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 an appropriate color palette, Captain Black's Gold mixture is entirely composed of Golden Cavendish, combining the tobacco's natural tangy notes with a subtle topping of sweet vanilla.
