this tobacco is very mis-leading with it's name. light--I DON'T FIND IT LIGHT AT ALL. smokes very well, very light vanilla flavoring. however I have just about finished a pouch, and I can tel you this tobacco has a kick to it. It is certainly not mild in nicoteen!!! Being a pipe smoker for over 40 years, I have certainly tried my share of tobaccos. I know taste is subjective, however if I gave creedence to these reviews I would never have picked up a pouch of this tobacco. This is a great all day tobacco. It is not sweet, and has tobacco flavor. I can't understand for the life of me, how a reviewer can judge a tobacco after only one bowl. this tobacco really started to shine after, and only after, almost a full ounce and half was smoked. very tasty indeed, with no tounge bite.

Not sure if this isn't BLWB in pouch form. Almost the same pouch note and smokes very similarly. Maybe a bit more Virginia in this blend but almost the same. Enjoyable mild smoke. Burns well with few re lights. I happen to like BLWB which seems to be contrary to most on this site but to each his own. I like this as well. Nice room note and no bite.

I like it, not to strong and not to "bity" on the old tongue. ( Is that a word, "bity"? ) It has a full flavour. It smokes well and doesn't gum up the pipe too much. I like this tobacco especially that it usually stays lit throughout the smoke. The smoke pairs well with coffee or bourbon as well while smoking in the study, which is enjoyable. It is a little to strong for my tastes, but I liked it anyway. It is probably better for a regular smoker than an occasional puffer like myself.

When you open the pouch there is a smell of plain tobacco. The sweet aroma comes from the Cavendish that is used. The vanilla is very faint. Comes ready to smoke and packs easily; very much a working man's smoke that takes no fuss and is truly a simple pleasure. The aroma is nice, but the wife only tolerates it. It smells of tobacco and a little vanilla. It reminds me a lot of Captain Black Regular, but with less complexity. The smoke is thick and the flavor remains the same throughout the bowl. Now, this is still an aromatic, so remember to puff slowly and not get carried away. It will bite if you get careless. The tobacco smokes down to the bottom with the same flavor and aroma that you started with. The ash is fine and and it very nice. It practically jumps out of the pipe. Again, no fuss. Tap and go. The pipe is left dry and ready for the next smoke. If you could still buy a quick pouch of tobacco at your local drug store, this would be a nice pick for the common man who just needs something to fill his pipe and still have money for groceries.

Just a pleasant and mild tobacco that everyone around you will find delightful. Smoke it slowly because this one can bite a bit. If you smoke CB Round slowly enough to avoid the bite, you also will be smoking it slowly enough to enjoy both the topping and the tobacco. I would consider this a light aromatic for the experienced smoker who wants a higher grade of tobacco than the regular CB blend. Much like I have experienced with all of the other CB blends, this one burns more rapidly than other tobaccos I smoke. It seems a well packed full bowl burns in about 1/2 to 1/3 the time that I usually get from a bowl of tobacco. That said, it burns to a very fine ash and leaves little dottle behind. I enjoyed the pouch and would recommend it as an occasional purchase.
