Do the different blends really have maple or cherry and all the other blends in them. I am smoking the Sutiff Vanilla Royale. It has great flavor but it does not have a vanilla taste to it. It could be just my taste buds

As I had posted, earlier this year, I love peaches and have been chasing a peach aro that delivers. I finally found Sutliff's Peach Cobbler. It's a great creamy, buttery and even peachy smoke.
Very cool, mild and flavorful with no tongue bite.
Have also found a Caramel Apple that is excellent as well.
For me, when smoking an aro, the main thing I'm looking or is something mellow and not harsh, like Haunted Bookshop, that smokes cool and is flavorful.
As motie stated, often times they do not taste like the cherry, berry, vanilla or whatever they're supposed to be, but can still be enjoyable all the same.
Welcome to the forum and enjoy.

If you haven't tried it yet, you owe it to yourself to smoke a bowl or 12 of Molto Dolce. Creamy, Vanilla-y, smooth and enjoyable.
Agree with @motie2 and @Bonanzadriver When I smoke and aro, I'm looking for the aroma of the "flavor" being specified. The literal flavor of, let's say, cherry, I have yet to find. But a good cherry blend should give me the aroma, or room note, of cherry.
In a way I'm glad the actual flavor of aro blends aren't there for me. If it was, I would probably go on a "smoke diet" and die a slow death...
Think of it this way: I really like Chinese food, but I don't want it every day.... and there are other foods I like even more.... and some I have not tried that I might really like..... That's pipe smoking. I am, unfortunately, the exception that proves the rule: I only smoke one blend. For much of 2017 I only smoked Barbados Plantation. Then, a brother pipe smoker waxed rhapsodic about Sutliff Sunset Rum. Now, I only smoke a 50/50 blend of Barbados Plantation and Sunset Rum.
