Fader's Unique
(3.00)
Light, golden cavendish skillfully blended with our black vanilla cavendish. Some call it coconut - some call it chocolate... you'll call it great.

As covered by another reviewer, this IS Lane 1Q (Uni as in 1, que, well you get it), which is supposedly a more premium version of the same blend which is Captain Black Royal (Blue). See reviews of both of those blends, there are many.
This is an outstanding smoke as long as you dry it out a little first. If you smoke it straight out of the bag you will only get sweetness that seems to go right up your nose, and zero tobacco flavor. When allowed to "air out" overnight at the very minimum, spread out on some paper plates (jar it after drying) you'll appreciate all the nuances of this blend, and the flavor is complex and seems to change throughout the bowl. Occasionally you get a nice caramel, as well as a definite taste of Virginia.
This one sort of restored my like of aromatics, which I had all but written off after one too many disappointments from the Fader's line. Then again, they didn't actually "blend" this one. The young guy at the Towson store told me that only about half of their house blends are actually their own creation.

It is a good blend. I have smoked it on and off for years. It's not overpowering in anyway. Not my favorite blend but worth a try.
