Tongue bite is eliminated by a slower cadence (puffing slower) and a drier smoke (removing moisture from the tobacco).
Sweetness is relative to what you like and can taste in a blend.

I think you'll like the Lane Limited versions of the Captain Black blends. They have less PG then the Captain Black blends so you won't get the chemical taste like you do with CB blends.
RLP-6 is Captain Black White
1Q is Captain Black Royal
BCA is Captain Black Dark
MV-1000 is Captain Black Gold
TK-6 or maybe Very Cherry is Captain Black Cherry
You can read the reviews of each blend under Lane Limited on

After only 16 years of smoking the pipes, I feel like someone's finally given me the secret code! I'm not a Capt. Black smoker and the only Lane bulk I smoked was Crown Acievement, but still! Thank you, Ray!
Or, MacBaren's counter to CB: 7 Seas: they also have it in Regular, Royal, Gold, and Red. The tins' colour should tell you which version of CB they're matching one-upping.
Dry Captain Black well, and smoke slowly. If not, get prepared for a tongue transplant.. but really, It's not terrible stuff.
I really like the bulk version of Captain Black Original (white). I had a pouch that I opened about 2 years ago, didn't care too much for it, folded it up and put it on a shelf over my work bench. I found it a couple of months ago and tried a bowl. I realized I liked it better and I could smoke it in a pinch.
Eventually I ordered a 4oz bag bulk from Cup O Joes to try and I really liked it...a whole lot! I've compared it to some RLP-6 I had put up last November and, though close, I still prefer the CBW.
I also ordered the bulk version of CB Cherry, and Lane Very Cherry to compare to Lanes TK-6. To my novice taste buds, neither tastes remotely close to the TK-6. The bulk CB Cherry is an improvement over the pouch version...smoother and less bite. The Very Cherry definitely has a cough drop taste, though not unpleasant.
I guess the purpose of this ramble was to say the obvious; personal tastes vary from one to the next and to me, the Lane-XX = CBxx does not seem accurate. YMMV, but my go to tobaccos now are bulk CB Original, Land TK-6, and good ole Prince Albert (from the tub).

I think we finally know how long it takes tol dry the stuff!
Good old Captain Monochromatic. I heard that when they opened an ancient Egyptian tomb they found an open pouch of C.B from 2000 years ago and it was still moist! 
Who said it was dry?
It did taste different tho...
One of our old members, Carolina churchwarden, left a pouch open in his car in the heat for over 6 months.Who said it was dry?
He swore it was still wet when he went back to it.
I got confused how Captain Black could be white.
When they released the Grape I got drunk.
Then I quit the pipe.
So I probably will never be a candidate for the Original, or the Lane.
But if they release CB cauliflower I might bite.

HA ! ! ! Tongue Transplants!
Suddenly I remember reading Space Chantey, by R. A. Lafferty, basically a parody (???) of Homer's Odyssey. One of the sequences involves replacement tongues.
