Mac Baren Classics Cherry Ambrosia

one of the finest Tobacco s on the market,i used to like Captain Black,i still do,but to be honest "Mac Baren,cherry Ambrosia,and Black Ambrosia" are my favorites!!Can everybody Dig!!bob

Enjoyed the flavor and aroma. It was a smooth smoke. I will probably reorder. I've tried several different Mac Baren tobaccos and enjoyed them all.

I’ve always been partial to the automatic blends. I started pipe smoking in the 60s and have tried almost every cherry blend that has come on the market. So far Mac Baren’s Ambrosia is my favorite. I keep two pipes explicitly for my cherry blend enjoyment.

Of all the cherry tobacco's I have tried this one provides the coolest (it doesn't burn hot) smoke I had. Additionally the flavor was second to none. The after burn aroma borders on incense and an incredible aroma left behind.

Thought it could have been better considering the other Mac Baren tobaccos.

Love this stuff..

Awesome blend - only 4 star because of personal preference - very balanced flavor profile cherry flavor is not dominating but plays well with the tobaccos - the smoke is smooth and the nic hit is mild to low - as far as tin not it smells amazing, the room note smells (says my wife) good and is acceptable to smoke in house - so that a a big win - if you have never had this one it's worth the buy

great tobacco my girlfriend loves it when i smoke this one she loves the smell

Flavor was nice, a bit of a rough cut and harsh at times. The smell was nice. Overall not a bad quality smoke.

This is great tobacco. Smooth and mild with a sweet aroma. It will be a regular choice for me.

The name says it all ! One of my very favorite blends

This one is definitely unique among cherry blends. Cherry with hints of rum and a wonderful room note. Let it dry a bit before lighting up, otherwise you'll go through some matches. It does get a bit warmer than other blends, but this isn't a deal breaker by any means. It can also bite a bit, but again, not a deal breaker. Overall, this is a great tobacco for your rotation.

I am not really into describing the break down of a pipe tobacco so I will just go with a nice cherry tobacco with a slight kick to it.

It smelled better then it tastes also it was on the throat hitting side but not the worst thing I've smoked

I enjoyed the Mac Baren cherry ambrosia. Care must be taken to smoke it slow or it will bite. Room note is pleasing without being overpowering. I found that mixing in 1/3 Mac Baren vanilla cream reduces the chance of bite. It also adds an interesting taste and aroma. Try it, you won’t be disappointed.

I enjoy Mac Baren Cherry Ambrosia and I have smoked it for 5 years

A very pleasant smoke! Nice room note and mild taste. A good smoke for the beginner pipe smoker with a taste of the better blends.

This tobacco provides a nice mellow and mild cherry flavored smoke. The room note seems pleasant since the wife doesn’t seem to mind. After a nice long smoke I still walk away with a nice nicotine buzz. If you’re used to stronger smokes this may be a little to weak. I’ll take this over captain black cherry any day.

...Very Mild Cherry flavor, Much Refined, Eloquent expression of this blending...

Just got this one. Had a couple of passers by thinking I was making cherry brownies. Easy smoke and has a nice lingering room note.

This is exactly what I wanted perfect aroma balanced blend. The residual aro is pleasant as it drifts off. I've been wanting something like this and I'm glad I've found Mac Baren Cherry

I first tried this in Europe, where you can't put fruit in the product name so kids won't think it's candy, so they call it "Red Ambrosia." It was also one of my first aromatics. The only problem with it is that when you try the best first, everything else has a hard time competing with it. In general, I think the Mac Baren tobacs are very high quality, sophisticated blends, but they need to be smoked slowly or they'll bite. This is a prime example. The cherry and rum are nicely balanced, but subtle rather than a flavor burst. If you are a novice, you may seek something more obvious... but just know that this one will keep calling you back again and again. You won't find yourself mixing in black Cavendish or something to balance it out. It's pretty much perfect right out of the gate. Go slow, and enjoy.

Excellent

My favorite aro so far, smoked it up fast and the wife loved the smell

Two 3.5 tins of Mac baren cherry ambrosia 5 oz of Latakia blending. Nuff said. Try it. Smokey and sweet. Low nicotine. All i smoke now.

I am a beginner smoker, having picked it up three months ago. After putting a dozen different tobacco products under my belt without much difficulty, this is the first time I've been frustrated. This is no doubt due to my lack of experience, but my time with this product has been very hit or miss. When it's good it' good: the flavor is delicious and pleasing, with the tobacco itself having a wonderful aroma that just calls you to smoke it. When it's bad, it's a tiresome chore. The tobacco is finicky and is just as likely to turn my pipe into a furnace as it is to go colder than a dead fireplace at midnight. If I'm not extremely careful with my draw (not even the breath method has proved consistent) the tobacco will go nuclear and nothing but the taste of burnt tobacco will come through without hope of recovery, unless I just put the pipe down and come back to it at a later time. On some level, I appreciate this tobacco, because it has shown me that I have a lot to learn. However, it is not for this beginner. Perhaps I could master it in time, but when a smoke is this unforgiving it becomes too tedious to use as a teachable experience. I do not want to give this less than four stars, because, though it could very well be that the product wuality is poor, I suspect it has more to do with my ability. This is not a beginner's smoke, at least not for this beginner. I look forward to returning to this product in time once I've had a few more months to improve. PS other Mac Baren products are, in fact, beginner friendly, but not this one.

I purchased this tobacco to try out other varieties of the Mac Baren product line. I smoked a few pipes of it from start to finish. Here my verdict: It is a mild tobacco, burns evenly and has a nice fruity aroma and appears to be very easy on the tongue. However, I was expecting a bit more cherry flavor - the #1 reason why I wanted to sample it. Another shortfall: this tobacco leaves an undefined aftertaste in my mouth, but only during the beginning of the smoke. Overall it is a good tobacco to start the day with, but it falls well short of being 5 star rated tobacco.

i wood but it a again ,in time , love the cherry it is the best

This is an amazing smoke, plan on always having it on hand. Not very wet smoke at all, no bite once so ever. Smells great and the wife doesn't mind the smoke.

Smooth, aromatic, and delightful to smoke. Will purchase again. Thanks.

Subtle and lasting hint of cherry. Does not burn the tong as many other flavored tobacco do. Strongly recommend .

Not as flavorful as I thought, but still a fine tobacco.

I am not an expert, but of all of the brands and styles that I have tried (and they are many) I'm staying with this one. Incredibly aromatic tobacco. Its smell is so nice that my wife lets me smoke inside the house

I really enjoyed this blend. Has a distinct cherry flavor mixed with others that compliment the flavor. I could still taste the cherry flavor an hour after I finished my pipe.

I found the tobacco to be mild to the taste and mellow to the aroma left after smoking it. I just started smoking again after quiting for fifteen years and was hoping to start up again with the old Ambrosia blend I had smoked before. The Ambrosia blend that I came to enjoy was a house blend of a tobacco shop that made their own blend and because they can't get all the same tobacco's to make their signature blend I have been hunting for another company and this is very close to it just lacking in the taste and aroma that I came to love before. I will keep buying this cherry Ambrosia blend in bulk until I find the one that best matches my favorite. I do recommend this blend to anyone looking for a mild smoke to enjoy all day.

I like all MacBarens products and have used them for years. Fine tabac, fine blended, aromatic and smooth

Fast Delivery

Tried all cherry blends available and Mac Baren got it right. Subtle yet noticable flavors with just enough chunks of "cake" to balance the sweets with spice. Now a staple to my rotation.

I thought it was really good, had a great taste thru the whole bowl. Next order I'm getting another can. It sure beats the Plumcake.

An awesome tobacco. A slight cherry flavor that doesn't overdo it. Burns well, packs nicely. Good for aromatic and non-aromatic lovers alike. Another quality product from Mac Baren.

Good smoke, mild- mid. would buy more.

Hands Down THE BEST CHERRY Made. IF I don't have any I'm RYO.

great taste,a little harsh

Good smoking. Like it.

great tobacco

A very good aromatic tobacco. Could use just a "smidge" more of the cherry.

This is my first higher end tobacco. Been a Captain Black Cherry guy for a long time. I opened the tin and was greeted with a smell of plum pie. It's wonderful smelling and not the sickeningly sweet smell of Capt. Black. I can't wait to try other Mac Baren tobaccos.

This is one of the few cherry blends that hits it just right for me. It is flavorful with a nice cherry aroma and taste but without the harsh cherry that comes across in other blends I've tried. I actually like it better than the Mac Baren Seven Seas Red Blend. Definitely worth a try if you enjoy cherry mixtures.

Don't expect candy flavored tobacco here, but this is one of my favorites from Mac Barens. Good room note, easy smoke with good taste.

Deserved it!

In my opinion you will never find an aromatic that tastes as strongly as you would hope, but cherry ambrosia is considered by manny to have a good cherry taste. not too sure on the "room note" but fun to try out.
