Product: Captain Black Dark 1.5oz
This is a smooth black cavendish that is really nice on the tongue. It tastes sweet, a bit earthy and is overall an enjoyable smoke. It’s not an extraordinarily complex tobacco, but this is one that has been tested by time. I enjoy smoking it a whole lot. And it’s nice to have some cheaper and less complex tobaccos for when I’m up and doing things and less worried about the flavor....Read More

As a man who has smoked a pipe for 40 years, I have picked up a couple things that may be helpful to the beginner piper. First, pipe smoking is a personal thing that each person enjoys for different reasons and in different ways. You will read and watch all these well meaning reviewers tell you how to do this and how to do that, don't smoke this or do smoke that. You smoke what tastes good to you and smoke it whatever way you like. Our grandfathers smoked one pipe. They didn't rotate pipes or tobaccos. They smoked one or two brands because that was all that was available. Was their smoking experience less because they didn't do things "the right way." No, they enjoyed their pipe for a lifetime. Enjoy your pipe or pipes with whatever tobacco or tobaccos that you enjoy and in whatever way you like. Second, one of the best tips I ever got was to drink tonic water or a citrus drink while smoking. It cleans the mouth so you can enjoy every sip of the pipe. Third, you can't go wrong with smoking Captain Black blends. They have been around for a long time and taste just fine. They might not meet the criteria of some smokers, but once again if you smoke it and you like it, don't be afraid to buy it. I started out smoking Captain Black Gold many years ago and still smoke it along with other brands. You will find that Captain Black Dark is a nice smooth Black Cavendish that packs well, tastes good and will satisfy your smoking needs....Read More

If you like Cavendish, this fills that on a budget.
My only complaint is I can't find a can of this dark beauty.

If you want to figure whether you like Cavendish, this is the blend to try. Sweet, smooth, cool and sweet.
As good as BCA if not better.

I am a beginner. The scent and taste are excellent.
I want to burn it often, is that okay?

This is the first tobacco I ever smoked. Coming back to it after several years of smoking stronger blends (Kendal Dark is my everyday all day smoke) is like vaping a flavorless nicotine pen, without the nicotine. I liked it at the time years ago, but now... I don't see the point unless used in a blend, or for first time pipe smokers. Even then, it is relatively difficult to smoke for beginners, as it comes so wet in the pouch....Read More
