Captain Black: Cherry 1.5oz Pipe Tobacco

Product Number: 003-537-0004

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 rich, red color palette, Captain Black's Cherry mixture delights with a blend of Bright Virginias, Burley, and toasted Black Cavendish, topped with with a robust cherry flavor for a fruity profile and alluring room note.

First pipe tobacco I ever smoked
April 20, 2025
By: Monte S.
Product: Captain Black Cherry 1.5oz
Boy am I glad I found this site. It's a wonder I wasn't turned away from pipe smoking forever. I bought this and a corncob at a liquor store to dip my toes in and see if pipe smoking was for me. Luckily I got impatient and dove in headfirst anyway; having already placed an order for a Peterson and some Quiet Nights, Nightcap and Lane 1-Q. Had it been just for this alone I would have walked away for good. It is the fakest most artificial cherry flavor I've ever tasted. It's like gargling with Robitussin, as it leaves that saccharine/aspartamey taste in your throat long after you've finished your pipe. My desire to take up this new endeavor was so great it enabled me to tolerate smoking through half the bag until my order arrived with nothing but hope driving me forward. I was so relieved to find that it got better. So much better; and the rest of the bag went in the trash. It did give me PTSD though and it scared me away from aromatics for over a year and a half. I will never ever try a cherry-flavored tobacco again thanks to this. The flashbacks would be too terrifying....Read More

It's not bad, but it's HEAVY on the syrup smell and taste. There are many cherry blends out there i prefer over this one it was also a little bitey.

Old Timey

A classic old blend. It produces columns of rich smoke. It's a mellow crowd pleaser type blend. A bit sweet and has a bit of cherry flavor. Smoke it slow and easy.

Not too bad
April 30, 2024

Product: Captain Black Cherry 1.5oz
I've had an odd mix of really wet and so dry it crumbles. The cherry isn't overpowering and is more on the "dark cherry" side which makes it pleasant. Doesn't bite too badly but it will get you if you don't go slowly.

Not for Human Consumption
September 09, 2022
By: David D.
Product: Captain Black Cherry 1.5oz
Alright. I’m gonna say it. This tobacco has no place in a connoisseur’s cellar. The smell of artificial, medicinal cherry is nauseating from the bag. And, like many others have said, when smoked it almost always gives tongue bite. The aroma is pungent, and not in a hood aromatic way. Imagine burning medicine, and you’ll come somewhere close to what this monstrosity smells like. One can barely taste the cherry with all of the tongue irritation, either. This is one of the worst tobacco’s I have ever tried. I will not be buying another bag....Read More

No real redeeming quality

If you want to smoke a CB blend every other one is much better. If you want to smoke a cherry aromatic any other cherry blend I have tried has been much better.

My Favourite

Product: Captain Black Cherry 1.5oz
I'm a bit puzzled by all the negative reviews for this tobacco, I've tried many over the years and this is far and away my favourite. Wife loves the smell while I'm puffing , so a win both ways.

Very Cherry
November 19, 2020
By: Clint S.
Product: Captain Black Cherry 1.5oz
This smells like the cherry old timers smoked. Very distinct, very noticeable. So much so that you may need to keep the pouch in a zip lock bag. That may not appeal to some, but I prefer a bold flavor/smell as opposed to something subtle.

Captain, WTF happened?!
August 08, 2021
By: werewolf777
Product: Captain Black Cherry 1.5oz
First, if you're a cherry lover, here are three blends that are vastly superior: Cult Blood Red Moon, McLintock Black Cherry, and Gawith Hoggarth & Co American Black Cherry. I like Cpt Black, but this smells like cherry flavored medicine and has a chemical taste to it. Cannot recommend....Read More
