I just got some Lane bulk pipe tobacco. The RLP 6 and 1Q. I have tried the RLP and am pleasantly suprised. It has a great flavor smoke a easy and no bite for 2 bucks an ounce it is a great price. I was curious what y'all's take was on it.

You can't beat the price for the quality. It is probably more suited to us aromatic smokers. Some of my daily smokes are Lane bulk offerings.
Yes I am really happy with it and the price is great. It is very moist right out of the package. Even more moist than I like it despite my comments on the "Dry, Dry , Dry !" Post.
Lane bulk is good. Especially the 2 blends you mentioned. I add some 5 brothers to it to make them stronger.
Other than 1Q, which is a decent aromatic, I've been disappointed with Lane bulk brands. They are far from horrible, but I think there are other far better choices out there.
I like 1Q, but I especially like their Burley Without Bite, both smoked alone and mixed with Virginia and Cavendish
and with other tobaccos. I prefer LL-7 to 1Q. It has a little more personality when I want an aromatic. I think Lanes
blends are good tobaccos at reasonable prices, and I have enjoyed their products.

I have now smoked both the 1Q and RLP6 and I like the flavor and the easy smoke however it is moist. I think I was getting condensation in my mouth. It definitely needs to be dried out some before the next smoke.
The only Lane tobaccos I've tried are 1-Q and HGL. I like them both, but I admit to using the 1-Q to blend with other tobaccos to alter the strength or flavor more than I smoke it straight. My current favorite blend using 1-Q is it and H&H Louisiana Red mixed 50/50.
I dig 1-Q, but I am in love with MV-1000. I Also really enjoy BS-005, but then I love latakia.. Most of the Lane bulks are kind of take it or leave it, but surely there is at least one that everyone has as a go-to, if only to mix in or as an "if all else fails" kind of option.
I started smoking Lane bulk over 40 years ago.Still smoking it now.Mostly HGL and 1Q...HGL is a good blend for those who like to try a mild Latakia blend.
I love burley light without the bite. Dumb name, amazing smoke. I always have at least 8 oz on hand.
