Much like Captian Black regular, I think CB Gold gets a bad rep sometimes. It's not complex, challenging, dynamic, or life-changing. But that's part of what makes it great (for what it is). Pretty much any version of Captain Black is an excellent entry point to new pipe smokers because it's NOT too challenging. Captain Black is a good, solid brand that new pipe smokers can feel tough and manly smoking.
This is, whether us long time tobacco snobs are willing to admit it or not, what non-pipe smokers think of when they say, "I don't smoke a pipe but they sure do smell nice." CB Gold provides a solid and generally non-offensive smoke that's easy to find just about anywhere when you're stuck away from your cellar of high-brow flakes, plugs, ropes, and assorted other blends.

Whatever you say here... for me was a very a pleasant experience 20 yrs ago and probably because of that still is but I admit today is not the same like back then or my taste changed somehow. Anyway the smell is enjoyable and taste too. A little advice (in my opinion) IT IS NOT FOR PUFFING. lol... Start slow and sty on it!

Better than Mac Baren's 7seas Gold! If you like drugstore tobaccos, and Gold blends, you should give it a try! The only minus, which I experienced with Mac Baren as well, is that the tobacco burns a lot! Maybe gold blends tend to do that, I don't know. Still new to the world of pipes!

Pleasant. If you want to buy a pouch, do it only if you like drugstore cased stuff.
Keep your expectations low and you should be fine with this blend.
If you hate drugstore tobacco, do yourself a favor. Don't buy it and don't review it in here. 😉

It burns hot, it bites, and doesn't have much character or depth. Quite frankly, there's no point in smoking this. So do yourself a favor and don't.

I bought the bulk blend of the Cup O Joes, 16 oz of Captain Black Gold, so don't think this is the same as the tin or pack of CBG from stores. However the blend from Cup O Joes is super, very mild, ribbon cut, pleasant aroma, very litle bite, hardly any moisture residue. Right now it is my favorite smoking tobacco as i can smoke it all day without tiring of it. Slight nutty taste.

My Captain Black Gold came in a very fine ribbon cut. I love the look of it. It reminds me of the old fashioned paper easter grass, the really fine cut kind that hangs together when you take it out. This blend's taste is comparable to W. O. Larsen Old Fashioned (possibly better) and is cheaper by the ounce. It tastes as creamy as it smells, without being goopy or wet. Kind of a Chocholate and vanilla base. Beautiful. One of the best aromatics anyone could buy. I recomend buying the tin, not the pouch.

a lot of people dont like this blend. i love it it was my first blend and honestly at like 6 bucks it isnt too bad. easy to get lit and this is one that is good for just raking leaves or doing yard work. for what it is it is good but there is always a better blend
