romman-blakberry

I have been on a comparison kick recently.  Lots of flavors are adopted by different companies and each one is different.  This is because of different ingredients used and different blenders have different concepts of what a particular flavor tastes like.  Romman blackberry is a perfect example of this.

I am a stickler for accurate flavors and Romman blackberry is far from it  That’s not to say that it’s not flavorful and tasty but it’s not a blackberry.  This tobacco has fruity character and is somewhat floral actually.  The floral notes are pleasant but come with a slightly soapy taste.  It’s not overbearing and it has never made me stop smoking but it’s there.  I can see this really putting someone off.  I have heard lots of people complain about this flavor being chemical and really hating it.  I don’t think that badly of it but I can understand.  The most interesting part was the floral notes.  It’s in the lingering after taste and resembles rose a bit.

6.5 out of 10.  I knocked a point off for inaccurate flavor profile, one and a half for the soapy and chemical flavor and one for the price.  It’s a pleasant enough flavor just don’t expect it to resemble blackberry much.  The flavor is a little similar to an artificial blackberry flavored vodka.  A little candy like and a bit chemical.  Not really blackberry.  The floral notes were surprising but somewhat pleasant.

U most be highly mistaken,this is one of the best flavored tobaccos out there for hookah smoking, I have four hookah, at a party of about thirty hookah smokers this flavor was the hit of the party this was b for the alcohol even got there,right now I I’m still asked what flavor was that out of the four hookah that where burning, I have done all kinds of things to get different taste and flavors out of hookah tobacco and out of every flavor I have trade this one is tops,better then most of the Starbuzz and Social Smoke, the only one that’s would match it in the Starbuzz category is the Blue MIST.
