Captain Black Cherry blend

[Haebar]

I wanted to try this blend because I like cherry aromatic blends and Captain Black is a very popular commercial blend. It is made of a mixture of Cavendish and Black Cavendish with a cherry casing. The appearance is of mostly reddish brown color ribbon cut with a very few black pieces. The tobacco is not overly moist or goopy at all. The aroma is a pleasant cherry smell, as one would expect. It lights easily right out of the pouch, no additional drying time is necessary. The flavor is a pleasant sweet cherry taste, nothing complex or of great depth here. This is a light/medium tobacco in terms of smoke intensity and light in terms of nicotine strength. The high point of the bowl is the first ten minutes after lighting when the cherry flavor is at its peak. Thereafter the cherry flavor wanes progressively as the bowl burns down. I smoked it in a Missouri Meerschaum corncob pipe and it burned cool and dry.

If you like cherry, try Cult. Good stuff and not overbearing.

I don't smoke pipe tobacco much but the last time I tried it was Cult. The cherry taste was amazing!

Thanks, I've got a tin here somewhere, but haven't opened it.
