7 Seas Red is a smooth smoking blend made from superb and sweet flue-cured tobacco, nutty Burley and a bit of toasted Cavendish. It’s finished with a specially formulated cherry dressing that comes through mellow and tasty with an outstanding aroma. The perfect pipe tobacco anytime of the day. Make sure you add Mac Baren's 7 Seas Red to your lineup.
Best cherry of all the cherries I’ve had which are quite a few. My wife also likes the smell of this one has a great room note. But smoke it slow it will be better.

I have smoked my way
Mar 16, 2023
I have smoked my way through several tins of Mac Baren Seven Seas Red. I really enjoy it and decided to buy a pound in bulk form. The package arrived in a timely manner. The package itself was a heavy plastic bag and very well sealed. When I opened the package I was pretty shocked at the lack of aroma I had grown accustomed to from buying the tins. I will smoke it and enjoy it, I was juat a little disappointed at the seeming lack if aroma and flavor.

First of all I actually found Seven Seas Black a very good tasting blend of pipe tobacco and seven seas red will be a good blend to smoke and it is more affordable than any other tobacco I've smoked and this is a good blend to smoke daily and I can say if you try this you will want to keep buying more of this to smoke!

Jan 27, 2022
My trek for the perfect cherry has become a walk through utopia, there is no perfect cherry, they are all varying degrees of great!
with proper cadence it won't bite, the blended cavendish plays sweet on the pallet. when you open the jar it presents itself with a playfully strong maraschino scent that also plays to the room note. (i get away with smoking this one inside!) :P

This is a good tobacco but can be a bit bitey if you aren't careful. It has a potent hit of cherry when first lit that tapers off to an enjoyable level. A good smoke.

Pretty okay.
Oct 24, 2021
I ordered the Mac Baren seven seas sampler, and got a full set of 3.5 Oz tins.
That said. Didn’t truly enjoy any of them, aside from this one, on its own.
While all the others needed some spicing tobacco, to actually make them more than palatable, this was standalone, pretty good.
A lovey hearty cherry, almost like a fresh baked cherry pie, on opening. Smokes fairly well, tends to hold too much moisture I feel.
All in all, pretty good. Best of the Mac Baren I’ve had to date.

Absolutely amazing! From the second I opened the tin I was in love with this tobacco! The smell reminds me of a cereal I used to eat when I was a child and I'm 53 years young. When it came to the taste, I was equally amazed. I smoked this one an hour before I went to bed and the lovely aftertaste was still there when I fell asleep. And the icing on the cake is the fact that my wife loves the room note! I guarantee I will be back for more!

Oct 15, 2018
7 Seas Red is one of my top 3 tobaccos. It's mild, nice flavor, the topping is not overdone and it doesn't have that chemical taste I've experienced from some blends (ugh!). One subject I feel must be mentioned. My experience has been that the tins are actually quite better than buying this in bulk. The bulk didn't taste like the tin. I will buy this in tin only from now on. From the tin, to me, it's great. Everyone has their own tastes in pipe tobacco, so if you like mild aromatics, give it a try. For some, I'm sure, it will end up being in their top 3 as well.

Too soon, I haven't smoked it yet. Purchased a 5 tin sampler of this brand. Have only tried 2 of them thus far. Didn't get all 5, the Royal blend was substituted for a Dunhill tin. I know Dunhill is a reputable brand but it wasn't what I ordered.

Expected more cherry
Apr 24, 2018
From a newbie that's an occasional cigar smoker (flavored & not) I wanted to try some aromatic pipe blends. Bought this one based upon the reviews but, I have a hard time picking up on the cherry flavor. I suppose I like a stronger flavor than those who give the strong cherry blends a poor rating. Probably try a different cherry flavor next time.

I'm still pretty new to the game, but...
Mar 05, 2018
I'm still fairly new to pipe smoking, so I can't fully say that this is valid in the world of experienced smokers, but it is honest. I bought this in the 7 Seas sampler to try a little variety. Smelled decent in the tin but was a bit soggy. I tried to dry it out a bit, but it still was smoking hot, and if I didn't keep my quick cadence it would go out on me frequently.I did mix it with some Captain Black original i had around, and it seemed to round it out a bit.
I may still be in my amateur hour, but that's my two cents.

An excellent addition to my rotation
Nov 02, 2017
I am a huge Cherry fan. So much so that I need a break from my usual Cherry Ambrosia. When I read the description I read that this new MacBaren Line was made for the American palate I was a bit offended. I was also intrigued enough to give it a try. I love it. Very balanced blend on the tongue, not overtly top dressed it seemingly has no tongue bite regardless of how hard I puff. Burns at a medium rate, smoke note is slightly sweet and light. Score .

Only fruity tobacco I like
Sep 19, 2017
I've tried a number of fruity tobaccos and haven't liked a single one. I was hesitant to try this, but after enjoying all the other 7 Seas blends (all 5 stars), I decided to give this a try. It is surprisingly enjoyable, but not to the same extent as the other 7 Seas.

11th Cav Blackhorse
Feb 23, 2017
Bought this in my last order. No tongue bite, is a light smoke with suttle cherry, or rather to my taste buds very subtle cherry. Wife and son says it smells ok, they don't look overwelmed with excitment as with some of the other tobaccos i've smoked around them. Of all the tobaccos I bought from last order this is by far the hottest burning tobacco. Have gurgling in pipe, sipping on it and not puffing away. Just replaced my filter before this bowl, and it has to be changed already due to too much moister. Down to a quarter of a bowl now and finally tasting the cherry. I won't say I don't reccommend it, but it's not for me. I will continue my search on this flavor and not place this one into my rotation after I finish what I have already bought. Scouts Out

Good tin note, acts like most aromatics, it will get hot and give you some tongue bite if you keep puffing like an old train from back in the gold rush. Relax, slow down and enjoy the actual art of the pipe and your tobacco. Good addition to any rotation for the price.

An OK Cherry-flavored pipe tobacco
Oct 16, 2016
Not terrible but not to my liking. Natural cherry taste unlike the goopy, chemical taste of so many OTC brands. The cherry topping overwhelms the taste of the tobacco but it burns well once lit and yields a lot of smoke. Strictly one-dimensional with no complexity whatever. Lane 1-Q and Scotty's Butternut Burley is a much more satisfying smoke for me when I have a sweet tooth.

This is the only cherry blend I've ever tried, but I think there is no need to look further. I really like the way it smokes, especially in my cherry wood pipe. The cherry topping is the perfect amount. Al the natural characteristics of the tobacco's come through beautifully, and that tangy cherry note dances on the palate gently, without overpowering!

Not a sour Cherry
May 11, 2016
I wanted to try a Cherry Aro and decided to start with 7 seas Red. I would consider this an OK cherry blend. I don't have much experience with Cherry blends but from what I have read this one is better than most. I didn't really experience tongue bite at all unless I really heated up the bowl. The Cherry flavor was there while faint it doesn't over power and is not goopy. The room note isn't very Cherry at all, at least that is what I was told. Not bad I would recommend but I am also going to try others.

This one has a huge amazing smell of fresh wild cherries when you open it, which I did several times. However, it did not taste nearly as strong of cherries. It smoked smooth with the taste of a really good tobacco with a hint of cherry on the lips and no bite on the tongue. Definitely a smoke worth coming back to.

This is one of my favorite cherry tobacco. Also like McClelland M27 Three Cherries.
DW of Urbana, IL
Yes they were right as advertised and the price is right too. I love cherry flavor and this one has it, right down to the bottom.The difference between 7 seas and cult is different type cherry flavor. I love them both.Don't care if it's a briar or cob they both deliver flavor.I smoke these two and switch over to Hazelnut by lane for a change. Haven't smoked a cigarette in 6 months,feel better no cough.Wish I started enjoying a good pipe tabacco and pipe years ago. If your a cherry lover like me all I can say is 7 seas and cult, try it you will LOVE IT!
JM of Iron Station, NC
Have to thank MS for his review or I'd never have given this one a try. I hadn't smoked a "cherry" tobacco in at least 35 years because they all seemed the same: hot burning, too sweet and sticky. This tobacco is just like MS says; it is a great burning tobacco that has a wild cherry taste but also doesn't loose the tobacco flavor either. I could easily see this becoming someone's favorite and will definitely be added to my regular rotation. Thanks again MS!
JH of Crossville, TN
Love this blend. The sweetness along with the room note make it a very pleasant smoke with little to no tongue bite to speak of. Sure to be my go to smoke for a while to come.
BW of New Caney, TX
7 Seas Red is becoming my favorite all day smoke. Wonderful subtle aroma, both in the tin, and when lighted up, great burning quality, pleasant every time!
AB of Maitland, FL
Excellent cherry aroma. Does not burn the tongue. Medium strength.
SY of Springdale, AR
Fantastic smoke. This is a blend that you can smoke like a freight train without getting bite or too hot, or you can enjoy it by sipping it throughout an hour or two. Haven't had a bowl that didn't burn all the way to the bottom without relight. If you enjoy cherry taste without having a sticky cavendish get this! Not so much a sweet cherry, but more of a wild or straight cherry. Wonderful blend that you can smoke all day long.
MS of Jonesborough, TN
Bought this a few weeks ago and was very eager to try it out. Most cherry aromatics are too sweet and sticky for me, but this is one of the best cherry blends that I've ever had. It is more of a wild cherry, so it smells a bit sharp and tart. The taste is very subtle at first, but gets stronger towards the end of the bowl. By the time I finished the bowl I was ready to light another up. Great aftertaste, burns well, stays lit. Will definitely be keeping this in my usual rotation.
