Matching the flavor of a Springwater

[moonlight]

When I was a smoker, I'd treat myself (when I could find them) to a pack of Springwater cigarettes from Germany.

They were made with a sweet-ish blend of tobacco and this heavenly vanilla-scented pipe tobacco.

Is anyone familiar with this cigarette?

I'd like to try to match it with Vanilla bean and one of the tobaccos, but I'm not sure which to try first. Any suggestions?

If I could have that wonderful taste again, there'd truly then be NOTHING I miss about smoking!

never tried those cigs, but as a guess based on your information, I would say Virginia + vanilla bean would make a nice mix. Virginia is a mellow and slightly sweet tobacco, and alternatively, Backo is a bolder tobacco flavor with a hint of sweetness. Although RY4 kind of sounds like what you are describing as well, as it is basically a sweet tobacco vanilla flavor. If you haven't tried that, Don should have more in a couple weeks.

That sounds good, I'll give that a try on my next order...Virginia and Vanilla. Definitely the RY4 if I ever get the chance
