About This Pipe Tobacco
Made under the Lane Limited name — a tobacco manufacturer with roots dating to Dresden, Germany, in 1890 — Captain Black is among the world's most iconic lines of pipe tobacco, having made its debut in 1956 and eventually becoming America's best-selling pipe tobacco brand. For many pipe smokers, Captain Black's blends represent the archetype of Aromatic mixtures, redolent of nostalgia and conjuring memories of times when pipe-smoking was more commonplace in society.
Marked by a black-and-white color palette, Captain Black's Original mixture leads the brand's selection with a classic combination of Golden Virginias, Burley, and Black Cavendish, topped with hints of vanilla for a delightful room note and sweet flavor profile.

Not bad at all

h?
Out of desperation, I tried something that I had smoked in the early 1970s -Captain Black original.
I had remembered that the tinned version was superior to the pouches. The pouches always seen to have more chemicals and a funny aftertaste.
When the 7 oz tin arrived, I ripped it open and sniffed it. Though it's now made in Denmark, it was very,very closed to what I remembered way back in the Gerald Ford administration.
Having smoked many very good English blends over the decades, and then the Amphora Cavendish blends, I think I know excellent from good, and good from bad.
This stuff in the tin is not bad at all. The sort of pipe tobacco that you could puff all day, if you wanted to. It's affordable, available....Read More

anyone. Captain Black just has very few good qualities. You are just going to get tongue-bite from the steam and sweeteners more than likely. Captain Black and Black Cavendish just have no soul left in them after all the processing they go through....Read More

gasp!)—but let's face it: it's ridiculously delicious. Burns perfectly, stays cool and dry, and smells so good even smoke-haters seem suspiciously drawn into its magical smoke cloud at the park. Seriously, Karen, if you hate smoke so much, why are you standing directly downwind, hmm? I've loved this blend shamelessly for decades, and I'm not even sorry. Captain Black forever!...Read More

Great smelling. Easy smoking. Great tasting. You can find it almost anywhere. I’m trying other tobacco and always coming back to this old faithful.
