Lane Limited BLWB

Goopy and overly moist in bag but doesn't burn that way. Initial lit is somewhat harsh but calms as smoked. Like so many have said this reminds me of many blends of the past and i am sure it will bring back memories of pipe smokers you have known when you catch the aroma in the air. Many claim it is an all day smoke but i never smoke all day and would say that i prefer to relish my smoking time with something a little more interesting.

I like the burley flavor of this tobacco and the fact you can puff away without the dreadful tongue bite, but wish this lane offering had a bit more of a nicotine kick. This is a tobacco I would smoke now and again, but wouldn't break the top 10 in my rotation

I use it occasionally to to soften an aromatic that might be a little to sweet by itself that is the only reason I keep some on hand.

My first impulse was to give it four stars for being exactly what it is billed to be. Burley. Light. Bite free. But there is a bit more to it than B, L, and WB. It has a mild aromatic topping. Someone described it as smelling like pastry. Yeah, that's close.

It burns well and has a clean taste, but very little of it.

The tobacco is probably too lacking in taste for most people, myself included. The whole purpose of burley is taste. Yet even though it is low on taste, I think the topping would limit its usefulness as a neutral component to weaken blends.

I will go with the consensus opinion of two stars.

The pouch aroma of this crimp-cut mixture is dominated by a pastry aroma with a slight burley grassiness.

The flavor is of light and brown burleys and a sweetly ingratiating pastry topping that is hard to dislike.

BLWB is a dependably pleasing blend, easily smoked all day, which teeters on the edge of the simplistic yet always seems to beg for another bowl. This will likely ghost a briar over time. This went well in a chamber of any gauge.

When I stuck my nose in the jar at my tobaccanist's shop it smelled sweet and smooth. I was let down with hopes that it would smoke accordingly. I was disappointed to say the least. Smoked a full chamber twice and won't torture myself to try to like it again.

I find this particular Burley blend to be only marginal in quality if smoked straight. The topping doesn't really do anything for it in terms of flavor and it burns rather quickly. No real Burley flavor to speak of and despite it's name, it can and will bite.

On a more positive note, when used as a mixer, for example 50/50 with BCA, it adds up to a pretty decent all day smoke.

I bought four ounces of this a long time ago when I started sampling burley pipe tobaccos. I still have most of it in a jar.

This burley blend is entirely too wet and too mild for me. The room note is pleasant, but the taste to me is flat and I detect virtually no nicotine content. It smells good in the pouch, sort of a honey aroma, but the taste, flavor, and strength can't compare to Carter Hall or Prince Albert in my opinion.

Only one star for Burley Light Without A Bite.

I was lured into smoking this before I saw the reviews here and have been terribly disappointed. It really threw me a curve with its description, but I believe that there may be some laxity in quality control since I see (feel) differences of opinion in reviews.

I like the pouch aroma and the room note. I like the texture and they easy way it packs. I like the way it lights and stays lit. It has never bit. But man, can it get strong, especially close to the bottom. As it gets down to the dregs, there comes out a distinct bitterness that is always there in every pipe that I have tried it in. Drying it out has helped, but not enough for me.

I believe some reviewers comments are true about the easy flavor of this stuff making me puff too hard in the beginning trying to get some flavor and it makes it stronger at the end, but I have diligently tried to puff slowly and gently from the get-go but all this does is to give me a totally unsatisfying smoke in trying to get something out of it.

Maybe I'll keep it around, as others suggest, to use in blending, but as a regular smoking baccy, no thanks. I think that it would be a disservice even to ever recommend this for a beginner.
