Royal is part of my regular rotation (don't judge me).
June 09, 2018
Product: Captain Black Royal 1.5oz
Captain Black unfortunately gets pigeonholed into drugstore fair. They are actually quality blends at a reasonable price – Win/Win. Both Royal and Dark are in my regular rotation. I like a good solid English blend with the rest of 'em, and I like pur... Read More
ity flakes and VA/Pers, I even like Burley blends sometimes, but sometimes...sometimes I like an aromatic too. Captain Black is great for this. The Original (White) is quite good, but Royal just steps up the sweetness to where I like it. It's ultra-mild, a fine ribbon easy for packing and lighting, burns away to very little ash at a moderate rate. It has a discernible topping that isn't quite vanilla, but certainly is generically sweet (I assume a glycerol humectant?) but it doesn't seem too artificial or ruin the natural flavors of the tobacco. It is all Cavendish so the sweetness could be a result of the process too. I don't know what they use, but I like it. It makes for an easy anytime smoke that's good all year round. It's also great for beginners until they get a feel for what they can tolerate. If you can't smoke CBR, you need a different hobby. If you just can't bring yourself to try Captain Black, just go ahead and get Lane Limited 1-Q. I'm pretty sure they are one-in-the-same. Why 1-Q can be rated so highly and Royal be often overlooked because it's Captain Black is beyond my comprehension. Read Less
Never disappoints

Product: Captain Black Royal 12oz
This classic Captain Black blend never disappoints. It has a very mild flavor and I always get comments on the aroma, even outside sitting - someone said they smelled it from a block away and loved it. I've tried 100s of different blends but this one... Read More
is in my top 3 favorites. I just added Captain Black Midnight Gold to my top favorites as well after smoking my first tin of it. Too bad it's not available in bulk. But I always have Captain Black Royal on hand for my daily rotation. I forgot to mention it burns well. Read Less
My favorite OTC blend
November 24, 2017
Product: Captain Black Royal 1.5oz
Royal is my favorite CB blend, and I'd go even further to say it's my favorite OTC blend. It's so creamy and tasty. I keep this one around all the time.
my favorite aromatic

Product: Captain Black Royal 1.5oz
This is my favorite aromatic tobacco. The topping is silky vanilla. And I can still taste the virginia. Nice cool burn. A very nice balanced blend.
这是我最喜欢的调味草。味道是非常顺滑的香草味，V草依然可以尝的出来。斗温低。很平衡的一款调配。

I enjoy this captain black blend best by far. Even when I buy something else I always go back to Captain Black Royal.
Really nice with a cup of Joe

I love smoking this early in the morning with a cup of coffee. Nice subtle vanilla flavor that isn't too strong. The Cavendish is a delight to smoke. Not too moist and stays lit consistently. Wonderful blend to smoke all day.
Tried and true

Product: Captain Black Royal 1.5oz
There’s a reason this sells so well and has been around so long. And it is not the price. It is just plain good. Don’t fall victim to the tobacco snob trap and assume this this not worth your time because it is a drug store blend.
I prefer Gold
March 08, 2021
Product: Captain Black Royal 1.5oz
this smoke to me is a little darker, a little richer and a little heavier than the Gold, but in a good way.
It adds a little extra to the experience by introducing some of the more natural tobacco flavours, by that i mean that it's not as heavily top... Read More

Surprising
December 16, 2020
Product: Captain Black Royal 1.5oz
Not bad honestly, it bridges the gap between a light burley and a heavy aromatic cavendish, like the description says, it’s ridiculously light, zero bite, cool smoking. Kind of boring basic character, but consistent and slightly sweet, would be good ... Read More
for beginners or an everyday smoke without being too expensive. Worth having that’s for sure. Read Less

now after passing my 30th I start smoking as a hobby, maybe four to six times per month. make me relax, vanilla room note, reduce my wife complain about smoking on apartment :) but some cigarettes smoker prefer gold version, because has more tobacco note rather than black Cavendish taste. its totally base on how use and get joy as a routine, for some people take time to adjust it. but I am a person can get joy from routine habit. like I don't like change my coffee from lavazza super crema... even after I moved to Canada from Chicago. I try to keep my stuff same. even up here everything much more expensive than us. but I try to pay extra to keep myself happy ;)
thanks for smokingpipes.com to sending me about 20 pack of 50g for Canada, each one cost me include shipping and everything about 9USD, which here in Canada sell for 30USD for each pack ! Read Less

Takes me back to being a young man when my dad used to smoke from a pipe. The smell is great and the taste is smooth. Will be a part of my regular rotation.

In my opinion Captain Black Royal is better than the White. The key to its success is its availability. For those who do not like ordering online it is almost guaranteed you can find in most places tobacco is sold. It smokes well and has a good taste... Read More

Nice flavor, good room note, no bite. Compared to other CB blends this is my favorite.
Product: Captain Black Royal 12oz
A more rich Cavendish blend of the classic Captain Black. I recommend this to someone who is a more advanced smoker. Rich Cavendish is a real treat.

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

Product: Captain Black Royal 1.5oz
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.

开始玩儿烟斗的时候第一款品尝的草，当时觉得很香，印象挺好的，后来抽的多了，才知道好抽的烟草太多了，这个也就没什么感觉了。个人感觉应该不是一款很受欢迎的烟草。

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... Read More
a cigarette if anything. Super Value is just a standard pouch blend in my opinion, and it’s way beyond better than this. Read Less

Just like Lane 1-Q, outstanding classic flavor and smell. I like this better than original because I'm not a Burley fan.
Not too bad, not the greatest either.

It was ok on flavor, a bit more tongue bite than others. Wouldn’t be upset if I traveled somewhere and this was all I could find.
Product: Captain Black Royal 1.5oz
Doesn't get any trashier than this! Even among aromatics, this is the lowest grade stuff.

Great base blend
October 02, 2018
Product: Captain Black Royal 1.5oz
This is not too bad by itself, a little wet but east enough to dry out. I use this and Sir Walter Raleigh Aromatic in a 50/50 blend. I add Stokkebye Nougat at 50% blend with the base and that is one good smoke, for me at least. It is good with other ... Read More

Se puede hacer mucho más que eso con Black Cavendish y Virginia... En general no está mal, pero si hay CB Original, no ordenaría esta mezcla.
Big Disappointment

Product: Captain Black Royal 1.5oz
Being one of the most reckoned blends from Captain Black line, I indeed had high hopes for this one. But unfortunately it disappointed me a lot.. The taste is quite faint - at least in comparison to CB Regular - and it's extremely moist, wet even. An... Read More
d no matter how long I dry it, it stays moist and can barely be kept lit. It bites quickly, however careful you are. Which is stressful rather than calming. Read Less

This was my first pipe tobacco I tried. It is OK, but I didn't feel it gave me the taste or the feeling I wanted it. Maybe it is too light. I will go on to try other things.
Product: Captain Black Royal 1.5oz
Not to bad, i have a different taste though. Little bit on bite for me..
Back to Black
January 30, 2013
Product: Captain Black Royal 1.5oz
After some years, I have smoked CB again. It is quite good, don't bite, ease to light and to smoke. The only negative side is, for me, it don't have a strong flavor. It was nice go back to oldies.
