Most will hate to admit it but the one blend most of us started out with is still a good hearty rich enjoyable Smoke. For many years I didn't want to give in and buy it. Because I thought my taste were so far above this blend. But you want to know like many I was wrong. YES,There is no Latakia Turkish Oriental and it isn't blended in small batches with cool tin art. It is what it is. A good all day smoke women love the aroma very pipey and the smoke is ever so good. So come on and Enjoy a bowl.

Well what can be said about this blend that hasn't already been said. Good Bad or Indifferent This blend is an American Classic. It should be called Captain America. After smoking all the other top shelf blends of many differnt tin and bulk type latakia, Oriental Turkish, Flake and Shag ect. It is always good to come home to a blend that has been good since I was a kid.

I bought the Royal and the White in bulk and find myself coming back to the White over and over again. I let this sit for awhile after trying it and am enjoying it a lot. Goes well with a coffee in the morning or at anytime. Very pleasant scent/taste and room note. Highly recommend.

.... The Captain of the ship had decided. I was to walk the plank. I had made a seemingly small mistake.... or at least I thought it was small; but to Captain Black, it wasnt. To put it simply, I had made love with his woman. You see, Black always kept that fiery Spaniard, Isabella on the ship; always. She never left, so needless to say, she was rather lonely. And I, having seen nothing but gruff pirates and fish was often tempted with this forbidden fruit... But let me start from the beginning.

On one night the captain had left to lay raid to a Royal Navy vessel with the men, and left me to swab the deck. The nerve... I was one of the best guns on the ship... How could he? But shortly thereafter my abandonment, I wouldst reap a reward.

The opportunity struck as I was cleaning the captain's quarters as per my instruction. And there she was; the fair skinned Isabella, changing before my eyes, unclothing herself as her eyes pierced into mine. There she stood before me, fully unclothed, pleading with me to take her there in the Captain's bed; I gave in... to my great pleasure... 6 times on that moon's rise to be exact. I had never been with anyone quite like Isabella. She even remarked on my size, saying I "out gunned" that of the noble captain. As we lay there, sweating after making love like wild animals, I craved my vice, the only thing that could appropriately cap off the night. I had to smoke. The captain had always kept in his possession his prized pipe, and I concluded... Why not? I had already taken use of his woman; why not delve into his sacred stash? All I needed was the key around Isabella's neck, which she gladly gave me, due to the fact that my balls hung low, they wobbled too and fro as well.

I smoked the pipe tobacco wilts once again laying "siege" to Isabella's booty. The tobacco was mild and delightfully aromatic. Once the sun began to rise, I covered my tracks well, but not well enough for Ole Captain Black. He detected my presence in his chambers the moment he arrived on the ship. How, still remains a mystery to me. Never the less, he was furious. So I walked. At the end of the plank I turned to the crew and bid farewell, blowing a kiss to the Spanish beauty. Then to the captain, I turned and said "Seems to be that I was the captain of HER ship!!" Then I jumped, plunging into the depths of the sea.

From Lane Limited:

"Dear Mr. Brown

Thank you for taking an interest to our products Captain Black Pipe tobacco, in which I am very glad to answer your inquiry.

None of our Captain Black pipe tobacco variants contain alcoholic flavoring. In general, when we use alcoholic flavorings for other pipe tobaccos, then the alcohol itself will perish quickly and before it reaches the consumers.

Thus smoking pipe tobaccos will not cause smokers to obtain alcohol in their body/bloodstream."

Kind regards / Med venlig hilsen Hans Greibe Hansen International Junior Brand Manager

Tis the holiday seasonand and the Better/Half asked me to find a pleasant tobacco that would'nt be objectionable to the folks who dont find the room-note of my English/Balkan blends that I Love to smoke, as we make are rounds to holiday gatherings. So I figured what the hell and grabed a pouch CBW when I went out the other day. My Pops smoked this stuff by the tub full when it hit the market back in the 70's and I loved the room-note when I was a kid, Mom also never had anything bad to say about CBW. I think I may have smoked a pouch or two at the begining of my pipe smoking career back in the mid-late 80's until I was turned on to english blends in the early 90's. Now to get back to CBW I fired up a pipe-full this morning with my Cup O Joe and when the Better/Half got half way to the kitchen she was asking what is that "Wonderful" smell was, so CBW has passed the room-note test. Taste wise? well it's CBW I find it as a mild aromatic with some tobaco flavor. I like the way the burly peeks it's head out every once in awhile. I guess Pops knew a good thing after all. If your looking for a smoke that wont offend those around you pick up a pouch. You can find this stuff just about anywhere that sells tobacco hell you may even make a few friends who dont even smoke, and at about 5 bucks for a pouch there will be No Harm / No Foul if you dont care for it.

Your Brother in Smoke

Not a bad smoke at all. But have lots of pipe cleaners. Loads of pipe cleaners. Price wise I wouldn't consider this cheap tobacco either. 7-8 bucks for 1.5 oz isn't cheap.

I'll still prefer Captain Royal a bit more. Its not as wet.
