Upon lighting you are greeted with a sweet fruity and floral note very similar to Erinmore. It does smell nice and yes, it reminds me of the ‘pineapple’ note of Erinmore of old, which I do remember, even more than its current version, though neither seems to be exactly the same. Sort of vanilla-cream like with some fruity notes. Tin note is quite intense, a mélange of fruity aromas, vanilla and tobacco. If I am not mistaken Rattray’s (that is Kohlhase & Kopp) has retained the original Murray’s recipe, but not the name of Erinmore, which was taken by McBaren, and Malcolm Flake seems to be essentially Erinmore Flake under a new name.Ĭomes in 15 neatly cut flakes of medium thickness which need some drying but they do rub out very easily. Pipe Used: Peterson Around The World France To be fair, this isn't my favourite flake but I give this four stars not three due to the fact I feel it has been accomplished very well! The pineapple comes through well in the room-note, turning the room into a tropical paradise!
Nicotine is at a medium level but if you like a good hit of "N" the smoke can be inhaled easily.
Often as not many aromatics can be a bit zealous with bite but Malc' is mitigating in that department even when strained. The tobacco tastes are pleasantly balanced but with a topping of this weight it can become a little problematic to decipher the different tobaccos, sometimes it's better to just sit back, stop over-evaluating and enjoy the taste! On that note it actually conjures up the thought of sitting on a tropical beach! Actually, to embellish the tropical feeling the pineapple flavour can be greatly increased by simply retro-haling the smoke. The burn is good, giving off a medium temperature smoke with a light grey ash. The pineapple is without doubt the leader in this game but it comes through a bit more prolific than it was in the aroma. The flavour is reflective of the initial aroma. The moisture is great, it can be imminently rubbed and smoked, no extra time to dry is needed. The smell from the mix has a fairly subtle pineapple twang to it, a definite addition albeit not particularly harsh. Excited to try this one as to be fair pineapple is a less common additive in aromatics.
