Milder than the blue, sweeter than the blue. Tobacco only here, and it's awesome. Above and beyond all expectations.
It's a great smoke and if you like Virginia's you'll love this.

Recently in the Sunday newsletter there was an article about try something a second time. That was my experience with Capstan Yellow. The first bowl full seemed a bit harsh, so it went on the shelf. Later, and with it dried a bit, I tried it with ... Read More
a different briar. I am glad I gave it a second try. The flavor is heavier bodied than HH Pure Virginia, but it is a satisfying and pleasant the second and subsequent times in the bowl. Definitely in my rotation with other Virginia's now. Read Less

I just got a good sample of this 5 year aged Virginia last week and it’s dang good stuff!!! Capstan Gold is basically a very good Virginia but the 5 years in the tin just sweetens the deal. Grab it while you can!!!

The Capstan yellow flake tastes much better. The ready rubbed version heats up quickly, you have to smoke very slowly. tongue bite. Better smoke the Flake

While I like the "blue" slightly more, this is also a 5 Star blend for the experienced pipe smoker. Burns clean with more high notes than the Blue." If you are an aromatic smoker (IE Frog Morton's Cellar), looking to cross over into Virginia's there ... Read More

Tin note of ketchup, mild stewed fruit, and spices. The tobacco is moist but dry enough to smoke. The orange-brown broken flakes rub out easily. Burns slow with a few extra relights. The strength is mild to medium and nic is mild to medium. Though li... Read More
sted with Fruit / Citrus flavoring, I couldn't discern it individually. Taste is medium and consistent, with complex notes of sweet hay, dry earth, tangy orange peel, stewed fruit, spicy, tart lemon grass, floral, very woody, a mildly sweet spiced bread background note, and a moderately peppery retro. Room note is pleasant, and aftertaste is great. Read Less

Tried this for the first time and was pleased. Had a hard time keeping lit, but it can also be from my packing technique still developing. The flavor was pretty good, had a nice scent to it too.

The taste is dominated by creamy caramel, but soft and without cloying. The amount of sweetness can easily be controlled by the rate of smoking and even at an average rate it will taste like good tobacco, and sugar will almost disappear from the tast... Read More
e. When smoking at the very edge of attenuation, all the delights of tobacco are revealed and even takes your breath away from pleasure. In the background is the taste of sweet white bread, but it is bread. Read Less

I really liked the flake of this blend and honestly did not think the ready rubbed would be as good....but I would happy buy this version, especially since I was lucky enough to get some of the 5 year aged tins that were being sold recently. That bei... Read More

Nice blend. Not too strong for a predominantly aromatic smoker.
Product: Capstan Ready Rubbed Yellow 1.75oz
Tasted like cigarettes to me. One pipe full and threw the rest away.
Guess I am too used to normal tobac.
My favorite if Frog Morton Cellar.
