This one...however...is delicious.

Chocolate is the first taste that comes to mind with this blend. I like mine to be dried out quite a bit before smoking. I find the burn and taste to be much better this way. It’s easier to sip on it rather than draw for the flavors. I’m have found that if you pull too hard on this, it gets a funky flavor. I do get some of the Carmel, but it’s well hidden behind the chocolate. Brandy? Don’t drink it so have no idea if that’s in here. If you plan to smoke wet, plan on a number of relights which, IMO, scorches the tobacco and flavor.

I’ve also discovered this one works better for me in a smaller pipe. Larger bowls tend to lose flavor on me a little more than halfway through the bowl - no matter how smoked. I also really enjoy this with a sweeter drink, cream soda Dr. Pepper is delightful with this blend.

I can smoke this one any time of day, so when I want to enjoy a sweet smoke I reach for this. I don’t smoke it every day, nor would I smoke it as an all day blend. I consider this one to be a treat, so maybe once a week or so. I also enjoy this with new pipe smokers as an introduction to what a great aromatic should be like. Good quality tobacco, excellent flavoring and a joy to smoke.

I will always have a steady supply of this on hand.

A very tasty aro. I definitely agree with the assessment that it tastes like a chocolate tootsie pop. I don’t get much caramel as the chocolate is the main star, but the tobacco is very present in the mix, too. Not overly sweet at all. Perfect for a Sunday afternoon back porch smoke with a cup of coffee. IMO the Boswells make the best aromatics today. If you’re looking for a tobacco forward aromatic with a chocolate twist, give this one a try. A very smooth and creamy smoke that lives up to the name with ....no bite!

this was one of my more liked bosewells aromatics. prob my fav out of the bunch, still very mild, but got more chocolate/something else out of this then the chocolate cream. decent blend, very "likable" for most

EDIT: I felt my No Bite DeLite review deserved an update now that I've smoked it multiple times and have had a chance to live with it. I have a much higher appreciation for the flavor of this tobacco. When I want a cool, full flavored smoke with no hassle - I go to this tobacco. It's one of those that will never let you down.

I'm bumping up to highly recommend with the only caveat being I still don't like the tin note. My wife also knows the moment I open it as it's so strong and distinctly musty.

-------------------

With Boswell, I'm always looking to try new blends. I haven't found a bad one yet. No Bite Delite was one of the highest rated so I figured I'd give it a shot.

Immediately, I can say it lives up to it's name. I dried it out overnight and it was still somewhat moist. It took some extra effort to get the char light but smokes like a train there after. I typically smoke on the hot side, just a curse I live with, and I smoked NBD HOT. No bite and full flavor. This is the perfect blend for new pipe smokers and those who struggle with smoking hot or getting good flavor out of their tobacco.

The flavor isn't my favorite, it's a bit musty and pungeant for my taste. Drying out it also filled my kitchen with a somewhat unpleasant smell. But it's hard to complain with the results and would recommend this to any aromatic fan.

There was certainly no bite here (or in any of their Aromatics), just a bag of goopy Cavendish that (to me) smelled of chocolate. Not milk chocolate, but rather chocolate being made (stop by Burlington WI for Chocolate Fest) with a kind of bitter dark chocolate aroma. Even the room smelled of hot cocoa, so imagine my surprise when I saw it was flavored with brandy, caramel, and coffee. Folks, it may be time for this reviewer to retire as my nose must be broken!

Anywho, the bag certainly gives off a powerful vapor (I guess the advertised flavors might be here), but damn if it ain't chocolate. The sticky mix won't dry out, no matter how long it's left out, but no matter, it burns exceptionally well. The smoke was deep and pleasant without being sugary, though my saliva was sweet afterwards.

Note: The listing says this is a cube cut (which it may of once been), but this was certainly a ribbon.

No Bile DeLite was a very easy smoking Aromatic that fills the room with delicious incense, but dang does the bag stink until then. If you are not an ardent Aromatic fan, you will likely consider this an overly topped kids blend.

I Order this blend because all the Boswell blends are greate. Only this one is not as good in my opinion for a aro blend. It smels fantastic thats for shure, but after light your pipe with it the taste is not a sweet as it smels. Realy a little dull and simple. After relight your pipe the taste is even worst. Roomnote is ok , also no bite at all. For a more aromatic choose the Chrismas blend.

No bite delight....Humm....I think I would have to go with "just not right delight". Don't get me wrong it is good but darn it Dan it could be so much better. I am left wanting much more of that great chocolate coffee flavor and it just falls short. As usual for all Boswell blends an outstanding tin note and a pleasing room note just not a strong enough taste. This is a good blend just not a great blend. Even smoked in a wonderful Boswell pipe but just could not squeeze enough taste to make me want to buy another tin.

I got this as a sample and it was good. A flavorful aromatic, with a hint of vanilla and some sweet under notes. It burns nicely from the tin, no bite as the name suggest. My only issue is it is so simipar to Boswell's Best. As an introduction to aromatics or those who always get tongue bite, i will recomment this blend. It is worth a try along with Boswell's Best or Piper's Plesaure.

Do you like heavy aromatics? No problem, this is your blend. Do you like complex tobacco taste? No problem, this is your blend. Boswell absolutely hit it out of the park with this one. The taste itself is mostly one of chocolate, but if you pay attention you can get the taste of brandy to edge out to the front, with a surprisingly salty caramel in a noticeable supporting role. Those who desire tobacco flavor will get notes out of the virginias if you look for them. Leaves a bit of moisture in the stem, but makes up for it with lots of smoke and a paper-white ash. Very well balanced blend, and at the time of this writing, one of my favorites.

No Bite Delite has my 3 favorite things in life.

Alcohol Candy Coffee.

The Virginia is a long, stringy shag-type cut while the cavendish is large, unpackable chunks. I spend a few minutes on my 2 oz pouch chopping the cavendish into more manageable pieces. This is one of the only Boswell blends that leave my fingers feeling sticky. No worries.....

Again, another great all day, crowd pleasing, no biting, unobtrusive concoction from Boswell. The coffee is more noticeable in the pouch than on the palate. The caramel is added just right to offer superb sweetness balanced with the coffee and slight brandy. I'm pleased to add another 4 star to No Bite Delite!!!

I tried a sample of No Bite Delight this morning and was surprise to see this was an aromatic when I read a few reviews today. I should have know this, but was so caught up in the taste of the Virginia, I thought it was just a VA blend. I seem to like most types of tobacco however and would really recommend this one. Easy to smoke, great taste and smell, and paired perfectly wit the French roast coffee I was drinking. I will smoke this blend all day today and update my review if I feel differently at the end of the day, do not anticipate this however as I enjoyed this so much on my drive in smoke today.

Smells very sweet from the bag. Definitely caramel and sometimes whiffs of vanilla and hints of fruit. It smokes just as sweet as it smells. Wonderful room note and it's name delivers...no tongue bite, unless you have to relight (which may be the case if you don't let it dry just a tad before smoking). A great aromatic that also tastes like tobacco. Great job Boswells!!!

No bite delite.... Challenge accepted! What an enjoyable mix from this tobacco. The aroma presented was pleasurable, and the smoke well kinda had some fun with this one. I normally will sip sip sip any fine aromatic but with this one it was smoked hard in big gulps. To my delite no tongue bite really was a fun smoke and very enjoyable and really a highly recommended smoke for any novice pipe smokers and should be seen in any expert pipe smokers collection as well. Boswells still has proven to me a solid company making solid aros.

By far one of the best aromatics I've ever tried and a new favorite with a permanent place in the rotation. Ordered a few oz's of the stuff from Bosewells (very nice people btw) and had my tobacco two days later... Damn they ship quickly.

First off I have to comment that the pouch aroma was detectable through the box it was shipped in. When I opened the bag a very very strong aroma of dark chocolate hit me. This is not 'kinda smells like chocolate' its smell its near exactly like a tootsie roll. The pouch aroma is intoxicating and will waft through any tiny gap in the zip lock seal.

The moisture content was a bit on the heavy-side in a very strange way. The tobacco isn't sticky nor is it sopping wet or juicy... This made me fear that despite their claims some crazy new humectant was used. I attempted to dry the tobacco out for 30 minutes under my desklamp as I do with every tobacco, but the stuff refused to dry out--- even a little. The stuff packed very well (another surprise, I expected the moisture to make an airtight seal) and lit even better. Makes me wonder what the heck they do to this baccy to make it act this way.

Not much flavor was to be had on lightup... Or second light.. Then after my first tamp (around the first 1/5th of the bowl) an amazing incense-ish, warm caramel, butterscotch and chocolate flavor came through. The stuff burned down at an average speed without the hint of needing a relight, even after letting it sit a minute. I taste some orientals, I think burley, spiced cavendish and perhaps the smallest trace amount of latakia.

This tobacco lives up to its name. NO bite and a delight! If I could recommend ONE tobacco to a beginner pipesmoker, this would be it.

Update--- After reaching the end of my 1/4lb bag this tobacco has lost most or all of its flavor. Now it is just like smoking warm air that turns to a sickly chemical taste near the end of the bowl. Another strange thing is that this stuff is as 'wet' as the day it got here over a month ago, that's a bit scary. If you like this stuff order in small batches, or maybe vacuum seal the stuff. As for me, I had a good run with this tobac, but the total lack of nicotine and the vanishing flavor makes me think I will only order in 1oz bags when I start missing the flavor.

Throwing out the final curtain call on this series, let us delve into a closer examination of one of the best-selling Boswell house aromatics. Solid wisdom foretells never to bite off more than you can feasibly chew. By doing so the aforementioned tenet of experiential learning might prove to be a bit overwhelming. Yet, bringing current matters into perspective, when there is no bite in return, a fair suggestion is that your probability for success is much more achievable.

Given that comforting assurance, please assent to JM Boswell’s No Bite Delite, a popular mild-medium entry of solid Virginian and assorted Cavendish strains. This thickly mixed cut of luscious, smoke-ready ebon and golden tobaccos is smartly doused in an immersion of brandy, caramel, and coffee, or at least according to TobaccoReviews.com. However, upon testing this mixture, I do have a few qualifying bones to pick concerning that published notice.

Principally, irrefutable evidence within the forward pouch aroma indicates a high-spirited blast of rich cocoa/dark chocolate as a present and all-powering element. Just behind this boldness lies an orderly run of warmer sugary caramel, supported by a dark embittered coffee-like odor, as the tell-tale confirmation of the scripted recipe’s listing. Further sweetening this glazy characterization, I did denote a tiny impression of some well contained vanilla softly circulating about as well. Getting past this coating-centric nose, the registration meagerly yields a muffled hint of plain tartness, generally sweet Virginian wood, and a fleeting pass of citrusy tang.

Much like the fragrance, at first lighting, the buttery complex of taste demonstrates a clean note of dense cocoa/chocolate unleashing itself with unqualified assertiveness. Coming in forward accompaniment, just about a half step behind, the featuring of baked caramel goodness wraps itself around nicely, as it brings a lightly tinted accent of minor vanilla-nougat sugar. Amid the low-middle tier, a flavorsome tone of roasted coffee surfaces in a well concealed manner, perceivably easily missed in the fusion of the two stronger additives.

In essence, a delicious chocolate-caramel preeminence riding on a consistent bottom of Red Virginia defines No Bite Delite’s standard persona. And although the chocolate does perform as the hands-on master for the initial third of the bowl, it does eventually relax to a more complementing intensity, finding proper balance as the caramel’s strength tends to realize renewed brilliance.

Now in regard to the listed brandy ingredient, perhaps it is there or perhaps it is not. Either way, nothing distinguishable was discovered resulting from repetitive sessions. At best, I did record a dark fruity spice and a modest degree of zest especially on the retro-hale but do attribute those to the confluence of the Virginian and the Cavendish more so than to any alcohol-based additive. In a word, I am highly skeptical if brandy inclusion is to be found within the current recipe. Could be misled, who’s to say?

Like many aromatics, No Bite Delite’s stylish coatings tend to taper considerably at the approximate halfway point, leaving just a sweetened caramelized ghosting of their former selves. In this transition, the pleasing savor of the native tobaccos, therefore, is allowed to progress more deeply and fully in registerable presence. By my accounting, the Red Virginia varietal continues to show unquestionable supremacy with a projection of sweet wood that is gingerly seasoned by a dash of pleasant vegetal spice.

Furthermore, the influence of the Bright is candidly reserved, showing as a nice secondary complement. This leaf endows a cajoling tanginess, aged raisin, and an occasional flash of a hardy citrus hay note. Finally, even though there is an ample volume of Cavendish within this particular mixture, its role is that of a flavor facilitator, as these strains tender only certain basic charred, smoky wood embellishments.

One thing of absolute truth is that the spent room essence evoked by the smoking of No Bite Delite presents itself as a most courtly companion. Growing up as I did, a grade school companion’s family operated a local homemade candy shop. As a young boy, spending time inside their store experiencing the heavenly smell of chocolate caramels in the making, was a gratifying sensation that I will long remember. This tobacco’s creamy, delectable fragrance throws me back to those fondest of memories. Most assuredly pleasant to a wider crowd.

And in final, Boswell’s creation lives up truthfully to its namesake, as there is surely no bite which is splendidly delightful! Burning consistently with well-tempered heat, flawless moisture, and smoothness of texture, No Bite Delite presents a mellow light-hearted excursion that centers one comfortably appeased by its inherently sweetened goodness. If in fact, I have successfully enticed you to explore its unknown grandeur, then bully for you my friend, let the learning begin! In trying this noteworthy aromatic, unquestionably, you will be the wiser. 3.3 Pipes

Bag note super sweet coffee, coco, diced ribbon cut , Lots of black Cavendish. Very moist needed a bit of drying time. I am not sure where they came up with the name. The no bite part is correct at least. I found this tobacco fairly harsh at the start. there is a wisp of coco flavor . I don't really taste coffee but the forward is black Cavendish. with some chocolate notes. Very mild blend. Has a slight chemical aftertaste up to the 1/2 way point. I assume the crackling I hear in the bowl at the 1/2 way point are the Virginias stoving or the toppings? . Not much flavor in this blend overall. Nic hit is mild. doesn't burn too hot. Gets a bit better at the 3/4 mark I think as the Virginia start providing more flavor and it gets a bit sweeter. Not bad not great 3

-After several more bowls of this blend I have revised it up some though it remains a three star blend.

No Bite Delite is a good all around smoking experience for those who like very sweet tasting aromatics. Yet it has one nagging flaw that keeps me from really calling this a favorite of mine.

In the bag this blend smells of a port and dark chocolate reduction. Perhaps port flavored chocolate truffles. There's a little bit of a rancid note but that is likely due to brandy flavoring. It isn't displeasing, but it does give you the impression of fermentation. Fairly dark in color Virginia blend.

No bite, as the name suggests has very little tongue bite. A dry and cool smoking experience as well. The flavoring did come through fairly well in the taste of the tobacco. I would describe it as one of my favorite cocktails, a Manhattan. Flavors of whiskey. Spiciness of aromatic bitters. A hint of cherry. All with a very pronounced sugary sweetness that coats your palate for a good while afterwards. Overall a very nice aromatic blend that has gained more favor from me over time.

Lighting started off strong and I thought I would have no problems with relights. Yet halfway through it began to struggle and I had to relight despite constant puffing and tamping. It fairly quickly went out again. Probably a thirty minute smoke which is too short for my liking. This has remained the most significant drawback of this blend over time for me.

The room note was sweet and aromatic as you would expect. I got the caramel note right after puffing but it quickly vanishes. It is like caramelizing sugar in a pan rather than a caramel candy. A very light sweetness lingers for a good amount of time afterward.

I liked No Bite Delite. I might consider giving it another couple ounces and experiment with a different pipe to see if I can get it to stay lit. If it were not for that attribute I would be giving this blend four stars.

This is my favorite aromatic tobacco. The caramel taste is natural and almost feels like caramel belongs with tobacco. The smell is amazing and I get the same tootsie roll taste others have mentioned. The blend is not too sweet but still gives just the right amount of caramel flavor

Wonderful blend with cocoa top note in bag, bowl, and room note.

This is a great morning coffee, end of day smoke, designated a regular upon first taste.

No bite or gurgle at any point; good, steady burn with no re-light required after charring / second lights.

Boswell provides excellent, friendly service, and fast shipping.

Highly recommend.

Update: Recently purchased a Butz-Choquin Amadeus churchwarden and chose this for the first smoke - completely, totally wonderful; a couple of lights, no bite or hint of gurgle, no bitterness at the end and very, very little dottle.

The smell in the bag and taste in the mouth is unmistakably tootsie roll. Or, rather, whatever natural thing tootsie roll is a shadow of. Unlike the vast majority of aromatics, it tastes exactly like it smells, which is a startling discovery you have to experience to believe.

Most tobaccos leave an aftertaste in my mouth that is less pleasant than the smoke itself was; well, not only does this tobacco not do that, it leaves my mouth feeling positively refreshed!

It lives up to its namesake, misting my tongue in a cool fog.

I purchased only 1 oz. and went through it quickly, so I did not experience the fading of flavor that others mentioned. Their experience does put a damper on my "delite," because I'd love to hold onto a good bit of this stuff long term, but take their word that I should not.

This is very easy on the tongue with lots of flavor. The chocolate seems to come out more than the caramel and vanilla, but they are all there, which creates one of the most unique aromatics I have ever tried. I just plain love it. I did not like their chocolate cream, but I love this because it is a lot more complex, rather than just being a straight blend of any one flavor.

No bite delight tastes and smells just like a tootsie roll. This is a very good aromatic that actually has taste. Midway through the bowl I get a dark carmel,creamy taste with a hint of latikia. This tobacco just tastes good and it will make you want to smoke another bowl right after you finish the first one.

As a VERY beginner smoker, please take my ratings with a grain of salt. I can rate wines fairly accurately, but only because I have tried so many of them. That aside... This was an AMAZING beginners smoke!!

When I received my 2oz in the mail, I could smell the strong odors of Chocolate and Cherry through the UPS packaging! My roommates hate the smell of smoke, so I was very hesitant to smoke on my back porch, even with nobody home. When my roommates got home later that night, they were mad because they could smell my "Chocolate covered Cherries" and I had obviously eaten them all lol.

When they say there is no bite.. they mean NO BITE!! I could have probably sucked down a bowl in 10 minutes without so much as a sore spot. I wasn't sure if it was my beginners technique or the tobacco itself, but it was hard to light when I first got it. Seems to have gotten easier, but it has also gotten a bit drier too. All in all a VERY good smoke, and I will be ordering more of it as soon as I get paid this week!

This is one more a nice Boswell that i have found. It's a very very light tobacco, taste is a punch of caramel and a bit of cream. Realy like name "no bite", ideal for every day or on summer btw. Intense and pleasant. Is most recommended (4 star) for who like a good aromatic mild blend.

A delite indeed. Very easy everyday smoke. Sweet room note that is pleasing to non-smokers. Good taste, with no nasty aftertaste. Lights and stays lit fairly well. I let it dry for half an hour before I smoked it. I liked it a lot. I tried a bunch of Boswell blends and this is in my top 10 for sure. Will be ordering more soon.

This is one of my favorites from Boswells as well as one of my favorite Blends period. It's defenately in a league of it's own and I knew something was different the first time I sampled it. It's aroma is much more chocolate, it's taste much more caramel-like. (To me anyway). The touch of Latakia and Oriental give it a complex, richer layer of flavor. It has an earthyness to it, a slight spice note, subtle nutty character but the caramel and vanilla/chocolate are way up front. There are small hints of different tobaccos throughout the bowl. Much more aromatic tasting upon lighting where you notice the caramel. Halfway through the bowl richer flavors develop and it just all comes together. A gentle yet rich and fuller bodied blend. Packs, lights and smokes dry and well...no bite at all with a very desert like room note. The flavor does fade quickly if left in the bag. It's a great blend to smoke fresh for it's full flavor.

I'm not trying to sound too in depth about it, but it's defenately one of the tastier, fuller bodied,complex and satisfying aromatics I've ever smoked. A No Bite Delight it truly is!

A very pleasant and light flavor, with a very faint oriental and/or English feel?, though the usual Boswell caramel predominates. With Raspberry Cream, this makes a tasty mix.

A pleasant tobacco for a change of pace. I generally prefer English blends but once in a while enjoy an aromatic, and this one absolutely fits the bill. Wonderful room note and pleasant albeit mild flavors - it really does taste and smell like caramel.

I have one pipe that I reserve for this blend. If aromatics are not your regular fare you may want to use a dedicated pipe or get a corncob just to try it out. This one leaves a distinctive sweet smell in the bowl that I find very pleasant by itself (sometimes I take the pipe off the rack just to take a whiff of the bowl) but I'm sure would taint any non-aromatic tobacco that followed it.

Other reviewers have already commented on the yummy pouch aromas of chocolate and caramel and the exquisite room note that this blend produces. That makes the "Delight" part of the blend name absolutely true.

But the real question is: what bout the "No Bite" part?

Like all Boswell blends, there IS NO bite, period, the end.

I don't know how they do it.

Got this today and to try some (along with a few others mind you). Just opening the bag you get sense of one of the drinks from a coffee shop. You can smell a rich chocolate. I imagine this going very well with a flavored expresso. I found the scent of this absolutely fantastic. Smokes very cool and stays lit. Initially I was surprised at the deepth of taste of the tobacco, however taste lightened the further I got through it. I kept finding a bit of sweetness under my tongue as I smoked it which was I guess part of the delight.

Great stuff!!! What you smell is what you get. There are notes of caramel and chocolate that find their way to the nose and the tongue. Very smooth and creamy. The latakia adds a toasty essence to the flavor. Smokes cool and dry - absolutely no bite. This blend should appeal to nearly anyone. Lights easy, stays lit, and gives off lots of creamy white smoke.

CAUTION!!! THIS TOBACCO IS HABIT FORMING AND VERY ADDICTIVE! PROCEED WITH CAUTION!

A for sure "go to" blend. The pouch note smells heavily of chocolate, however, it does not smell or taste that way when smoked. Seems overmoist, but takes to a match perfectly and is easy to keep lit without numerous relights. I suggest letting it dry out a little, as it can heat up the briar otherwise - but no bite. A delight.

I asked for this based on recommendations and was pleased with the choice. I was reading a book and was enjoying the smoke and I realized how truly bite free this was. I don't normally smoke two bowls of any tobacco in succession but once I finished my first bowl and loaded up another pipe with No Bite DeLite and could not have been more pleased. Chocolate and caramel blending gave this a nice finish. Nicely done Jim!

This is another great blend from the Boswell's. This is probably my favorite from them. It's smooth and mild yet full of flavor. It's got a warm cramel flavor like the description states, with a little chocolate/vanilla and some spice notes that really come together well. This is defenately a "go to" blend for me.

Every one of the Boswell blends I've tried have all been high quality, tasty blends. They have little to no bite and most are clean, dry smokes for being heavy aromatics. What you like better than others is all personal preference. For me this is becoming the perfect aromatic and what I've been looking for.

No Bite Delite is another in a long line of successful aromatics from Boswell's Pipes and Tobaccos. I believe this one was blended by J.M.'s son Dan. In the pouch or jar it has a mottled appearance, with brown ribbons mixed with black chopped pieces. The pouch aroma is chocolate with caramel overtones.

NBD lights easily for a cased aromatic and doesn't require a lot of relights, like many topped tobaccos do. I packed my pipe with the Franck method and it worked very well. The taste is not overly sweet, and some good tobacco flavor is mixed in with what sweetness there is. The room note is grand and a favorite of my wife's. NBD burns down to a fine gray ash with little to no dottle.

Scores for No Bite Delite: flavor- 16 of 20; lighting and burn- 8 of 10; value- 8 of 10. 32 points equals a ** rating for No Bite Delite. The Boswell offering of winning tobaccos continues.

I would recommend this because it really does not give you any bite! I ordered some of this and I smoked it as fast as I could and I really didn't get any bite at all. Aromas are ok. The flavors are mild, too mild for me, but some will enjoy that. I'm a cigar smoker, so alot of things are mild to me compared to others. I would like to have a little more sweetness and complexity in this blend. But like I said, I would keep this for the ones who have a problem with tongue bite. Overall Boswell makes my favorite blends and they have very good quality blends. Very consistent.

I love, love, love, LOVE this blend! It has almost become my permenant morning smoke, and one thing I've found: this goes GREAT with a cup of coffee. This blend is sometimes presented as somewhat one-dimensional. I think this blend has a lot going for it. Every time I smoke it, I notice something different. That caramel really gives it the finishing touch. All around good smoke.

As the name says, there's no bite in this blend. It is a rich, yet mild smoke that was very enjoyable. it won't bowl you over with amazing flavors, but it does have a light caramel taste that satisfies. Moisture level was perfect to pack and smoke. There was no goop at the bottom of the bowl either. The room note was more noticeable at the beginning, but was still pleasant at the very end. It's a very nice, mild blend. I'll keep some on hand for sure.

This pipe tobacco is very nice and has premium tobacco in it! I smoked this last night and could tell right away from lighting it that the name of this product is true. When you light it you can taste a little carmel but the best part of it is that you can not make it bite! The room smell goes away about 15mins after you smoke it! It did not bother my wife at all. This is a good blend to try.

Very mild with a caramel flavor without the ?bite?. Burns exceptionally well. One sided taste with not much going on but a pleasing taste. Worth giving a try as I don't thing you will be dissapointed. An "all around" good smoke if you're looking for something not strong or overwhelming. Velvety without a nasty aftertaste or sting.

The name says it all. No bite and a delightful smooth smoke with a pleasant caramel taste that lasts all the way to the bottom. It did leave somewhat of a sticky residue around the top of the bowl but that did not take away from the enjoyment of the smoke. Could not detect the nicotine. This is a nice tobacco for a change of pace.
