Lane Limited Hazelnut
(2.58)
A superbly balanced blend of golden Virginia and burley tobaccos enhanced with a flurry of full bodied toasted cavendish and lavishly flavored with a delightful extract of freshly roasted hazelnuts.

An unremarkable Virgina/Burley combination that I smoked regularly for about two days. It was so easy to smoke and required no concentration. The Hazelnut extract tasted more like Vanilla to me.
Is it tobacco? Yes. The Hazelnut taste actually dissipates aftr the first half of the bowl. That's when you know you've been had. The cheap leaf is finally revealed at that point.

This is a fairly mild smoking experience. It was easy to smoke slowly and came at a decent state of hydration for me. The topping is a little artificial, and I am not sure I would identify it as hazelnut. I get a little vanilla and maybe some caramel or toasted marshmallow. There is not much tobacco flavor in the first half of the bowl. It turns into a non-descript mild burley flavor in the last half - a little nutty with no earthiness. It leaves an aftertaste which I don't find especially pleasant.
I was not impressed by the topping or its hazelnut flavor. The tobacco base is disappointing. This is better than not smoking but not much.
The room note is nice enough, and burn qualities are good. It does not taste like much.

I think this one has a good, discernible hazelnut flavor. Burns easily and requires no attention.. has a decent room note and a mild tobacco flavor. I do like this one .. I don't think it has a "cheap leaf" flavor, just a very mild one probably not too easy to taste if you're used to stronger blends.
JUST AN OK SMOKE.. GOOD FOR A BEGINNER.

Since I wrote this review I haven't been back to Hazelnut. After awhile the topping evaporated and I kept geting bit. Lowering the rating to 2 stars.
This was discontinued by Lane for awhile so when you order from smoking pipes or pipes and cigars you know you are getting this fresh from Lane. Hazelnut is a very light aromatic (by Lane standards), golden Cavendish with some fire cured thrown in. Not goopy or particularly sticky, smells like Hazelnuts but again its very mild by Lane standards. Hazelnut is no Molto Dolce or Blue Note but does smell very nice and does have some tobacco flavor. I think Hazelnut is a much better smoke as a blender... It's inexpensive, tastes nice and mostly behaves but will bite if provoked, what more can you ask for? Just keep in mind it wont bowl you over with Aromatic flavors, its very mild so if you are looking for a heady blend this isn't it.

I love hazelnuts. I don't love aromatics. I enjoy them from time to time, but love is a strong word. Anyways, I was ordering up a slew of 1oz lane blends to sample and had to give this a try. Comes relatively dry for an Aro, moist, but not goopy. Packs and lights well.
Tiny bit of grass, Nuts (who would've thought?), A bit of vanilla & caramel. moderately sweet but not cloying. Very light body. Very lightly flavored as well. The nuttiness is pleasant, but tastes pretty nondescript, hazelnut specifically is only found in the room note. Not much going on, but it's actually quite pleasant. Very very smooth, doesn't bite, Burns surprisingly dry. No nicotine whatsoever.
Where this blend really shines is as a blender. I enjoyed mixing this 50/50 with RLP6, Blood red moon, and Carter hall specifically. Could definitely be an all day smoke if you like simple things with no nicotine. Surprisingly enjoyable but it's a little too simple and mild for me to repeat the purchase.

Somewhat underwhelming. It has a slight nutty flavor, but too mild to call hazelnut, IMHO. No tongue bite, can be smoked at any time of day. Many compliments from bystanders, some could even ID it as hazelnut. Ready to smoke out of the pouch, moisture level perfect.

Lane Hazelnut isn't too bad! The tin note is a nice nutty aroma. It lights well, and wasn't too wet at all. Once lit, the hazelnut went to the background. It was there still in the room note but not overpowering. Very subtle. If you're looking for a soft nutty smoke, this is nice. If you're looking for a strong Nutella style nuttiness, this isn't it. Nevertheless, not bad.

This tobacco is okay, I did not detect any flavor of hazelnut during the smoke at all. This is something that can be smoked all day without any problem. I can detect the hazelnut upon opening the can but that's as far as it goes. This is a decent tobacco but there's better Blends out there. This would be a decent smoke from new pipe smoker.

Lane Limited - Hazelnut.
Prominently it's a brown ribbon but includes a small amount of black pieces. Apart from a few coarser ribbons the majority's pretty well rubbed. The unlit aroma has more of a sweetness to it than a nuttiness.
Once lit the flavour's more of an aromatic VaBur, without Cavendish. There's a sweetness present, but this seems heavier than I'd expect from Cavendish. To be fair the sweetness easily outweighs the hazelnuts; I can hardly taste any nuts! It burns a bit quick.
Nicotine: mild to medium. Room-note: quite pleasant.
I don't find this that bad a smoke, nor do I find it anything like the description. The name shouldn't be Hazelnut. For this reason I can only somewhat recommend it:
Two stars.

I smoked a grand total of two bowls before drawing a conclusion:
Forgettable.
Nevermind the fact I find Cavendish tobaccos largely forgettable to begin with; this blend tends to smell awesome in the pouch, and in the air...it's in the snork that it happens to bore the pee out of me. Once again, a trait only mildly peculiar to me: cavendish=blah.
Not a super common trait, I know...many of you' se love it...more power to ya. Me? I can do without.
If you like the smell of hazelnuts..go for it. I prefer my 'baccy to taste like 'baccy. Not a bad thing, whether for you, or me.
2 generous stars.
