Lane 1-Q

Nice stuff: a pleasant, all-day long kind of stuff. Others have said much more, I am just adding another 5-star review. I think it would be great for someone trying pipes for the first time and wanting to do better than the stuff at the drug store. Good service from P & Cs, however the 1-oz. bags I have received to date have been dry. I added a piece of fresh orange peel to the bag, which moisturized the tobacco nicely,and added a subtle citrus hint.

Very good. Smooth and lite.

Smooth, no bite, a little swet could use something that gives it a little complexity

Very good will buy more

Class Lane 1 - Q.... you simply can't go wrong with this tobacco.

Hard to believe this is the best-selling bulk tobacco in America. Entirely fine ribbons, like cigarette tobacco. Too moist and sticky, takes forever to dry. Smells like caramel. A little hot.

great flavor and aroma, I'll be getting some more soon...

I would buy this in more bulk if I could tastes very subtle and no harsh burning taste would recommend this to first time pipe smoker

Very pleasant aromatic smoke.

Excellent smoke. No bite and great aroma in room. Spouse has quit jacking me up for smoking in my office. Numerous favorable comments from associates.

This stuff is just horrible. No taste, just bland as bland can be. I dont see why there is great reviews.

I've shared this blend with all my friends over the holidays and it has definitely been a hit. This is a smooth blend that can be enjoyed by anyone over a variety of tastes and preferences. Will buy again!

A great mild mellow tobacco

Leaves a nice aroma. Everyone loves the smells emitted but I find the experience boring and one dimentional. I like full flavored english blends. Thought I would try this old favorite. Just not my style but for those that like aros probably great. Millions that enjoy it cant be wrong.

This is my go to tobacco! Love the smell the taste!

wow. I bought this based on the reviews. This stuff is bland. Has zero taste, no aroma from the bag or room note. Taste gets worse the further down you smoke the bowl. I will never buy this again

Pleasant smoke. Not what I smoke very often but if you want something really mild that reminds us older guys of their Dad, and that's not a bad thing, this is the one.

Light and well blended.

my favorite so far...very,very good.

Ordered up a four ounce little bag of this 1-Q Lane stuff just to give it a shot again. It was probably mid to late 90's last time I smoked some 1-Q. Recall it having more strength in the taste/aroma department. Still was Okay but wondered if maybe Lane has ' Backed Off ' their 1-Q over the years, , , , , Money Saving -- Profit Increasing measure ?? ??

This has been my favorite all day smoke for the past twelve years. I always keep a bunch of this on hand as it never gets old, and I keep falling in love with this blend every time I smoke it! Cool as a cucumber and no bite whatsoever. Wonderful flavor and even better room notes. Every time I smoke this, people (and more importantly, my wife) say they love the way it smells, and I do too!

I loved it..I almost pick up a plum taste to it but very faint. Very nice first pipe smoke ever! I typically smoke hookah and i love the mild smoke and this just made a huge impression on me! I mean nothing to wash or put together! Great for after work smoke! I love it and this tobacco has captured my attention for sure! I will keep this tobacco on stock. Mild, flavorful, and plum sweetness which is not overbearing at all!

I truly enjoyed my 1st lane 1Q. But, it reminded me alot of Ole Shenandoah #76, which I like a little more. Great value, good smoke!

I have two go-tos in my rotations, Prince Albert, and this stuff. I try other things on occasion, from flake tobacco, to English blends. This stuff goes great with coffee. For those just starting out, or even you serious smokers, I highly recommend this blend...

It's bright, cheerful, I get vanilla from it; I love the smell. It burns nicely and the room note is sweet. It turns a rain day in my garage to a bright sunny day!

It's not a classic for nothing. Very good smoke

Great aromatic, just what I was looking for. Nice all day smoke, cool, no-bite and a bargain!

Been smoking my pipe(s) for less than 1 year, (March 2016), so take any advice I give with a can of beer er 2! I tried a quite a few different brands, of course checked on "best tobaccos for a newbie" on line, for THE tobacco to use. One every ravd about was 1Q. Could not be more correct! Never had a bad smoke with 1Q. I have a habit of, "puff, puff,puff" when I working, so I do get some tongue bite. (Pilot error to be sure)! With that being said, also when I'm fly fishing, (relaxing), and smoke it the way your supposed to, it's aleways great! Great taste, my spouse says good room aroma, (I also like the smell of my clothes afterward)!! Try it you'll like it! Joe

Delicious, order it and see why it is the best selling aromatic

This is my everyday go to, smells great, taste great, it's what i compare all other tobacco to.

This blend grows on me. It burns perfectly and some tobacco flavor comes through. It's earthy too.

This is a very nice smoking tobacco that is a good staple for an everyday smoke. Better in the bulk then in the tin in my opinion.

There's a reason, as P&C says, that this is the No. 1 selling pipe tobacco - because it's damn delicious, particularly after a good meal. When you see 1-Q, just think "of first quality".

I am a female pipe {closet} smoker. I use Lane Q-1 as a base for my own personal blend. This is so great a tobacco it goes well with everything, OR anything goes well with it. Recently I over blended...uck! Lessoned learned. I have had folks over to taste my little tobac lab. Anyway, With Russ special touch and my "lets try this" it is "Smoked Art". Anyway....I love this site and do all my tobacco shopping here. P.S My gene pool is a pipe. My father was eccentric and had a collection of pipes that would draw gratitude and tears. I am my father daughter! Light Up!

As a newbie it tastes great and the aroma is wonderful. Bought this after reading all the reviews and I must say they aren't wrong.

Great taste, smooth. When I was a boy, my father would come home from work and hang his jacket in the closet. Shortly after I would be in there to take in that wonderful aroma. This is it.

I am never disappointed with 1-Q. I always have some on hand.

Tastes and smells great. This is what I take to the smoking area at work. I often get compliments on the aroma. If you're going to be around people when you smoke, this is a very good choice.

I have heard so much about this blend . So I ordered 5 ounces to try . That's more than usual to try . My only regret is that wasn't enough. Not to moist out of the bag. Burned Great not a lot of relight. Good flavor and this will definitely be in my everyday Rotation.. if you have not had it buy a couple ounces . Trust me you will enjoy it . Shawn. Pa

Not only did I taste the vanilla it left a nice aroma my Co workers enjoy

Excellent aromatic! I have smoked a few other aromatics and never really cared for them. I always felt like I was getting my tongue tattooed. When I smoked Lane 1-Q it was completely bite free from the top of the bowl to the bottom. Great smoke. I would definitely recommend.

This is a near perfect aromatic. Mix two parts of it with one part properly dried molto dolce and you have a masterpiece

Another 4lb ordered and delivered! For the price you get a great smoking tobacco here. Since I tried 1q, it's really all I smoke anymore. I enjoy this blend out of a well broken in cob. Smokes cool, with a nice warm & sweet tobacco and nutty flavor. For the price, you needs to try this at least once! Might surprise you.

I enjoy the mildness of this tobacco. The taste is nice and subtle. I enjoy the aroma on my beard when I'm done smoking a bowl of this splendid tobacco. It smokes cool and stays lit. Great choice for a every day smoke. Next I'll try Lanes BCA.

I am NOT an aromatic fan. Having said that, this tobacco is literally a work of art. It is sweet enough to satisfy your sweet tooth, yet allows the taste of the tobacco, mostly Virginia, to come through. It doesn't have that sweet, goopy, chemical taste that is associated with so many other aromatics. It doesn't "ghost" a pipe, although I would suggest a cob or a pipe set away for smoking aromatics. It has no discernible bite but any tobacco, if smoked too fast will bite. I bought this out of curiosity, wanting to see why it was so popular. I am glad I did and I will buy more. It's reputation is well deserved.

It's exactly what it says it is and quality from P&C. Maybe its me, but I was expecting more from it with all the 5 star reviews. Still a very pleasant smoke and had a good albeit mild flavor.

I tried other blends but 1Q is always smooth with no bite. It has a softer room note that others and no after taste. I enjoy it more so I'm sticking with it.

Better bulk then in the tin I think regardless best smoke in the world

I have resumed pipe smoking after a thirty year hiatus. I sought out old favorites: Carey Classic Black Aromatic, Escudo, and Erinmore. (My tastes are all over the place, eh?) I started reading online reviews and pipe tobacco catalogs. I noted a lot of comment on the wonders of Lane 1-Q. I had not even heard of it in my previous foray, thirty years ago, so I had to try some. The tin promptly arrived -- thank you. I smoked a couple of bowls bowl. Yep. For a reasonably light aromatic, it is a most enjoyable smoke. The wife doesn't like the smell. Oh well. I apologize for the puerile nature of this review, but I'm not conversant with the various terms and definitions. I'm still trying to figure out what YABO means..... Anyway, thank you for your wonderfully edifying catalogs.

It was everything you and Lane touted it to be with the added characteristic of an occasional mild bite. Maybe two or three times in a pipeful. Just enough to wake you up and remind you your smoking a pipe. That said, I'm pretty sure it will become part of my "daily". To that end you'll see a couple of pounds on my next order.

Great dependable service

Got exactly what l ordered and the speed of delivery was fantastic.

It's really good. Smell is amazing, nice smoke, no tongue bite, great price.

It was way too moist and it would sturate the filter after 2-3 bolws. I think that is why it really had a nasty bite to it. Price was good, but I guess water is cheaper than tobacco.

The 1-Q by Lane is a delightful aromatic blend that brings complements in the very few places where one can smoke in public. However, as delightful as it is to olfactory organs of the people around you, it does have a bit of a bite on the tip of the tongue.

I had previously purchased Lane 1-Q from Pipes & Cigars and just like the first order, it arrived promptly and well-packaged. Rather than review Lane 1-Q, which I enjoy very much (mild yet still flavorful with no bite and a pleasant aroma), I would rather focus on Pipes & Cigars, a company that has a great selection, presents it well on its Website, and has top-notch customer service. I had sent a question about a butane lighter a while back and got a response within 24 hours. They run their business the way it should be run and I can promise that if you order from them once, you will become a repeat customer.

It's my go to, all day smoke.

I tried 1-Q for the first time today. To set the scene, it was mid-morning on a 70 degree day without a cloud in the sky. I dropped the kids off at preschool and picked up a cup of coffee. I got home, packed up a bowl in my Brog Dyktator with 9mm filter, and sat on the front porch to enjoy the country morning. 1-Q is a bite-free medium blend with a taste/note that reminded me of my Father's pipes from when I was a child. I had the house to myself, so I kicked back in my rocker with the dog at my feet, relaxed, and did some deep thinking. I would descried the taste as thought-provoking and uplifting. It went great with my coffee and put a smile on my face. I may have found a new favorite.

I felt compelled to write this review as a former cigar smoker and very new pipe smoker. After putting in more hours of research than I care to admit on what tobaccos to start with I settled on Lane BCA. I have put 6 bowls into BCA and even after air drying it out for 12 hours (it showed up with small water droplets in the bag) I couldn't keep it lit, I am talking a dozen relights or more per bowl. I started blaming my packing job and pipe choice, and getting very frustrated with the process until I got Lane 1-Q! Amazing room note, great taste, minimal bite, no after taste and most importantly easy to light and stays lit! Only two relights for my first bowl of it and finally found the enjoyment in pipe smoking I was looking for! Not saying BCA is bad, just not up to my beginner skill level yet I guess. Bottom line, if you are a new pipe smoker looking for a great aromatic to start with you have to buy an ounce of this to try, simply amazing!

Delish, just as described. Will buy again and again and again ana...

I find Lane 1Q a very satisfying tobacco and quite mild. I periodically order it in conjunction with other tobaccos and after comparison it comes out very well. Its also an excellent buy.

great stuff. nice and sweet. cool. any time smoke. very tasty caramel and vanilla flavors. this is in my top 5 fav tobaccos.

Great tobacco, Great price, great service, what more could you ask for? Smoked Captain Black regular for years, but this tobacco has taken it's place. Try it if you are a Captain Black fan, you will not regret it!

Burns cool, no bite, tastes good, can actually taste and smell rhe flavoring, cheap price, readily available, the only aromatic I will smoke these days

It’a great for a aromatic; however in the meantime I have come to like the english type or non aromatic. 1-Q is great for a queit time at the middle of day; it’s smooth and no bite; love the cavendish in it. I think I have bought maybe three pounds of it already. Lee

Having recently picked up a pipe again and having been formerly subject in my early years to whatever the mall tobacco store was selling, I am so thoroughly pleased with this. I will definitely reorder. The price to quality is excellent. Thanks.

Best I've ever smoked ! My Favorite !

GOOD PIPE SMOKING, WILL LAST FOR SOMETIME. I KEEP IN REFREGERATOR, WRAPPED IN PLASTIC.

Excellent for all day smoke - flavor never gets old. Will defenitly buy again ..

Just received my 4lb order. Very happy with the delivery time and quality of this tobacco. In my opinion, this 1q needs to be smoked out of a corn cob to fully appreciate the flavors. This is my every day smoke and have no plans on quitting. Thank you!

smooth and light... reminds me of a tobacco i would get back in the 70's

I love Lane 1-Q I buy it 5 lbs at a time and I smoke 20 lbs of it a year but this last 5 lbs bag had a lot of big stems and chunks in it that's why I put just 2 stars. Some one should have seen that befor shipping it out.

Regardless if I purchase a pipe or tobacco, your customer services is by far the best thing since slice bread. Keep up the great work and thank you all again, Michael Weston

This tobacco is very smooth and smokes great, I have been smoking it for many years

There is no wondering why this is the best selling pipe tobacco. Great smoke.

I am just putting my review here to bring a level of subjectivity to the an aromatic that does not deserve 5 stars. I have smoked 1 Q and would not put it anywhere near the top half of aromatic offerings. I realize it has its fans, but this is a blend with a noticeable chemical presence. The topping is heavy enough to mask, what is most likely, quality leaf that lies underneath. When compared to similar flavored aromatics from C&D, Peter Stokkebye, CAO and Drew Estate among many others, I find 1Q incredibly lackluster. I am putting 3 stars on this out of respect for my friends who love this. It would be down to 2 stars if it were just reflecting my own taste.

First time pipe smoker, very first pipe tobacco - however when I opened the tin the smell of this tobacco reminded me of Fig newton cookies, smoke was very pleasant not over powering and left a nice sweet aroma in my corn cob pipe afterwards. Will continue to buy and smoke.

What can I say? Lane's lines of tobacco are quite good and I jump around between them from sampler bag to sampler bag. The quality is consistent and always good. I think with Lane's tobacco it isn't whether or not you will like it, just which one you will like best;) I found the 1-Q a great smoke, not too overpowering, very little tongue bite, and a great room note. I would highly recommend.

Great taste and smell, i love it!!

I'm new to the world of pipe tobacco and this was the right tobacco to start with. Sadly I'm having a hard time finding anything else that compares.

very smooth,doesn't bite and good for beginners will be getting more

Being a newbie, Lane I-Q was a nice welcome to the pipe-smoking community. My first bowl was very sweet, but now that the tobacco has dried a little it is a very pleasant smoke. No bite, no after-taste, and the room note is great.

Great room note and great taste. Tastes a little bit better then loose version of this. Wife approved.

I love the sweet flavor and aroma it has.

I also purchased Lane's Dark Red for the first time and now I can't decide which of these will become my 'pouch' blend.

Smooth mild. Not hot no bite. Sweet.

the best i’ve tried yet

Top's!

Q1 bulk is my is my every day go to,along with McClelland VBC. Very mild and nice flavor if you sip it. If you like aromatics,give it a try.You may like it.

Very good, I'm still try to determine my blend. I'm new to all this.

What a marvelous tobacco. This casual smoker tried in a MM cob, terrific room note and flavor. I am susceptible to tongue bite of which this had none. As sophisticated a tobacco as I would ever likely enjoy. Definitely will buy more.

Nice mellow smoke. Nothing special but that's good for the price and flavor.

Packs well, smokes well, tastes great! Love it

Tried a lot of different tobaccos and this one still tops them all. I mostly enjoy the last 1/4 of the bowl. Warm tasty goodness!

Lane 1-Q is excellent - mild, great taste, and nice aroma. I think this will be my favorite tobacco!

Lane 1-q is a quality mild-smoking tobacco that is just right for the novice as well as the seasoned smoker to have in his rotation.

It's summer 1967 and my Grandfather is sitting next to me. Yeah, it's that fab. Light, decent flavor and excellent aroma. No wonder its a staple. Can not go wrong with this fave.

was good

Great taste fairly mild. Location little to no bite.

This a a nice tobacco but after smoking Boswell's "Bear" this blend seems lame to me.

Thought I would give Lane 1-Q a try and have not regretted it. A pleasant flavor and aroma with no bite. I bought this as one of my favorite tobaccos doesn't have that pleasant of an aroma and wanted to end the nagging from my wife. Lane 1-Q solved the problem with my wife. She enjoys the smell and I enjoy the taste so all is well in my world.

Good tobacco but both times I have ordered the package has shown up on the very last day of the 3- 6 business day delivery.

1-Q is by far the best tobacco of its kind that I have smoked. Great flavor, smooth, cool burning. Very satisfying flavor, especially through the nose. This one is definitely part of my rotation.

As always P & C comes through. Lane 1-Q is unique and a smooth smoke

It's popular fore a reason. Such a smooth and delicious smoke. When my shipment arrived the bag was spilled out and dry and when I contacted p&c they immediately sent me a replacement bag of tobacco. That's why I almost exclusively shop p&c for my favorite of hobbies. I love pipesandcigars.com!

Got 2 I like now. 1-Q and BCA> I mix them together and there great. I will be purchasing more of both.

Best of the best

Just awesome. Best everyday tobacco on the market.

Can honestly say this is the best aromatic tobacco you can smoke.Every tobacco has some negatives,I can't find one in 1Q.If captain black Royal is good,than 1Q is great.I smoke this every morning,life is good after a bowl of this.Been the top selling bulk blend for decades,I can see why.Cannot beat the price for what you get.Buy this by the pound,you won't regret it.

Very mild and enjoyable. Will smoke more of it. AS Ohio

I've smoked Lane's 1-Q all of my pipe smoking life, as my father did before me. It's at the top of my list when I want an aromatic (i.e. anytime my bride is in the vicinity). I've always purchased it in bulk, but I now love the tins. I buy two at a time, one for now, and one to put back for a few years. I'm interested to see how these age. Pipe smoking is not a competition - so smoke what you like. And I like 1-Q in tins.

One fine smoking tobacco! Will always be in the rotation.

5 Stars.....the world standard for mild blend......smoked several times a day

Lane 1-Q was surprisingly aromatic with no back bite. A really nice tobacco and smooth smoke.

Alright so, I finally bit the bullet and wanted to see what all the fuss was about. I finally orders some L1Q. I waited patiently for it to arrive with a new Missouri Meerschaum 5th Ave Diplomat. Not going to lie, I was getting anxious. So, It gets here and I open the package and crack open a pouch of this stuff. At first whiff it smells pretty damn good. I grab a pinch to inspect the moisture level and its perfect. Im satisfied. So, with a manly grunt and nod I close the pouch up and set it down next to my pipe ready to smoke later. So im sitting there, minding my own business watching Netflix to pass the time before I head off to work and I go to scratch my nose and it hits me. This glorious sweet smell. It took about a full second for the cogs to start turning but it was the L1Q! Mannnnn did it make me salivate. So being the patient man I was I loaded a pipe to smoke in my car I vowed not to ever smoke in and headed to work. Apart from the FANTASTIC smell, it tasted great. A very mild smoke with no real heavy flavoring to coat your tongue for the entire day. Absolutely ZERO tongue bite. I know some of you more seasoned vets like a little but of bite with your smoke but I smoked that thing like a runaway steam engine and can't report any. In conclusion, (mind you this is only 1 full bowl in) I love the stuff so far. It came at the perfect moisture level and was tasty throughout the entire smoke sesh. It smells fantastic so, if you have loved ones around you when you smoke do them a favor and buy some of this stuff in bulk. They'll thank you later. 5 stars. 5 golden tobacco leaves. You've got to at least try and see what all the hype is about.

Lives up to it's reputation. Great smelling, Great tasting tobacco.

I'll keep it simple and just say that the last time I ordered this, I ordered a pound of it. Enough said.

At first, I wasn't so sure about this tobacco. However, halfway through the bowl, I really started to enjoy this smoke. It is a good everyday smoke.

A great buy for tobacco. It is mild and a "pouch" tobacco, one you could use any time. I am still looking for something a little more aromatic than this one BUT it is a very nice tobacco.

Too sweet for me straight up, but mixed a 7/1 blend, of 7 parts quality Virginia-Burley blend, to 1 part Lane 1-Q, and that did it for me. First few puffs, were a cool menthol-like sensation in vanilla, before the Virginias kicked in for a sweet caramel note. The middle third of the smoke reminded me of toasted coconut, but at one point (perhaps the drier Virginia/Burley had burned away, leaving the smoke treated Cavendish) I hit a almost euphoric sweet spot, that I would compare in sensation to my Mother’s Toll House cookies. The last third went from rich pecan pie, to maybe sugar maple smoke. No bad after taste. A most enjoyable smoking experience.

Very pleasant, a yummyness to it, sweet finish, a very tasty pleasant smoke. Not complex, a basic single flavor. The sweet finish is a nice touch without tasting like your smoking a bon bon.

As a long time Captain Black Regular smoker, I thought I would give 1Q a try. Great room note, very smooth smoking, and the price and service from Pipes and Cigars cannot be beat! I have found my new regular tobacco.

love this tobacco

Smooth, no bite, great aroma

Arrived on time, well packed and properly invoiced. Thanks for asking.

As usual. great service, delivery on time

I decided to try this blend since it seems that many folks advocate beginning smokers to start out with Lane 1-Q. I've been smoking a pipe off and on for about year. At first, I wasn't quite sure whether I liked it or not. However, by the time I got through half of the bowl, it grew on me. It does have a bit of a floral note to it and this seems to subside halfway through the smoke. I will continue to try this blend. It might become a part of my rotation.

Americas #1 bulk and deserving of so. toasted marshmallows, baking brownies, cotton candy, cappuccino, all things ive noted tasting, smelling when it comes to 1-q.burns cool and dosent gunk up the pipe

Just received another pound of Lane 1Q. Hadn't had it for awhile and almost forgot how good it is. I like to blend it with black Cavendish, usually 50/50 for a most delightful blend. It burns just right with the black Cavendish and the aromas of the two is quite pleasing to everyone. The taste is satisfying in that it is mild and 'bite free' but still has substance.I use Smoker's Pride or Super Value black Cavendish with Lane 1Q for an economical great blend.

I thoroughly enjoy smoking 1q.

Been smoking this blend for well over 15 years. It will always be my favorite.

...always a pleasure..

I love the variety of pipe tobaccos available and my preference is for non-aromatics--except for the 1-Q. This is my favorite and I can smoke it all day. I have not found another aromatic that I truly enjoy as they are all to cloying and hot and the flavors never seem to match the aroma. 1-Q has a wonderful aroma with subtle flavors and a cool smoke that even die-hard non-aromatic smokers will enjoy. Sit back, relax and try not to take life (or yourself) too seriously!

I have been trying for several years to find a tobacco that not only tastes good but does not burn up my mouth at the end of the day and I finally found in Lane 1Q.

Longtime(since 1966) pipe smoker. Just discovered Lane 1-Q recently and I rank it in my Top 3 aros. Great tobacco blend. Dan

Overall a nice mellow smoke with a great room note an no bite, I always have some on hand is an everyday smoke for me, an great customer service from P&C, orders always arrive on time usually 2 days...

I have ordered from P&C for several years & have yet to be disappointed! Best prices out there & great service! Thanks

Very glad to have Pipes and Cigars there to supply me with pipe tobacco. Living n the middle of the Pacific Ocean my options are limited at best. Not only does Pipes and Cigars have what I'm looking for but their prices are very competitive and their web site is easy to order from.

Outstanding.

Best Aromatic Pipe Tobacco at discount bulk prices, period. Pipe & Cigars shipping time is outstanding. Five stas all around.

Compared to what I normally smoke, the best of the rest, it's a better tobacco. If I'm willing to spend more, I will bulk purchase Lane 1-Q. It definitely holds up to its reputation. A kingly smoke, at a pauper' s price.

Lane I-Q is said to be the most popular pipe tobacco. The most popular ice cream flavor is vanilla. That is what this tobacco is, like a good vanilla ice cream. I purchased this with the idea that it would be a good blending tobacco for some of my too strong tobaccos and it will be very good for that.

This was the easiest way for me to get my favorite pipe tobacco. Everything was 100% and the tobacco arrived sooner than I expected. The tobacco was fresh and had all the flavor I was used to when I had to travel many miles to purchase it at a Edward's Pipe and Tobacco store. I am looking for a couple of new pipes and am going to trust Pipes And Cigars to sell me those pipes. THANKS!

I have tried many pipe tobaccos over the years, but I always come back to my favorite; Lane's 1-Q. 1-Q is a mellow comfortable smoke. Beyond being my personal favorite, I am constantly complimented on the aroma of this delightfully aromatic blend. Lastly, I can not expound on my favorite smoke without mentioning my favorite purveyor; Pipes&Cigars.com. I have pleasantly come to expect quick secure deliver and fresh tobacco without exception. I highly recommend Pipes&Cigars for all you pipe, cigar, and associated tools, lighters, humidors, and more.

Coffee and chocolate, no bite, wonderful room aroma. Will buy more.

Great service, price, and great bowl! I know where I’m buying my pipe tobacco from now on.

I'm new to pipe smoking and after reading many forums was pretty much required to try 1Q! You should too if you are getting started. It's not the first aromatic I tried, but it was one of the most pleasant. Flavor is great, no tongue bite, and room note heavenly. Smoked in a Missouri Meershaum Washington

As many others have said, this is simply delicious. A great first time pipe smoker's buy and a nice mellow smoke any time of the day.

Great tobacco

Great tobacco. Excellent service. Timely delivery. Good price

The tobacco burns evenly with no bite. I could smoke it all day. The hint of vanilla has a pleasant taste, but it needs a little more. It leaves a very nice aroma in the room.

I'm a noobie pipe smoker but 1Q is the best aromatic I've had to date. Smooth and flavorful.

The best tobacco ever for experienced smokers and beginners.

1Q lives up to it's reputation as one of the most flavorful, smooth and aromatic pipe tobacco around. Couldn't bite if it had to. Only problem I have is the 1 lb bag it was shipped in was very thin and cheap. Had holes in it when I received.

Smooth, no bite taste. I generally blend this with sweet tobacco to sooth the tongue bite.

I've been smoking cigars for over a year now and am really not a fan of flavored sticks like the Acid line by Drew Estate. They're not bad, just not for me. That said this is my first pipe tobacco and I loved it. It's definitely mild on flavor and the majority of the "experience" is on the retro-hale. It's got a deep rich vanilla accented by a slight spice similar to cinnamon. The nicotine effect definitely kicks in around the 20 minute mark and lasts a little while after you finish the bowl, If I were comparing it to a cigar, I'd say it's mild-medium in strength. All in all a really smooth blend, not a lot of tobacco flavor, and it definitely smells/tastes better smoked than it did out of the bag. If you're new to pipes and want to try an aromatic this would be a great to start with, or if you enjoy aro's and are looking for something sweet and vanilla like.

This tobacco is the first pipe tobacco that I ever smoked. The aroma is absolutely fantastic! It is a mild smoke with a touch of sweetness. Tastes like vanilla, caramel, and how burnt sugar smells(in a good way). It is a must for beginners!

Of the 6 to 8 brands I have tried from Pipes and Cigars, I like Lane 1-Q the best. It is mild to the mouth, burns nicely and has a fine aroma. Second choice is Scotty's Trout Stream.

Just the right amount of mellow. Smells nice in and out of the bag and after light.

I have heard all the rave reviews and had to try it for myself. For once a aromatic thats taste matches its smell. Burns great and a great price to.

This is the stuff right here! When I was young this was the tobacco I would smell whenever someone was smoking a pipe. I thought all pipe tobacco smelled like this but I guess everyone I encountered smoked this. And for good reason! It's awesome! Tastes as good as it smells both before it's lit and after. This gets my highest recommendation for sure!!

One of the mildest, best tasting aromatics out there. My wife really likes the aroma and I do as well. The smoke is cool and has a subtle sweetness. The more I smoke this tobacco, the better I like it.

Yep. If you like aromatics this is one of the best. Just tried about a month ago and one of my favorites now. I'll leave the technical descriptions up to others, just suffice it to day you won't be disappointed.

Smooth and sweet.

Lane 1-Q is an excellent tobacco for me. Easy smooth smoke. Pipes and Cigars has the best price on tobacco than company I've found. Thank you!!

It's abundantly clear why so many love it. Lane 1-Q never fails to satisfy and provide an entirely enjoyable smoking experience. Not to mention the fact that I continually hear, "Is somebody making brownies?" I don't plan on letting myself run out of it, that's for sure. Thanks P&C, you all know how to Take Care of Business!

This was solid from start to finish. No complaints. You are going to have a hard time finding better for the price.

As a pipe smoker since 1971 and a fan of Stokkebye's Nouget for the last eight years I finally decided to find a replacement for the Nouget with the bite and burn I came to hate. I found my perfect aromatic in Lane's I-Q! A fantastic flavor lightly sweet with a coco/Nouget taste and mild after-taste that is both satisfying and flavorful without being overwhelming and most important: No bite, no burn! I can smoke this all day and night with no complaint at all. To me this is the best areomatic I've ever had. Every pallet is different but give this a try!

This stuff is one of my favorites. It's a mild and tasty anytime smoke. It is great for just chillin' out on the patio anytime of the year.

My favorite tobacco, smokes great nice aroma with no bite.

a very tasty blend that others enjoy the smell of. very strong though, the kind that burns your tongue if you smoke too much too fast.

Lane 1- Q is my favorite everyday smoke, always the same blend everytime I purchase a new bag.

Good stuff right here. Smooth good tasting smoke. I like 1Q right out the pouch, or sometimes with a healthy dose of black cavendish blended with it. If I were limited to just a coupla blends, 1Q would likely be one of them! But, since I'm not limited to just a coupla blends, I've made a conscious decision to always have some 1Q on hand!

Bought this for my Husband to try, he loves it! We will be ordering this from now on!!! Thank you!

Smells great as soon as I opened it, burns cool taste is awesome, just bought more love it.

1Q is great. Its smooth no bite with an excellent room note. I could smoke it all day.

There is a reason why: "This mixture has been the largest selling bulk pipe tobacco in the United States for decades." IT WORKS. It is smooth as a smoke and softly sweet, but strong enough, too. I like using it as a component added to my Desk Mix, made up of all sorts of stuff that happens to be laying around.

I've smoked pipe off and on for about 3 years. Its really hard not to like this one if, 'you are just getting into pipe smoking'. Even now having tried dozens of different tobaccos - this one is in my top 3. It can be an every day smoke. If you are looking for something new, or if you are trying to find a tobacco as a gift look no further.

good product fast service

My husband loves this tobacco and it arrived two days earlier than expected.

If you like aromatics, this cannot be overlooked. Lane 1-Q is now one of my all time favs. Just re-ordered.

COOL AND PLEASANT AROMA

Very nice and mellow, just a hint of vanilla in the background. Don't smoke it after a heavy latakia blend, you wont taste a thing.

i love lane 1-q

Great stuff! Definitely will buy again!

Awesome tobacco ! Buy some and see for urselfs

This is an infamous vanilla blend. It's good. Lane 1-Q is better than Captain Black Royal. The vanilla is a bit more prominent.

I got what I ordered and it came on time. Just as I knew it would. Have a good day.

I'm a new pipe smoker and some of the other blends have been a little harsh to get used to, but this is a very smooth smoke with no tongue bite that I have noticed.

Love the smell!! I'm not particularly fond of pipes but I got this for my husband and I really enjoy the smell and he likes the great smoke!!

Great smoke all by itself. I mix it 2 parts IQ to one part of Peter Stokebye black magesty for an all day treat.

Great blend. Packs easy,great draw,flavor and room note.

This blend has been my only decent smoke since October '79. It has always been smooth and never "bites", even when breaking in a new pipe. I've only received compliments when someone walks by. It reminds them of something their grandfather smoked when they were little. LOVE IT!

Grade A. Love this cheap all day smoke ..

The best I've ever smoked. Delicate, smooth and mild smell.

This is a lot like black n mild cigars but a better quality tobacco. Really smooth and mild room not is really good and is a great tobacco.

First bowl left me wondering why this tobacco is rated so high. The second bowl answered that question. About halfway through the bowl the flavor went to a sweet mellow cool flavor that was amazing. Have used it straight and as a blender with other tobaccos. Works great with cherry or vanilla flavored tobacco for me. Friend of mine tried it and thought it was great. This will be worth the extra to find a smoke shop in your area that carries it or to order from P & C.

Up until this blend, the only aromatics I've sampled were Tinder Box blends that threatened to put me off of pipes for good. This was the first "real" blend I'd tried and I understand why it's America's best selling aro. It's smooth and flavorful, burns well and doesn't bite. Maybe it's the absence of burley which was the main player in all those other joke blends. I'll be keeping some 1Q on hand for sure.

The tobacco was nice and smooth, I will definitely purchase more. My only complaint is that it was somewhat dry by the time I received it.

Great tasting mellow blend. Good for any occasion.

Service product and price were all fine.

Your shipping needs improvement. For the price that is charged, it should not take a week to arrive.

Without even knowing how this tobacco is blended, or how it is judged for taste and other considerations, this tobacco will have you say to yourself "Wow how good!" and there is the Experience of 1Q. It is a different appreciation for every smoker but most will agree, this tobacco I like, this tobacco is Legendary, this tobacco is the best because it is always good. I do not believe that in my hunt for the best tobacco there is another as good as Lane Ltd 1Q. Maybe another occasional great tobacco when we're in the mood suits us better than 1Q but there isn't one other to take its place. Long Live 1Q.

This is my absolute favorite tobacco. It smells amazing in the tin and has an excellent room note. I get complimented on its smell very often. It has a very mild sweet taste, perfect for an everyday smoke.

Well there is nothing I can say that hasn't already been said about this tobacco it is so light tasting it makes you want to light up a bowl as soon as you finish one .

thank you for excellent service. my pipe tobacco arrived as i hoped upon return from canada. i will be a long term customer with fresh product and good service. thanks again.

Yum! A really great tobacco, sweet and mild. A slight chocolate smell in the room, and a really great room note that my mom mistook for my grandfather's pipe from many many years ago. Could easily be an everyday smoke if you like aros.

Is this even tobacco? No flavor at all. I'm not even sure it produced smoke! I think I was smoking steam... Boring!

Good communication, fast shipping and reasonable prices. Thanks!

This is at the top of my list ! I was totally impressed with the bulk order I bought of "Lane I-Q" ! Now I know why it gets so many 5 star ratings ! Thank you !

Fine mild pipe tobacco- well priced and quick delivery

Terrific tobacco. Loads well. Lights easily. Smokes slow and cool. No gurgle. No left over dottle. This is my 'go to' tobacco.

Almost impossible to find something not good about this blend. Smooth, lite, bite less and pleasant note make this one of the few forever blends. Perfect burn to the bottom of the bowl.

This has a nice and smooth draw. Not as sweet as Molto Dulce, but still really good.

mellow and sweet aromatic tobacco!!!!

Mild, aromatic, smooth. What else is there to say!!

Nice. This is a very cool smoking, no bite tobacco. Sitting out on my patio smoking a bowl as I type. My new Stanwell Vario is doing this justice. I plan on breaking in the new pipe with this. I tried smoking some Lane BCA that I got in this but I prefer the 1Q right now. The BCA seems a little too heavy for a new pipe. Love PAC. It's my go to for all things pipe!

Two words that best describe Lane 1Q are smooth and mild, and this is just what 1Q patrons most like and pay for. Aficionados might even have more descriptive words for 1Q having a wider range of tastes in the libraries of bulk and tinned pipe tobaccos that they have tried than the new kids on the block like me. I wanted to taste the "best" pipe tobacco using the "best" pipe, ignited by the "best" soft-flame lighter and I agree with everyone whose opinion it is that 1Q is at the top of their favorites list because it is on mine also. I am smoking it now. But once you taste the best, as in best pipe tobacco, you can discover that in this World of fine tobaccos 1Q has its own place as in "always on hand" and "best" simply means "best on occasion".

Very pleased with purchase

It's The Bee Gee's of pipe tobacco... even those who snub it for being too mainstream, or as stated "not refined enough", will secretly sneak off, buy a pound, and smoke it in the closet :D. Taste is always the same, room note is never offensive, price is always good here at P and C. Chances are, that good "house blend" at your B&M is made up of 50% or more 1Q. Be careful though... it will bite you if you let it.

a very good aromatic that has a great room note . I get lots of compliments about how good it smells.

Lane 1-Q is a classic tasty mix, that never seems to "go off" which is important because of the amount I buy in bulk at a time. Sure some might not find it refined enough, but the ladies always love the room note.

Smooth mild flavor

Always a great deal on the lane 1 pounders no matter what blend you like. 1Q is still one of my favorite blends so far and keep in my rotation regularly. The floral /fruity fragrance is quite down home and pleasant. I only give it 4 stars because there is that one magnificent tabacco blend that may elude us all for being the tippy tippy top all time favroite blend which gives you the most absolute smoking experiance of all time which you still may not have found and i have reserved that 5th star for just that occasion to come. Though Lane 1Q is very close its just not quite there. But it is not one to pass over either. For you, 1Q may be your 5th star which is all good : ) But for me im still searching for that one tobacco that delivers the best flavor/taste, Aroma, NO TOUNGE BITE and pleasant experiance you could imagine from pipe tobacco.

Absolutely the best all around. I also use this tobacco as the base for a few home blends, especially good with a touch of cherry.

Smooth with little to no bite. Vanilla aroma is very pleasing.
