Try some untopped black cav straight, like Lane BCA. It's a very mild smoke as it's just black cav, or try the Danish as another member mentioned. I personally love aromatics but tend to buy the Danish ones and don't seem to have any issue. You could also try the breath smoking method, it made a world of difference for me once I figured it out. Enhanced Pipe-Smoking Flavor and Comfort with Breath Smoking - https://www.smokingpipes.com/smokingpipesblog/single.cfm/post/enhanced-pipe-smoking-flavor-and-comfort-with-breath-smokingThanks for all the input guys. Now I have got some experimenting to do. I was ready to write off anything sweet with cav in the blend. I have gotten some good feedback and recommendations from you guys. Much appreciated.
I feel crappy just hearing the words "sweetened black cavendish."I have come to appreciate most all types of tobacco that I have tried but have yet to try any aromatics. I am hesitant to try any because every time I smoke BCav it makes me feel crappy and my mouth taste terrible. I am thinking it must be a high sugar content thing or maybe I am mistaken in thinking so. I would love to hear thoughts on the subject.
So, I am really just wondering if I am alone in feeling this way and also is this what I could expect from aromatics as well?
Also, you may be wondering what I have smoked with black cav in… When I first picked up a pipe my local tobacconist gave me straight sweetened black cav and told me its the best place to start. This may be true for some and I appreciate his opinion and knowledge but I absolutely hated it. I have since tried adding it to other blends to experiment and even the smallest amount makes me feel almost hungover the next day.
Thanks in advance for any input from you fine folk.
Glad I am not the only one. I avoid it completely now. I don’t really like the experience of any sweetened tobacco that I have come across. Didn’t take much to decide I’m better off sticking with burley forward blends.I feel crappy just hearing the words "sweetened black cavendish."
You'd probably be fine with Rattrays Marlin Flake or Germain Gold Flake, which are sugared up a bit.Glad I am not the only one. I avoid it completely now.
