Captain Black: Premium Edition Red Sky 1.75oz Pipe Tobacco

When you open the tin you will say cough syrup or cough drops but when you light it,it's a really light cherry

I have had a mixed history with Captain Black blends, this one is one of the better blends. Black Cavendish, Burley, and a touch of Gold Virgina, smokes well, and is not over powered by the "Cherry" topping. This would be a good "all-day" smoke, with just a hint of "Cherry"....Read More

Best cherry tobacco I've tasted so far. Nothing to do with regular CB cherry. Creamy, tasty. Part of my rotation

awesome tobacco! So tasty and wonderfull! It's a must for everyone who likes sweet tobaccos... amazing! ;)

I found it difficult to believe the reviews for this "cherry" blend. So, I bought some. Best ever! I shy away from aromatics because of severe tongue bite. Absolutely none here. Wonderful flavor from beginning to end, not hot at all. One light and I was good to go. I wish this had been around decades ago. To the people who superbly blend this, I say, DON'T CHANGE ANYTHING!...Read More

Red sky is rather pleasent with a real hint of cherry. The Cavendish as well as Burley are my favorites. overall good

If you like aramotic, try it.

This is the first time I tried Red Sky and I can't complain. Nice flavor, burns well, no gooping, nice aroma. Got a compliment sitting outside: "That smells nice. What is it?" The "cherry" taste isn't as prevalent as Captain Black Cherry so if you're expecting a cherry blend, this isn't it. I will buy again just to add it to my rotation....Read More

Accommodating and soft smoking. Smells like fresh cherries and convincingly tastes that way too. As good as Blood Red, but a bit more refined in presentation. Burn rate is excellent with minimum fuss and leaves a dry dottle at bowl's end (which can't be said for many Cherry blends).

I used to smoke Captain Black cigars and even though they are well known for their aroma, they usually didn't have much taste. When I first opened this tin the aroma was fantastic. I lit my bowl and was getting the same sort of taste like the cigars. But once it began to burn more evenly the cherry flavour started to come through more and more. The taste eventually came and it was really great, a very well mixed blend. The room note is definitely Captain Black worthy and getting a quick wiff of it with every drag on the pipe just added to the experience. This turned out to be a great tobacco....Read More
