I smoke lane 1Q for the second time in as many days. I must say that it is a keeper. Very nice and mellow tin note ad a very pleasurable smoke. I find that I can clench the pipe and just sit and puff without tongue burn or the bowl really getting too hot. Also found that my local B&M stocks it (under a different name) for a reasonable price of $2.49 an ounce. I've gotta say that this is a stellar smoke and will definitely be one I keep around at all times. Would definitely recommend for a beginner that enjoys aromatics and even for those that don't smoke aros as often. I'm sure most will agree but just my 2 pennies worth.
