Captain Black Original (Regular)

New pipe smoker here and this was recommended by a lot of people. Bag note I get dark chocolate and booze-soaked cherries. The smoke is sweet and I get faint hints of fruit. The room note is pleasant and it burns real smooth no bite. at the end of the bowl the fruit dies down and sweetness goes away but the smoke is still pleasant. this will be added to my buy again list as a daily smoker and is Cellar worthy.

The aroma when smoked is very pleasant.

👍

Very good

the sweetness and bite were perfect.

Very smooth. Aromatic. I understand why Captain Black tobaccos have been around for decades.

You cant go wrong with a classic. Just the right about if moisture and flavor

ok

Reliable smooth tobacco that always receives compliments from passers by

Smells good, taste great

Always a good choice.

My favorite pipe tobacco

My favorite but too costly

Smokes well.

I like trying new and different tobacco but I always come back to Captain Black Original.

Awesome flavor

good , smell good , blend good

I was led to believe that Capt. Black original was one of the best. It's just OK. I would not purchase again.

My personal favorite for many years

Smells good. smokes without a bite. But seems the pipe doesn't smoke long enough with this tobacco.

Cherry and original captain black the only tobacco I smoke

I started smoking Captain Black flavors about 15 years ago, quit pipes for a while and recently started back up again. All burn well, flavorful with pleasant smell.

This is my favorite go to for my pipe. Its soo smooth and smokes well. Ive gotten a few complements on the good aroma as well.

Captain black is always good boy you guys did to your best selling stuff it's not broke anymore you want to stick all the greedy money in your pocket shame on you

Great value!

Excellent quality. Fast and dependable delivery.

Used for years

I like it, and that's all that matters.

Excellent slightly milder tobacco. Lots of compliments on aroma.

A nice blend

I didn't think I was going to like it when I first opened the bag and smelled it. It smells very sweet but the taste is only slightly sweet. Very enjoyable. Will definitely buy again.

Captain Black Original is a fine pipe tobacco. It smells good, has no appreciable bite and smokes cleanly. The only problem is that it cost more than it did 50 years ago.

Classic blend for me. If you’re a regular smoker looking for a quality smoke, this is always a go-to. And don’t be shy about mixing it with other blends if you want a little variety.

Been smoking CBO for over 30 years. Still my Number 1 go to tobacco for its consistently mild smoke with no bite and grat aroma.

The only thing I will smoke is captain black. Original and cherry

I have tried other blends over the years but always come back to this one for my daily smoke. My wife also loves the aroma!

I mix 50/50 with C B Gold, been smoking this for 30+ years; mild, but enough flavor to satisfy, easy on the tongue.

What can I say about this ole tobacco. It was one of the first I tried when I became a pipe smoker, and I always have a pouch with me. It's a great All day tobacco and great aroma for the money

Captain Black is my go-to smoke. I have smoked it for 30 years. It is a smooth and enjoyable smoke. You can not go wrong with Captain Black and everyone enjoys the aroma. One guy told me the aroma reminded him if his grandfather and thanked me.

I have smoked capt black for years after switching from cherry blend. I love capt black

Always the best!

#1 best

very good

i am always using same product for many years. it is the best flavor to me.

Great smoke. 15 years

👍

Great blend, love the smell & burns evenly.

Good stuff

Good stuff

Good. The Royal is better

Smooth, good tasting,great aroma

It’s getting more difficult to find locally. Good price and shipping

Very good smoke have used this tobacco for years it is my everyday smoke

Capt. Black is my go too. Quality is consistent and always a good smoke.

Very smooth and aromatic

Smoked Captain Black for forty years. Nothing equels it in my opinion

Fire!!!!!

Enjoy very much, smoked for many years

Just right blend

I enjoy Capt'n Black, Original and Dark are the only two I have tried and the casing is the same for both, which is a liquor, vanilla-ish scent and flavor. The dark burns and smokes rather well, and the original adds some kick to the blend with the addition of VA and Burley. I will try Royal in due time, and Im sure I will enjoy it. I do not smoke alot of aro's but I always enjoy my bowl of CB, every time!

The best pipe tobacco!

There is always a great supply and it’s the only tobacco my husband smokes. It’s mild , sweet and doesn’t burn hot. Sure wish it came in bulk again .

Great smoke !!!

one of my favorite blends right here! its a bit spendy but it was worth the price!

light bit and always reliable.

What can I say When you get burnt out on other tobacco there is always your old friend captain black.that sweet cavandish and great room note never let's you down. Easy to pack and easy to smoke.love it

good old captain black, its a lil spendy but its worth it

Very nice room note. Great aroma and taste. Not very forgiving, and gave me tongue bite if I wasn't careful. It is still a good value aromatic.

Smoked Captain Black for over35 years.There is no other like it!

Delicious Smoke!

Product was great as usual from you guys!

The aroma is smooth and relaxing.

Great!

great shipping fast tnx

My favorite and thus only purchased pipe tobacco to smoke in my Petersons, Savenelli, Baracinni and all my top pipes.

Although a bit pricey (the pouches), Capt Black is my choice from Pipes & Cigars. You can count on additional purchases from this pipe puffer. Just please make sure the supplier keeps it in stock. Okay?

Always the best for me.

I have smoked Captain Black for many years and will continue to use it, but I preferred the ability to buy bulk rather than packaged, usually bought 32 to 40 ounces at a time. I have to reorder more often.

You can never go wrong with Captain Black Original!

Captain Black Original has always been my fall back tobacco. It was my first tobacco that I ever smoked when I started smoking a pipe. I enjoy trying different blends of tobaccos and will always compare their taste and aroma to good old Captain Black.

Love it. I smoked Captain Black for 60 years. Have tried other brands over the years but always come back to Captain Black. I am however disappointed the company stopped offering it in bulk.

Captain Black Original lights well, smokes cool and has a very pleasant taste and aroma. I have smoked it daily for about 30 years and haven’t gotten tired of it.

My go-to, everyday tobacco. Always a good smoke. Mixture is great and the tobacco just moist enough.

Been smoking it for years. I have tried others but keep coming back to Captain Black. I like the original best.

Smooth, and cool. The only pipe tobacco my wife will allow in the house.

I've been smoking Captain Black Original since 1977 and I won't smoke anything but.

Great tobacco, especially for a more "common" selection. I highly recommend this for the new smoker who is looking for a smoke that captures that stereotypical "pipe tobacco" taste and aroma.

I very much enjoy Captain Black Original. The taste is very good, the smoke is cool and complete. If you prefer something sweet then it is definitely worth a try, although for the money I think there are better options. This is why it only gets 3 stars from me. In pouch form the moisture content is all over the board. I have had some that were perfect, some that were drowned in liquid, and some that were so dry it literally crumbled in my fingers. I haven't had the notion to buy a tin yet, simply because of the price. When the moisture content is right, it is a fantastic smoke. When the moisture is off though, there is definite taste of synthetic or fake flavorings. Does tend to bite a little bit if you're a heavy puffer, which I am. I believe everyone should at least try Captain Black original, because when it's right, its right. Because of the high cost and Russian roulette of moisture, it only gets 3 stars from me.

I wish you had this in bulk

Simply the best.

Nothing beats an original!

Much better website & Delvery system.

A little on the dry side but still nice.

My husband will not smoke anything else.

Great prices and fast delivery

Good aroma. Burns well.

My preferred pipe tobacco.

This is by far my most favorite tobacco with a pleasant flavor. My neighbors know when I am outside by the pleasing smell.

Not as good as thebulk Capt. Black I bought for years.

Love it

Good price and quick service. I have been smoking Captain Black for 25 years. It has a mild flavor and very pleasant aroma. I am very pleased with Pipes and Cigars.

This is the tobacco that got me interested in pipes. Way back when smoking was allowed indoors a customer at a restaurant where I worked told me what he was smoking. I loved the aroma, so I remembered Captain Black. Decades later I had moved on to a variety of obscurely names tobaccos, but recently decided to return to the beginning. Captain Black is still great stuff. Not too fancy, but great.

Everybody loves the aroma

My brand for many years

What more is there to say?

My all time favorite.

Easily one of the better casual tobaccos for an evening pipe. I would recommend the 12oz if you do happen to enjoy a smoke regularly. This blend is smooth, just a hint of caramel and burns evenly. My new go-to tobacco for sure.

Been smoking C .B. for about twenty years tried others but always went back to good old Captain Black just a great smoke Arthur.

Perfectly balanced.

Love

Mild, nice easy smoke

My husband has used bought nothing else for years.

best pipe tobacco by far

I had the cherry before this one, so I'm pleased the flavor wasn't used to hide anything. This tobacco is phenomenal.

I am new to the pipe smoke arena and of the few tobaccos I have smoked, Captain Black is so far the best. I would highly recommend this blend for any new smoker. It has a wonderful room and pouch note and doesn't leave a nasty after taste.

What more can I say than the title, this is my all-time reliable favorite tobacco, it never lets me down. Early morning, late at night, all day long... it tastes wonderful, smells wonderful (even for non-smokers) and leaves the office smelling like grandpa's workshop. Not too sweet, not too dry, not too wet - just perfect for me!

Very easy to order. Shipment was exactly when they said and product was not damaged. 5 stars!

This is the King of pipe tobacco. One cannot top the smoothness of the smoke and the pleasant lingering aroma that this jewel leaves behind. I received a smoking jacket and a Hugh Heffner mask due to the fact that my wife loved it so.much.

favorite

Captain black has been my favorite ever since the late 70s when I started smoking my pipe it has a good Rich Bland your Roma fills the air my wife loves it I like Captain black I stick with it as long as they keep making it

Only the best

Great smoke quick delivery wish you sold in bulk

Mild and flavorful.

Have shopped Pipes and Cigars off and on for years. You can't go wrong on anything they offer, including Captain Black Original! 🙂👍

If I only had one tobacco, I could have this. Except that it is 4x as much as comparable tobaccos like Lane RLP-6.

CB has/is always a great back up tobacco. Taste great and room note is awesome! Burns nice!

My go to brand!

One of my two favorites

good

My favorite. Has always been. Nice burn and smells great. Smooth

I have been smoking Captain Black for years. Yours is the freshest by far

Captain Black is my favorite because I enjoyed the sweetness, flavor, and room note. I recommend it without any resevations.

Original is enjoyable, but Royal and Cherry are preferred.

Captain Black has been my choice of tobacco for about 30 years. It is great and I hope the company goes back into production soon.

Tasty

Great smoke, it has been my goto for 40 years.

Best of the packaged Cavendish

Very satisfied!

Used for years. Very smooth

satisfied with last order

Basically my go to everyday choice.

Best of the Old School Cool!

i have used captain black reg for 30 yrs at least. i have been buying it from you for a long time and am very disappointed that i cant get it in bulk. i have recently found someone else to buy from IN BULK dont know for how long but glad to find it in bulk sorry captain black took it away from you COMPLAIN for us

I am smoking it for almost 40 years.What else is new.

My favorite. Always fresh and delivered quickly. Priced right!

smoked it for years, always is a great smoke.

CB delivers a decent smoke throughout the day.

It provides a pleasurable smoke which others seem to enjoy.

The good standby tobacco anytime and rich in taste.

Good flavor, very smooth

Light and smooth.

Love the tobacco but wish it were offered in bulk.

My all time favorite smoke.

Always quality tobacco.

Very good.

Outstanding experience! Product even arrived two days sooner than expected.

Always good and moist. Smells like vanilla cookies. My husband lights his pipe and you can see the people enjoying the smell.

Hi I think it is a nice blend of tobacco I also recently bought a can of Captain Black Gold and what I did was I mixed it to together 50/50 mix and it seems like I've reached the Perfect Blend for myself by doing that just a nice aromatic smoke. I've always liked to experiment on my own a little bit by doing stuff like that but I really enjoy the two products looking forward to trying some different ones in the near future thanks for your service.

This is my go to tobacco. It's never wet, and never a tongue biter . Always burns clean.

Yes catian black mix with borgrif whiskey gives a sweet arom smell best price ever ok. Will order all my cigats pip tob from u truly thank u

Great anytime

Nice aromatic for this beginner pipe smoker.

OK...Here it is. Vanilla is my favorite aromatic. I've tried them all and the only one that delivers is Cap't Black original. None of the other brands that advertise vanilla are even close ! I once tried Sutliff "vanilla royale " which boasted 14 different types of vanilla . It might have been ok if they had actually put some them in the tobacco ! Instead I got a bowl of tasteless fire . After 3 bowls of this stuff over 2 days,I just dumped the bag in the trash. If you want vanilla,just buy Cap't. Black original . Don't waste your money on bland ,hot imitations.

Great smoke used it fior 20 years

All captain black brands are my favorite. They have a great aroma to them and they burn well.

A little to stout for me but it still is a good smoke.

Fav.

Good product.

Great stuff all the way around

All are good smokes I enjoy and would recommend

It is a Captain Black!

This is my after supper smoke. During the day I smoke Prince Albert and Sir Walter Raleigh regular. I alternate every other day. But after supper I switch pipes and smoke Captain Black original while I watch T.V. And read my Tom Clancy books. I don't care what anyone says and I have no time for snobbery. I like this tobacco, and I do not taste chemicals or any other nonsense. Like I said in Tobacco reviews.com,,, Captain Black has been around for over 50 years, and it's still selling truck loads of the stuff! Lane Limited is one of the most respected blending houses in the world putting out a lot of different blends and even Resurrected old blends discontinued. To me, Captain Black is #1!

The best tobacco .

I have been smoking Captain Black (regular) for perhaps 40 years so I do like it, but recently it seems to have changed since the company has been sold. I would like to find a similar blend that I would enjoy more.

My favorite pipe tobacco.

This is my husband's favorite tobacco. I will be ordering more.

I buy for my boyfriend who smokes a pipe. Very smooth, mild and enjoyable. Burns smoothly as well. HE mixes both Captain Black Original and Captain Black Cherry for just the right mix and smells wonderful. PS when I was a little girl, my grandpa smoked a pipe and Captain Black was what he smoked too.

This is now my favorite every day tobacco

Once you've tried the Captain, you won't have to look any further! The best.

Fav

Love it

Your Customer Service department is FANTASTIC!

My tobacco of choice for many years. Smooth, very little (if any) bite. Just a great smoke. To replace this blend with a substitute would be criminal.

Yes, I am enjoying it. Wanted something a bit 'darker' and this fits the bill. A good smoke.

If you don't find Lane RLP-6 available.. then you pay a bit more for this convenient pouch version with a bit more PG in it.. it is all good to me... tasty Virginia, burley and black cavendish mix...

Been using same tobacco for many years. Still enjoy it

Nice smoke

I have been smoking a pipe for over (50) years...as you can imagine, I’ve tried a lot of tobacco...but never Captain Black Original...it’s da’ best!!!.. yet

A perennial favorite- “never a bite in the bowl”

Love my tobacco. My brand for over 40 years!!!!

Captain Black Original (Regular) is an excellent tobacco. Mild to smoke, wonderful flavor and aroma. It is hard to find another tobacco as good.

After much sampling, Captain Black is my favorite.

Excellent tobacco

The only brand that I smoke, it’s smooth and flavorful.

Excellent, my only favorite.

Fantastic tobacco if you're getting started. I prefer the Captain Black Gold over the original and even the Royal, so if you enjoy the original, i recommend the Gold!

Prompt. And reasonable pricing.

Great price here at Pipes and Cigars. Super fast shipping

I have been smoking a pipe for a wee bit over 60 years. Coming from Scotland my early years was rife with British and European mixtures. Once ensconced in the US back in the early 60s, I enjoyed trying everything Uncle Sam had to offer. Captain Black original has been my favourite for decades and buying it by the canister makes for a grand value. Slainte mhath. Donald

A very nice, smooth all-day tobacco. Very similar to Lane 1-Q. I experienced no tongue bite with Captain Black Regular and enjoyed the whole bowl full. Recommend just "sipping" this and all tobaccos to prevent tongue bite and to savor the nuances of the tobacco. Highly recommended and available almost everywhere.

The original Captain Black helped me with my transition from cigarettes to pipes. It has an intoxicating room note but the flavor is a bit sour for me. I also get tongue bite from it which is probably due to bad packing practices on my part. I still keep some around when I want that Captain Black taste.

smoking it for a long time the best

This brand has always been excellent and acceptable while getting compliments on the aroma.

what johnny,lookin for an old friend who wont let you down when decide you want to be cool and smoke a pipe like sherlock homes,captin black regs is the true time tested way to get what is most as expected, its be around for years,they must do this a ok,best wishes captin ron over and out

Satisfyingly smooth

Liked both,preferred capt.Black. More balanced and mellow. Borkum Riff stronger and richer, but slightly harsh.

Great smoke. Several people have commented that this tobacco smells awesome. Smoked this year's ago and it is the same great smoke today.

I don’t care what the snobs have to say, this has been my favorite tobacco for the past 35 years!

best thing at the gas station

Always consistently good. Most important for me is the cut: allows for a steady, slow burn and an easy draw.

The best....bar none

Nice, mellow smoke. Very enjoyable.

Very pleased with the product and the delivery thank you

Just too easy

The best out there. Smoked it all and I still come back to this smoke. Nothing satisfies like that Charleston blend.

This isn't going to blow your doors off with all the great flavor but when all you want is quality tobacco that offers some very good basic flavors you don't have to think about to taste then this is your ticket. I smoke this more often when I want a pipe but can't totally decide what I feel like smoking. It burns well, is a little moist when first opened, but burns to a white ash and doesn't leave any moisture or goop in the bowl. Has a very light vanilla topping that isn't overly sweet or heavy handed, very mellow and just enough to let you know it's there and gives a great room note that even non-smokers will like.

First pipe tobacco I tried, and one I think is the best.

My husband LOVES this.

Packs, lights and burns very well. Awesome aromatic! Taste is spot on. No tongue bite if u smoke little fast. Great for all day smoking .

good

Over 40 years. I still get comments on its aroma.

Tast us great. Smell is fabulous the price is wonderful.

A nice cool smoke. A pleasant aroma that will offend no one.

I’ve been smoking pipes for 55 years, and I have tried many tobacco brands. I always come back to Captain Black original. It has a great scent, never bites, and people always compliment the aroma and ask what brand it is. Simply the best there is.

I enjoy this tobacco more than many higher priced tobacco. It always seems to be the one I gravitate back to.

Very good customer service ,good products and affordable prices , fast delivery , holiday deals and promotions

I have been smoking a pipe since my college days. That was a long time ago. Through the years I have tried different blends of tobacco, but I keep coming back to Captain Black. It is now my standard. I may try others, but I always have Captain Black available.

Has been one of my favorites for many years. No bite and a very nice aroma.

User friendly, quick shopping, great product. Will definitely order again!

Prompt delivery, was exactly what I ordered. Will re-order.

I've smoked Captain Black for many years, it's my choice of tobacco .

Always received quality products at a great price. Will continue to shop at P&C.

Dealing with Pipes and Cigars I find great. My order comes quickly and I feel the prices are good also. Plus they have a huge amount of selections. The only thing I have to comment about is the 12 oz can of Captain Black Oringinal came without a plastic cover. I solved that with a cover from a 12oz can of Half and Half I had orderd and finished previously. Please tell the senders to make sure theres a cover on the can they send. Thank you. Enjoy doing business with you.

Folks like the way this blend smells. This keeps me from being thrown out of a lot of places!

Great tobacco

My favorite pipe tobacco fir over 40 years.

great tobacco at a great price

Recommend vendor!

Just started back smoking a pipe, have always smoked Captain Black in the past. It's one of the best I've used.

Great 👍

Easy to find and always consistently tasty. Some chain stores overcharge for the stuff, but I imagine that has to do with how little they sell to the general tobacco consuming market. A dark and richly flavor without much bite and just the right amount of sweet. Not my absolute favorite smoke, but considering it's availability, price-point, and consistency -- I'd recommend this blend to any new piper.

Been smoking it for a long time. Though I like to try others, I always keep this on hand.

I have been smoking CB since 1969. I think that you could say that I am satisfied with the brand.

I've ordered both and the 1lb bags and 12 oz tins. The bag wasn't nearly as fresh or flavorful. Catch the tins on sale and stock up. Can't beat P&C prices or service, but, will stick with the tins, and can't blame P&C for issue of freshness/flavor. Will pay a little or for the tin

The only kind I use

Excellent smoking tobacco. Great taste and smell.

it was and is my favorite tobacco

I've been smoking original since its existance. Love it above all others.

captain black is always my first choice.

This is an all day smoke that is satisfying with a pleasant room note and never a bite. In fact, I’m having a bowl right now.

I like the black Cavendish, vanilla and fruit undertones. Smells great within pouch, burns well, never hot and does not gurgle. It does not leave a messy bowl. It leaves a very pleasant room note.

Very light all day kinda smoke. The Virginia’s and burley come through the most with typical flavors of grass, hay and dried fruit while the vanilla cavendish adds a subtle sweetness to the whole mix. A very light and balanced blend. Well rounded with no rough edges. In recent years, they’ve stopped adding so much topping and humectant. Not only did it make the tobacco worse but I’m sure it was more costly to produce. The complaints people had years ago about CB being goopy and to heavily cased are long gone. If you just won’t something light and easy that won’t sit you on your arse then this is a pretty solid pick. You can gently puff on this all day with no problems. One of the few tobacs that I’ve considered buying a can of.

I found Captain Black original to be light, but enjoyable. It wasn’t too aromatic and didn’t bite at all. This would be a great all day smoke.

Still great after all these years

Have been smoking this for years. Very enjoyable.
