I just purchased the 9oz. polybag today from my local Rite Aid. It costs me $15.32. It was regular priced and comes to only $1.51 an ounce. No telltale aroma from the unopened bag. No reconizable dating on the bag. It felt right with no air leaks, important in purchasing polybags. Its made by Scandinavian Tobacco Group, Lane Ltd, Tucker, GA. Made in USA. I purchased trusting in Lane Ltd to be honest. I am a fan of the Captain Blacks except for the Cherry, which is too cherry for my tastes. I tried this first in a new cob. I noticed just the right amount of cherry with chocolate notes mixed in. Was pleased from start to finish. Its medium strength and very pleasant. Good aroma. Value priced. Tried it in a Peterson next. It was even better. Borkum Riff Cherry look out. This is better and that was a favorite of mine in the 1980s. Now, if only they would bring out a Whiskey flavor to the line up I might be a perpetual customer. Availability, company, price and quality made this a repeat buy in the future.

Bought this from Rite-Aid for about sixteen dollars and am very pleased with this product. It has a very nice room note and the flavor is very good also. It does not bite and is relatively mild. I personally like to blend this with the Virginia Gold Black Cavendish at a 3 parts cherry to 1 part black ration. The cherry-black mix is very good. I highly recommend this product alone as well as blended with other VG products such as the one I mentioned.
