1-Q is sold under dozens of different names, and this is one of them. The vanilla and caramel have a nice taste to them, and the tobacco taste is fairly negligible by design (light grassiness). Has very little nicotine. Burns cool at a moderate pace with a consistent flavor. Will leave some moisture in your bowl, and needs an average number of relights. Won't bite. Has a decent after taste and room note. This is one of the quintessential "all day smoking blends", and though it's not a complex mixture, that works to its advantage for people who just want a pleasant, no nonsense, comfortable smoke.

This is a mild blend that I find I can enjoy anytime. It fills the room with pleasant aromas and is easy to smoke. Not a whole lot of flavor, but what is there is quite tasty. I've bought this at the Straus store while in Cincinnati and also on there website www.e-straus.com and I didn't notice any difference, so it must be the same.

This was the first Tobacco I tried and it is wonderful for a beginning smoker. It is actually still my favorite.

If you are an aromatic smoker then you will enjoy this blend. It's essentially Lanes 1Q as mentioned and for me, is the base blend that I use with several more "flavored" Cavendish varieties. It's one that always finds it's way into the rotation but only when blended with other favorites.

Losantiville is indeed Lane's 1Q, according to the manager of the Lexington store.
One almost hates to admit to liking this tobacco, but I do. It's not the world's most sophisticated smoke, but for a quiet, pleasant aromatic that smells tremendously good, you can't beat it. And I do like the "Losantiville" name for it. Straus picks good names for their blends.

Losantiville is the blend recommended with your first pipe. Canendish. Like your "first" of anything, you wonder what else is out there? Mercantile, if your sticking to Straus bluk blends or Middle Earth Blend (now called King Arthur)if looking to spend more. It just doesn't seem to have enough character to get excited about.

Fantastic aroma.
Smooth but the taste could not match the smell. After some trial runs, I gave the rest away. It did not have enough to it to keep my interest.
A very good beginner smoke.
***This has to be Lane's 1-Q (Wilshire)? If not ....... very very close.
