Aroma:
Upon opening the pack, I was not particularly impressed by the scent. It had a sour undertone with some berry-like notes, but overall, it did not have a strong or enticing aroma. However, there was also a strong presence of herbaceous notes, which was somewhat off-putting.
Flavor Profile:
Unfortunately, when it came to the flavor, fell short of my expectations. The taste was overwhelmingly herbal and strong, lacking the distinct currant flavor that the company had advertised. In my opinion, the tobacco failed to deliver enough flavor. The acidity and herbaceousness were noticeable, and the overall taste was repulsive. While I acknowledge that there may be individuals who enjoy this particular flavor, I personally do not recommend it, especially when smoked on its own.
Mixing Potential:
The only redeeming quality I found was some potential for mixing. When blended with other flavors, it can be used to strengthen the base. I would suggest using it in mixes at a maximum of 15% to avoid ruining the whole session.
Smoke Quality and Heat Resistance:
In terms of smoke quality, Darkside Redberry did not stand out. The flavor lacked the desired richness, and the tobacco itself had a strong, toasted aroma that was not particularly pleasant. Additionally, I found it to be stronger in terms of nicotine content compared to other Darkside flavors I have tried.
Taste Profile:
To summarize, Darkside Redberry did not live up to its name or the manufacturer's claims. The flavor was predominantly herbal and lacked the distinctive taste of red currants. I would describe it as unpleasant when smoked on its own.
Conclusion:
In conclusion, Darkside Redberry falls short of expectations. The aroma from the pack hinted at the promised sourness and berry-like notes, but the taste failed to deliver the desired flavor profile. While I struggle to find some use for the tobacco, I may consider its potential for mixing with other flavors. However, I would not recommend it for solo smoking. The tobacco's strong and repulsive taste, coupled with its lack of resemblance to red currants, make it a disappointing choice. Smoking this tobacco gave me a very unsatisfactory experience, and I would not advise anyone to try it.

Aroma:
Upon opening the package, I was greeted by a pleasant aroma. The scent was moderately sweet, with hints of citrus notes. It didn't overpower the senses or hit the throat harshly, which was a positive start.
Flavor Profile:
When it comes to the flavor profile, Must Have Lemon-Lime leans more towards the lime side rather than the lemon. The lime flavor is more prominent and brings a pleasant tartness to the mix. However, I felt that the citrus taste was a bit too bright, and I expected a stronger sourness that didn't quite come through.
Mixing Potential:
Must Have Lemon-Lime shines when it comes to mixing potential. It opens up better when blended with other flavors, offering a delightful addition to almost any mix. I found that it worked great in creating sweet and sour combinations, adding a slightly sour and tart element to the mixes. However, when smoked solo, it tended to be a little dry and didn't deliver the same impact as when mixed.
Smoke Quality and Heat Resistance:
In terms of smoke quality, Must Have Lemon-Lime provided a smooth and enjoyable smoking experience. The tobacco didn't produce harsh or rough smoke, making it quite easy to smoke. However, it's worth noting that it "dries" a lot when smoked on its own, so it's better suited for mixing rather than being smoked solo.
Taste Profile:
The taste profile of Must Have Lemon-Lime is a combination of sweet and sour. The lime takes a more prominent role, while the sweetness balances out the citrus notes.
Conclusion:
The lime flavor shines more than the lemon. It works exceptionally well in mixes, adding a sour and tangy twist to various combinations. However, when smoked alone, the flavor tends to be “dry”.

Aroma:
Upon opening the box, I was greeted by a fine-cut tobacco with a noticeable aroma. The scent was strong, with hints of mint accompanying the mango fragrance. Although the aroma was appealing, I noticed the presence of twigs and larger leaves in the can.
Flavor Profile:
The flavor profile of Mango Lemonade is an interesting combination of mango, lemon, and a subtle touch of mint. Initially, the mango takes the spotlight, delivering a strong and smooth taste. However, I found that the lemonade aspect of the flavor was a bit muted, and the mint played a more subtle role in the background. As the session progressed and the tobacco warmed up, the lemon flavor evolved, blending better with the mango and creating a more pleasant mango lemonade taste.
Smoke Quality and Heat Resistance:
The smoke quality of this tobacco was smooth and fresh, without any harshness. The mango flavor remained consistent throughout the session, while the lemonade element provided a refreshing and energizing touch. Heat management was key to maximizing the flavor experience, and I recommend fluff packing the tobacco approximately 1-2 mm below the rim of the bowl when using a heat management device.
Taste Profile:
The mango flavor is dominant, with the lemon notes coming in towards the finish. The mint, although present, remains relatively subdued but provides a coolness to the overall flavor. As the tobacco heats up, the mango lemonade combination becomes more pronounced. With a stronger lemon presence the lemonade element impacts imparts a perfectly sharp and refreshing sensation while complementing the mango notes.
Conclusion:
A unique blend of flavors, combining ripe mango with the sweetness of lemonade. While the mango flavor shines throughout the session and the lemonade adds a refreshing touch, I personally felt that mango pairs better with other flavors. The inclusion of mint, albeit subtle, slightly enhances the overall coolness of the profile. The tobacco itself is of good quality, with a fine cut and minimal stems. However, it's worth noting that the nicotine content is relatively low, resulting in a mild experience.

Delivers a creamy and slightly sweet taste, reminiscent of straight oatmeal. On the inhale, the flavor is notably creamy, coating the palate with its rich texture. Subtle hints of berries emerge on the exhale, adding a delicate fruity dimension to the overall profile.

Aroma:
The aroma is captivating, showcasing a pronounced and intense rose fragrance. The floral notes are complemented by a subtle spiciness, creating an enticing olfactory experience.
Flavor Profile:
A remarkable flavor profile that combines the sweetness of roses with the distinct taste of the dark base tobacco. The blend strikes a delicate balance between the intense rose aroma and the earthy, spicy undertones. Additionally, when subjected to increased heat, a subtle cigar aroma can be detected, adding further complexity to the blend. The slightly higher nicotine content enhances the authenticity and contributes to an enjoyable smoking experience.
Mixing Potential:
The intricate combination of the rose aroma and the dark base tobacco can be enjoyed on its own, as it offers a distinct and harmonious flavor experience. However, it also presents an excellent opportunity for mixing for a more oriental approach. I have found success by incorporating BLACK ROSE at 30% or less in my mixes. It blends particularly well with mints, lemons, berries, and tobaccos that have a cooling effect, such as DS-Supernova. It adds depth and complexity to the overall flavor profile, creating a truly delightful and refreshing smoking experience.
Smoke Quality and Heat Resistance:
Thanks to its fine cut and well-absorbed molasses exhibits great smoke quality. The tobacco's moisture content is balanced. It performs admirably in terms of heat resistance, allowing for a consistent and enjoyable session. During the initial 70-80 minutes of smoking, BLACK ROSE captivates with its excellent rose aroma and subtly spicy tobacco undertones and the blend maintains its quality throughout this duration.
Taste Profile:
When smoking BLACK ROSE, the taste is characterized by an exquisite and intense rose flavor. The floral notes dominate, accompanied by the earthy and spicy essence of the base tobacco. The blend's authenticity shines through, providing a rich and satisfying taste experience. Additionally, adding a touch of mint enhances the overall profile, offering a refreshing twist to the floral character.
Conclusion:
In conclusion, is a top-tier rose tobacco blend that stands out as the best spicy floral option in the market. A harmonious combination of intense rose aroma and the distinct taste of the dark base tobacco. May not appeal to everyone, but it presents an intriguing option for Dark Blend fans seeking a floral twist.
