Lane Limited's RLP-6

[jazzlover]

Today, I decided to test the waters of puffing after my cancer scare a few days ago. I did so with a bowl of Lane Limited's RLP-6 in an exquisitely carved meerschaum I purchased on Ebay last month. RLP-6 offered a cool, beautiful smoke with just a hint of sweetness. It was so relaxing nearly forgot the world existed.

I like Lane's. Am smoking their Burley Without Bite. I may try some RLP-6. It sounds like you've found

a true friend in the blend, so to speak.

I should't brag but I have about 35 pounds of this stuff in the ol cellar! I love it! Best stuff on Earth, glad to see someone else lovin it too!

Lane RLP-6 is IMHO a "touchstone" aromatic that provides a benchmark as to what an aromatic pipe tobacco should be: Tasty, burns/smokes really well, great room note, and (best of all) cheap!

According to my tobacconist Lane's RLP-6 is their version of Captain Black. I haven't had Captain Black, but I've had RLP-6 and its a good aromatic.

The only tobacco I ever bought by the pound and the biggest reason it's hard for me to get to the other tobaccos I have and still haven't tried. I love RLP-6, it's also the only tobacco I travel with and ironically keep it in an old Captain Black White pouch when on the road. Taste is similar to CBW, but I think RLP-6 smokes cooler and dryer.

used to find it too sweet though it was the best seller at two different shops i managed - now it is a staple for me - love it

Count me as a fan as well, tho I like HG-2000 even more.

Dr Watson: Were you exaggerating or do you actually have 35 pounds of RLP-6?

 

[lordofthepiperings]

I've gotten a few ounces on a number of occasions. Definitely a great blend worth giving a try if you enjoy aromatics or are looking for that once in a while aromatic.

 

[drwatson]

Yes I actually have 35 mason jars stuffed with one pound each I just need to stop buying baccy! But it just tastes soo good! What is also great about it, is I get some blend that I don't care for to much, I can mix it up too! I have even added some english to it with good results.

Doesn't Lane make Captain Black?

 

[drwatson]

Yes I believe they do also make it.
