What is in it?
This is an aromatic blend with cherry flavor
Burley: There is Burley in this blend, although you may struggle to notice it.
Virginia: The Virginia seems to be the main component.  
Cavendish: You will find quite a bit of black Cavendish present.
 
What does it smoke like?
Blood Red Moon is a full aromatic pipe tobacco.  The taste of the tobacco is not entirely overwhelmed by the topping, but rather combines into one flavor.  I taste very sweet cherry, and dark chocolate.  The flavor is similar to eating a cherry cordial, but there is a bread like toasty taste that has to be the Burley and Virginia.  For a full aromatic, I noticed no tongue bite.  The tobacco left no dottle, but there was some moisture in the bowl.  The next bowl of whatever you have in the same pipe may have a ghost of cherry flavor.
 
How to prepare it?
Aromatic pipe tobacco is very sensitive to preparation.  Take one bowl's worth out of the tin and let it dry in the air for at least half an hour.  When the tobacco is no longer moist/sticky you are ready to pack.  Use a light hand while packing the bowl.  A two step pack is better than a three step pack for this blend.  If it won't stay lit, use a tamper to tighten the pack a bit.  Don't smash it in since it is very difficult to loosen the tobacco again.  You should have no trouble drawing air thru the pipe.  Smoke with a controlled, slow cadence for maximum flavor.

    Delicious

    This is a fantastic aromatic - the cherry is dark and deep, not cloying and overwhelming. Packs and burns beautifully right out of the tin, and I’ve gotten more compliments on the room note than anything else I’ve ever smoked. Highly recommend, unless you hate aros or cherry.

    Fantastic blend. Cherry is deep and sweet, but not too sweet - it’s “cherry,” not “CHERRY!” I’ve gotten more compliments on the room note of this than any other blend I’ve smoked. While not an “all-day” pipe for me, it’s wonderful after dinner or with a good cup of coffee.

    Tastes Artificial

    Posted by SM on 12th Dec 2019

    The flavor of this blend is good until the aftertaste, it leaves a distinctly artificial, chemical flavor in my mouth. Not a bad blend, but I can't enjoy it when it leaves such an unpleasant flavor.

    It came at good moisture, the initial light was good and it stayed lit pretty well, needing only 1-2 relights as it got toward the bottom of the bowl.

    Not a bad blend by any means, but it's not for me.

    Hype well deserved

    The pleasant sweetness hits you in the face with this one. The best dessert aromatic I've tried. While the experience is a luxury level smoke, flavor, and room note compared to cheaper cherry-flavored blends, I do get a slight after taste of medicinal cherry Nyquil. However, it's still a very bright and tasty occasional blend to please a sweet tooth.

    Smooth

    Posted by Boastboy on 14th Aug 2019

    Firstly, I'm writing this as a very, very, new smoker. This was one of two tobaccos that Ben suggested and I have been over of the moon (punny!) happy with this blend. It is incredibly smooth and I will definitely be purchasing it again. At the moment it's my go-to morning smoke because of the smoothness. The cherry comes through nicely, the cherry is more maraschino than sweet along with dark chocolate and orange and it's so good.

    Blood red moon

    This is my perspective and opinion and I know everybody tastes are different.....
    The packaging and tobacco are all quality. My issue was with the cherry chapstick flavor/aroma. It wasn't what I expected from the way it was described, in fact, I found it to be the cheapest part of the product.
