The Classic
October 27, 2024
Product: Captain Black Royal 1.5oz
My grandad smoked it, my dad smoked it, and of course I do. The more I explore tobacco the more I realize it's not my ideal blend, but the room note is pure nostalgia. Deliciously warm and smooth with a hint of leathery spice.
Royal for a reason.

Definitely better than the original, but not as good as the platinum. It's clean, it's crisp, it's light and enjoyable, but lacks any real distinction or personality. However since you can get it just about anywhere, not a bad standby if you want something you know won't let you down when you're out and about....Read More

They seem to know what they are doing, they've been doing it for 120 years now. Perfect moisture, not dry, not to wet, decent flavor, slow burn. Best of all this is sold at even convince stores, no problem finding this tobacco
My Current Favorite Daily Smoke

I started working my way through the Captain Black line up due to my grandfather having smoked it in the 1970's. I enjoyed the original, then really enjoyed the Gold version, but when I landed on Royal! Wow. Just brilliant.
budget starter tobacco

When I first started to smoke a pipe this was my very first tobacco purchase and the first one that I packed into my pipe. It's good budget tobacco made by a classic and well known company. If you are just starting your pipe smoking journey this a good starting point in that journey.
Royal Disappointment
March 31, 2023
Product: Captain Black Royal 1.5oz
Despite what my esteemed peers in the reviews section would say, I found this the most lackadaisical of the Captain Black tobaccos. The strength is on the light side, but not too light. The flavor is just simply too bland for me. Having just gone through and sampled each Captain Black tobacco recently I found this one to lack much redeeming quality for a second buy. While not revolting or nauseating, it is certainly just a basic flavor that doesn’t do much for me in terms of memorability or eliciting desire for more. I smoked this sample pouch for a week and found it to be a rather boring affair. In fact, on one bowl I thought to myself it felt as though I were ‘going through the motions’ as I smoked the pipe; something that should never occur for a truly contemplative, restful, and enjoyable pipe smoking experience. Rather, a good bowl should leave the smoker feeling at ease, and long for more time to commune with his favorite blend. This one, did no such things. At least it did not have the sickly sweet taste of Captain Black Cherry, though. Still, it was just a disappointment, for what should be the Captain’s best....Read More

It's not great, and not bad, its just right for what it is.

Tastes good and gets plenty of compliments from those around me. Burns well with no bite. Reasonable price. My favorite OTC blend of those I've tried so far.
Unassuming daily smoke

If people would leave their snobbishness behind they would realize that the CB line provide an unassuming pleasant aromatic line. Royal is a step above original in taste.
Couldn’t have been more disappointed

Product: Captain Black Royal 1.5oz
I bought this based on a popular reviewer’s perspective hoping it would be a reliable pouch blend. Every bit of it was a complete letdown. Whatever aromatic aspects this is supposed to have, I didn’t get any of it to come through. More reminiscent of a cigarette if anything. Super Value is just a standard pouch blend in my opinion, and it’s way beyond better than this....Read More
