Smells like chocolate, maybe a little vanilla, to me. Tastes the same. Very sweet, very mild, very wet with a lot of residue, the tobacco seems to contribute very little to the taste. Not much more here than chocolate and vanilla, maybe some cream, but sometimes that's enough. If I dig too deep, there is a little weird aftertaste that I can't place, something acrid, metallic, but it's more than that. It is pretty far in the background. I think there are better options to fill this niche in my pantry, for example Missouri Meerschaum's Great Dane. Can't imagine choosing BCA over Great Dane.

It’s Lane Limited 1-Q’s older brother.
BCA is certainly more flavorful than 1-Q, but not overly so. On the rare occasion where I find myself reaching for this, it’s usually to mix with a codger like SWR.
On its own, BCA provides anise liqueur notes, vanilla, and a mild creaminess. I suppose this could be an all-day smoke due to how mild it is, but why would you pick it over anything else?

Bag note is mild vanilla. Cavendish is entirely solid black ribbons. Flavor is mildly vanilla. Moisture content is not too wet, about right. Room note is a hint of vanilla. Not bad but I'm not wild about aromatics, and if i were, it would be molto dolce. Two stars.

I enjoy using Lane BCA as a condiment tobacco for adding into some of my favorite blends, mainly Half and Half. I find that adding just a small amount can really smooth things out and add just a touch of extra creaminess and sweetness.
I do not enjoy using it as a stand alone blend...aroma is too cloyingly sweet for my senses and there is not much in the tobacco flavor or nicotine department.
Great for blending.

This famous blend from Lane is widely distributed. Right off the bat I detect grass notes and the vanilla. The chocolate seemed to be toned down and hardly noticed. I also tasted grass, and my nemesis licorice, which I do not care for. Slight amount of goop in the bottom of the bowl, but just a minor amount. Still, I don't like my pipe to be gooped up. The room note, however, is very pleasant.

Chemically pleasant aroma, but definitely artificial. Smokes easily. Few relights, but underneath it all is something that for all the world smells like an air freshener.

i think this tobacco has changed. It doesn't smoke as cool as past reiterations (2008) i have cellard. I can't put my finger on it, but it tasted a bit perfumed, and burns warm.

If your wife burns incense and potpourri in the house and you like it, then both of you will love this blend. Whatever relationship it has to tobacco eludes me. I understand that is what English blend folks say about all aromatics. I love aromatics, but this is over the top. Pull some grass out of your backyard and pour a little (or a lot)of cheap perfume on it, count to 10 and smoke it. The fact is, however, that many people like that kind of stuff and if you are one of them - go for it. Even I can enjoy a bowl of this once in a while, say 2 or 3 times a year. Every day, I fear, would result in diabetes.
