Lane Limited Captain Black Dark

Well thought I'd but 2 pouches to try on advice while looking for a good Vanilla blend, well on opening the pouch you get that typical Vanilla smell with the sweetness, as I didn't know it was a 100% Cavendish and so Black it says Dark on the pouch but it's as black as coal so I let it dry out for around 15 mins then pack my Meer, goes out to my shed to enjoy lights her up and wow I really like this from the first few puffs, the taste I get is toffee and vanilla sweet but not over bearingly so but hay we all different views in different blends and this is going straight into my rotation of aromatic blends loved it from the off. Just go grab yourselfs a few pouches and enjoy.

This is excellent tobacco.

I tried this back-to-back with BCA and to my tastes, this tastes like BCA with more PG. I didn't find it overwhelming and the mix certainly wasn't goopy, but I like BCA more.

This is rather good, but far from my favorite of the Captain Black collection. The black cavendish is as mild as tobacco can possibly be. Very little nicotine and very little substance to the smoke with a short finish. The topping is what makes this blend special. The flavor is complex with a mild vanilla, chocolate, and licorice taste. Throughout the smoke I notice some spice notes including cinnamon. It never bites and smokes well enough though it typically leaves some moisture in the bowl. The room note is wife approved. I like it, but I’m more inclined to stock up on the original, cherry, royal, and gold all of which have a bit more strength and tobacco taste.

I decided to order a pouch of this because I enjoy CB Regular and Royal. This is an excellent all day smoke that packs easy, burns well, and had a pleasant vanilla taste and the room note is great. I prefer both regular and royal over this however.

Really good! I'm a big fan and couldn't wait to order another pouch. Next time I'll get a 12 oz can.

Aromatics aren't my go-to tobaccos, but when I have company or my wife is around, I want something pleasant for others. This is the right choice!

It's sweet, and the pouch smells like a cross between chocolate and raisins. Like other Captain Black products, this burns to the bottom perfectly, doesn't bite, and the vanilla room note will turn heads.

This one will be in my rotation long after other aromatics are smoked and gone.

This blend arrives in a ribbon cut that packs and lights easily. Surprisingly, it is not too moist. The chocolate and vanilla notes play well together, with a pleasant taste and great room note. I detected no hint of nicotine but did taste the Black Cavendish, the main component here. There was no bite or harshness. Those who smoke aromatics should give it a try.

This blend has a great room note. It is a ribbon cut and packs/lights easily. It arrives not too moist. The vanilla and chocolate notes are ever present. A must try for aromatic lovers. No bite here. One of the better CB blends.

Captain Black Dark has a great pouch/tin note. The ribbon cut makes it easy to load up a pipe. The tobacco was not overly moist and lit easily. The taste, however, is almost non-existant . Maybe my packing technique has been off, but this tobacco seemed to me to need a greater than average number of relights. Did not bite and left a great room note. Could not discern any nicotine content. Recommended only for those who desire a very mild black cavendish.

The pouch aroma is plum or prune. This doesn't translate to the taste. Surprisingly strong tobacco flavor for an aromatic. No bite, smokes cool. Slight gurgle. I prefer CB Gold and CB Royal. Two stars. Stays lit .
