Sutliff Private Stock Barbados Plantation is a smooth aromatic blend made of sweet, bright Virginias, earthy white Burleys and Sutliff's signature black Cavendish. It's finished with the enticing flavor of tangy Barbados rum. The flavor is nicely sweet and the aroma in truly amazing. Get swept away to the tropics with Barbados Plantation.
Nice flavor. A bit wet this time around but can be managed. Price is a bit steep but thats most anything these days.

A surprisingly good smoke!! I’m impressed.
Aug 28, 2023
I purchased a 1.5 oz tin on the advice of an online pipe smoker acquaintance from Greece. He said it was really good. I ordered it right away and it was just delivered. I didn’t know what to expect, but I rushed out to smoke a bowl and IT IS VERY GOOD!! It is a ribbon cut that easily starts and stays lit. I don’t know if what I taste is rum, but it is very flavorful, on the sweeter side, with a very very good room note. I am really impressed. It has little to no bite and is easily an all day smoke. I easily see that I need to order more.
After 45 years of smoking pipes, I’ve long since given up ever finding that “one” tobacco that is what I smoke. But this is definitely in the rotation and I will order more to keep on hand.

Game Changer
May 04, 2023
This is fantastic tobacco ! I've found myself really loving Mc Baren tobacco's in the past, but this one has been a game changer. Extremely smooth with almost no bite and I get nothing but positive comments on the room note. I am looking forward to trying more Sutliff tobacco's.

For me, my favorite! It is perfect in every area...Exquisite Room & Tin Notes, Zero Tongue Bite, Smooth & Pure All Day Smoke. Nowhere near harsh, it is a delicate, moderately flavored, and deliciously tasting aromatic tobacco.

Super Good!
Oct 22, 2021
As a more aggressive smoker, I find that this blend smokes extra cool. I like to load it into a deep bowl of the meerschaum sort. Upon opening the tin, you can 10,000% catch the rum aroma. It's just like popping the top off a bottle of Meyer's and taking a big wiff; sweet, but not overly so. I will buy again for sure

I really like this blend. This is only my second rum blend to try so I don’t have anything to compare it to aside from Sutliff’s Sunset Rum which isn’t bad either, but I prefer the Barbados Plantation. It’s a VERY cool smoke. Smoked very light out of the can with little to no heat and no bite. I was constantly checking my pipe to make sure it still had embers the smoke was so light. Had much less of the liquor taste compared to Sunset and had a lot more of the rum spice and vanilla, but wasn’t overwhelming by any means. No bite whatsoever. Very good balanced blend.

As a new pipe smoker, the Barbados Plantation is very nice. Smooth and fragrant. I was expecting a tad more flavor to come through, however it stayed lit incredibly well. Very nice smoke on a sunny day.

Very good! Room note, tin note and flavor reminds me of butterscotch, which I love. This is my first aromatic as I normally like vapers, English and dark fired blends. But the sale price got me to give this a try. I guess I'll have to try some more quality aromatics more often.

Chocolate goodness
Sep 27, 2018
I'm a newbie to pipe smoking so I don't have a broad range of comparison. That being stated...I really like this blend. It has a smooth chocolaty flavor with a nice mellow rum undertone.
It is moist upon opening. The moistest of the 5 or so baccy's I've purchased to date. Therefore I had to relight it a few times but no biggie.
The room note is favorable. In fact my daughter even commented how good it smelled. This I know has got to be a good thing.
Enjoy!

Great tasting tobacco, especially if you have a good drink to compliment it. No tongue bite, smokes cool, but, you also have to know how to smoke cool, otherwise it could potentially bite, almost no after taste, pleasant smell, this is a new go to for me. Easy to love

This is a tobacco that I enjoy because of it's pleasant rum flavor. The flavor won't bowl you over, but it's there. Notes of vanilla and pineapple too. It's moist but burns well.

Another Excellent Blend From Sutliff
Dec 18, 2017
Barbados Plantation is another wonderful blend from the people at Sutliff. Yet just as I feel The bulk blend of Crème Brulee is quite similar to Molto Dolce I get a similar impression from Sutliff's bulk blend Buttered Rum and Barbados Plantation. Both Molto Dolce and Barbados Plantation have a slight edge over their bulk counterpart - but the non-discriminating palate on a budget might opt for the bulk version. Which ever way you go all four previously mentioned Sutliff blends are among the best aromatics around.

Barbados Plantation? It's the only one for me.
Sep 07, 2017
The only pipe tobacco I smoke. I've tried the widely praised Officer's Club and also the several Sutliff bulk rum blends and they just don't measure up. Great taste, wonderful room note, easy to keep lit, and no bite.
The perfect aromatic. When is it gonna be back in stock? It's been backordered for a while now.....

Dec 23, 2016
I am mostly an aromatic smoker. Many arid simply don't have much in the way of actual taste. Barbados Plantation does offer some taste and great room note. It is one of my go to smokes. It burns cool and requires little in the way of relights. The taste does remind me of rum and a bit of bananas. I have found aro smokers find different flavors from the same tobacco. A lot deals with individual taste not to mention what has been on your palate recently. I think you will find, if your an aromatic smoker that this blend is more flavorful than most out there.

I enjoy this blend. Not my favourite of all time, but still a good go-to. It's got a licorice/cocoa/coffee kind of note to it. I find myself smoking a bowl of this one when I have a full belly. It's like a calming dessert.

Its just Ok But Worth A try.
May 26, 2016
The main things that stood out with this blend was it stayed well lit for about an hours worth of smoking time. I had to lite it maybe twice.. The tobacco is a little moist out of the tin which provided a hotter than normal smoke. Out of the tin aroma is quite pleasant but not much of that was coming through by taste or scent while smoking which is a pity. And most of all, the tongue bite is "almost" non exsitant. Perhaps if it were a little drier that might completely go away and with the way it is now probably wouldnt be too upsetting for older advanced smokers. Would i buy it again ? Probably not.

Too wet and too topped
Apr 26, 2016
WAAY to wet out of the tin, and doesn't really seem to fully dry out as much as you need it to. It has a great room not and is of a quality cut that is easy to pack, so in those respects it might not be bad for a beginner. Smokes hot and wet, though, and favors heavy topping over natural flavors.

Pipe and cigar smoker for many years. Now just pipes and pipe tobacco and am I fortunate to have stumbled upon this wonderful blend. I just lit up a bowl full in a Rsndy Wiley and the tobacco is one of the best I've ever smoked in the last 50 years. I think even some non-aro smokers would like if not love Barbados Plantation.

Best tasting & smelling tobacco on Earth.

If you like aromatics it just doesn't get better than this. As moist as it is, it's very even burning. It fills the whole house with the scent of rum. This blend is wife-friendly! The flavor is out of this world, and this is just the perfect smoke after a long, hard day's work. I'd rate the burn quality equal to Ole Shenandoah barrel 76, and the sweet flavor is in a class of its own. World class!

I am new to pipe smoking and this was one of the first aromatics I picked up. It smoked cool, I didn't have any problem with mouth bite and the flavor was lovely. My fiance' also enjoyed the smoke since the smell was sweet and fragrant.
DM of Lancaster, PA
Coming from the owner of Moonshine Pipe Co, this is my FAVORITE BLEND. It smokes cool, doesn't bite, and has a mouth watering tin note of sweet rum. Buy this blend!
JL of Charlottesville, VA
Delicious, good room note, no bite, I recommend it. Loose flakes, but they pack well and burn evenly.
KB of York, PA
I have smoked many of the Sutliff Private Stock blends and all are very good smokes. Barbados Plantation is no exception! Right out of the can and into the pipe it had a good aroma. Lite it up, fine aroma,fine taste,and very satisfying to both nose and tounge. No burn or funky aftertaste, just a good smoke. Will most definitely put this one in my aromatic rotation. 4 out of 4 on this
JG of Summersville, KY
Definitely a very sweet aromatic.
Tin note is enchanting. Tobacco is very moist, I've had it setting out uncovered for 48 hours thus far and hasn't seemed to want to dry any.
As is, it is smoking dry though. Richness of flavor and a nice heavy smoke. Room note matches the tin note - very pleasing, almost delectable. Burns surprisingly cool for a blend that obviously has a lot of top dressing. No bite, with a nice clean aftertaste that lingers pleasantly. Silvery grey ash, burns right down to the bottom. Doesn't seem to over-heat, even when pushed a bit. Slower smoking definitely brings out more flavor though. True for most all blends - very true with this one.
I'm not a big smoker of aromatics, but, I'll probably keep this one around for those times I want something sweet.
Thus far, every Sutliff I have tried has been pleasing, some extremely pleasing. This one falls into the extremely pleasing, for an aromatic category. For the price and quality, it's 5 stars.
TS of Tulsa, OK
Bought some of this while on the road only to find it $3.00 cheaper here on P&C! Lesson learned: can't beat P&C prices!! The blend is very mild and pleasant with no bite and no harsh after taste. I expected the rum to make it taste a little stronger, but it is very mild. Burns nicely and stays lit. A new favorite for me, and I would highly recommend it to new pipe smokers looking for something mellow and mild.
TF of Lake Elsinore, CA
Received it in a Tobbaco of the Month Club box (highly recomend that service), this subtle and inoffensive smoke has just the right feel with a touch of spice and sweetness. It's become a staple smoke of mine. Nearly run down a tin and it's only the start of the next month! Well, luckily more good smokes are coming my way soon.
NW of Saint Petersburg, FL
I happened upon this one at cigar shop that had a selection of different Sutliff Private Stock tins. The tobacconist recommended the Barbados Plantation as mild, sweet smelling aromatic with no bite. He's wasn't wrong. It has become one of my favorites. It has a rich and smokey aroma, yet mild with a sweet rum finish. My wife loves the smell. And best of all... no bite.
DF of Miami, FL
So I was skeptical about this blend. I ordered it along with a Missouri Meerschaum Legend pipe and Savinelli 6mm balsa filters. Magic was born. I like truly sweet aromatic smokes and this didn't disappoint. Best part was the cob and filter combo eliminated all wetness and made my experience dry and oh-so-sweet.
JH of Poughkeepsie, NY
Barbados rum (Mt. Gay) and diet coke.... A staple for years. Now a surprisingly good rum flavored tobacco.
