The golden Virginia is grassy with a touch of citrus. The toasted black cavendish is plain, and barely existent outside of a little sugar. The earthy, woody burleys are slightly nutty sweet, though muted a little. I get a hint of vanilla, too. The hazelnut topping is not strong and mostly flashes off in the last third of the bowl. Has little nicotine. Won't bite. Burns well, too well if you're a fast puffer, and will leave some moisture at the finish. Needs few relights. The after taste is hardly obvious. An all day smoke. It's not an awful blend, but it's boring, suffers too many drawbacks, and doesn't have enough plus marks to recommend it.

An unremarkable Virgina/Burley combination that I smoked regularly for about two days. It was so easy to smoke and required no concentration. The Hazelnut extract tasted more like Vanilla to me.

Is it tobacco? Yes. The Hazelnut taste actually dissipates aftr the first half of the bowl. That's when you know you've been had. The cheap leaf is finally revealed at that point.

This is a good morning blend for me because I drink it with a cup of coffee every morning and I like to smoke it in the evening to. It kinda reminds me of Captain Black Gold without the after taste and does have the hazelnut taste to it. This blend has so much more depth to it as well and you can taste the smoothness of the Virginia's and the burley really helps with the nutty taste and cuts the bite out of what the Virginia's would do if the burley was not present. The Cavendish is what makes it taste alittle like the Captain Black Gold but Hazelnut is still nothing like Gold in just saying it reminds me of that blend so please don't think I'm saying it's like Gold because I'm not, its very smooth and actually has some nicotine, not a ton of it but I noticed it does have alittle more then most of Lanes aromatic blends it must be because its main base is Virginia's so that could explain it but in glad it does the way it does because it goes perfect with coffee. Its nutty tones is very light but very good and its not super sweet which is perfect but it is sweet enough to be very enjoyable but not goopy and a wet tounge biting smoke. Very well rounded and I recommend this to a new pipe smoker anyday because its a great all day smoke and to a seasoned pipe smoker who has never tried it because its not a in your face over done typical aromatic and actually taste good, no chemical taste no low grade tobaccos, does not taste artificial and is nice and mild. I give it two thumbs up because I appreciate for what it is. It reminds me of McClellands just plain nut but topped with hazelnut and its affordable you just can't beat that. Have a good night and God bless all you fellow pipe smokers!!!

This is a fairly mild smoking experience. It was easy to smoke slowly and came at a decent state of hydration for me. The topping is a little artificial, and I am not sure I would identify it as hazelnut. I get a little vanilla and maybe some caramel or toasted marshmallow. There is not much tobacco flavor in the first half of the bowl. It turns into a non-descript mild burley flavor in the last half - a little nutty with no earthiness. It leaves an aftertaste which I don't find especially pleasant.

I was not impressed by the topping or its hazelnut flavor. The tobacco base is disappointing. This is better than not smoking but not much.

The room note is nice enough, and burn qualities are good. It does not taste like much.

I think this one has a good, discernible hazelnut flavor. Burns easily and requires no attention.. has a decent room note and a mild tobacco flavor. I do like this one .. I don't think it has a "cheap leaf" flavor, just a very mild one probably not too easy to taste if you're used to stronger blends.

JUST AN OK SMOKE.. GOOD FOR A BEGINNER.

Ye aromatic blasters begone forsooth! My son is visiting from St. Louis and had in his pipe kit a sample packet of Lane Hazlet by Scandinavian Tobacco Group - a gift from a friend who attended the Chicago Pipe Show. As it was dusk, and fearing that I would hate myself all night if I burned his pure Latakia flake (dargon breath), I chose this lovely Lane aromatic in a small gold foil packet (a sample?). Perfect choice for an evening smoke (though I have just bought two tins of Dunhill Nightcap). I smoked a bowl full in the little 1969 Dunhill I gave him for his 40th birthday (b. 1969). Delightful! Waking at 2 AM to attend to a call of nature, I found that the taste in my mouth was pleasant, and I purposed to make a search for this bakky to be among my first activities of the morning... why I'm here. - LongJnSilver, Pipe Club of London

Since I wrote this review I haven't been back to Hazelnut. After awhile the topping evaporated and I kept geting bit. Lowering the rating to 2 stars.

This was discontinued by Lane for awhile so when you order from smoking pipes or pipes and cigars you know you are getting this fresh from Lane. Hazelnut is a very light aromatic (by Lane standards), golden Cavendish with some fire cured thrown in. Not goopy or particularly sticky, smells like Hazelnuts but again its very mild by Lane standards. Hazelnut is no Molto Dolce or Blue Note but does smell very nice and does have some tobacco flavor. I think Hazelnut is a much better smoke as a blender... It's inexpensive, tastes nice and mostly behaves but will bite if provoked, what more can you ask for? Just keep in mind it wont bowl you over with Aromatic flavors, its very mild so if you are looking for a heady blend this isn't it.

I love hazelnuts. I don't love aromatics. I enjoy them from time to time, but love is a strong word. Anyways, I was ordering up a slew of 1oz lane blends to sample and had to give this a try. Comes relatively dry for an Aro, moist, but not goopy. Packs and lights well.

Tiny bit of grass, Nuts (who would've thought?), A bit of vanilla & caramel. moderately sweet but not cloying. Very light body. Very lightly flavored as well. The nuttiness is pleasant, but tastes pretty nondescript, hazelnut specifically is only found in the room note. Not much going on, but it's actually quite pleasant. Very very smooth, doesn't bite, Burns surprisingly dry. No nicotine whatsoever.

Where this blend really shines is as a blender. I enjoyed mixing this 50/50 with RLP6, Blood red moon, and Carter hall specifically. Could definitely be an all day smoke if you like simple things with no nicotine. Surprisingly enjoyable but it's a little too simple and mild for me to repeat the purchase.

I always keep hope that one day I will find another amazing Hazelnut flavored tobacco to rival two long gone greats (Nording Labrador and McClelland's Master Penman), no great strides were made today however.

Inside the pouch was some dry thinly shredded generic weed that was clearly used to serve several Aromatic masters... simply pour on your favorite flavor and sell. The casing smelled fine, wasn't wet nor overly used, but the final product lacked depth. The smoke was mild and unassuming, afraid to deliver any meaningful flavor crystals.

All in all, a generic tobacco without bite that functioned more as a shag for rolling a cigarette.

Upon opening my bag of Lane Hazelnut the aroma was nutty but also creamy with some earthy notes as well. Once I lit the bowl I was able to taste the hazelnut for the first quarter of the bowl then the hazelnut flavor dissipates. I recommend smoking this blend slow. Because this blend burns so well and there is not a high moisture content like a lot of other aromatics smoking this blend was almost effortless.
