A fine aromatic pipe tobacco comes with a light topping of natural flavorings. The topping or casing happens during the manufacturing process. Some of the most common toppings are chocolate, vanilla, cherry, rum, apple, liquor and the list continues. Most pipe smokers in US prefer Cavendish aka America style tobacco. Cavendish is a method of curing and cutting tobacco. It is not a tobacco but a kind of processing method that bring out the natural sweet taste in the tobacco. Aromatic tobaccos tend to be moister than non-aromatic varieties due to these flavorings. Depending on the amount of flavor casing in use, we can segregate a blend in this category again into semi-aromatic and lightly-aromatic.

Non-aromatic tobacco is a mixture that relies exclusively on the natural ingredients of the tobacco to derive its flavors and aroma. These are tobaccos that contain no flavor additives. Blends of this variety generally use flavorful traditional tobaccos such as Virginia pipe tobacco or oriental. Mixing non- aromatic tobaccos with other variety tobaccos such as Latakia is common and this adds spice and flavor depth. In earlier days additives were not allowed in tobaccos made in England. Hence these tobaccos were referred to as English tobacco blends even though non-aromatic tobaccos were manufactured all over the world. The most common English blend consists of Latakia, Virginia, and Perique.
