Watch City Cigar Boston Blackie
(3.33)
A delicious vanilla flavored aromatic.
Notes: Note from Watch City- This is NOT a Watch City Tobacco. It is BCA by Lane Limited. When Watch City opened in the 1990’s veteran pipe smokers would come in and ask for “Boston Blackie”, “Faneuil Hall” or “Harvard Square” (Lane’s BCA, 1Q, And RLP-6 respectively). These were the names used by the venerable C.B. Perkins shops for the Lane blends. To avoid Confusion, Watch City adopted these names for the Lane blends.

I grabbed 2oz of this the other day at Watch City Cigar and have been smoking it pretty steadily since. This is a great aromatic. A prominent but not overdone vanilla/whiskey topping over a high quality Black Cavendish. The tobacco comes a bit moist, or at least mine did, but I wouldn't recommend drying it. You'll need to relight it once or twice probably but that's preferable to losing some of the flavor which I think is what would happen if you were to dry it.
All in all a very nice aro, great for casual puffing, especially around non-smokers. It's on my list now.
