I don't dislike Lane Limited 1-Q, but I don't really like it that much either. It's mostly tolerable. One of the neighbors that introduced me to the hobby really, really likes Lane Limited 1-Q and it was one of the first tobacco blends that I smoked with him. I didn't dislike it, but I didn't love it either. He mentioned that one of the big appeals of the 1-Q for him is that it has a really pleasant aroma for when he smokes it around others. Another neighbor had a 3-4 year old jar of 1-Q that was much better since it had developed flavors of dried fruits and leather.
The first tin I purchased for myself on recommendation at a local tobacconist was 4th Generation 1957. It is reminiscent of Lane 1-Q, but has bit more punch and tobacco flavor. I don't really like it that much either though and I have quickly gravitated toward the English, Virginia, Balkan, and Burley tobacco blends. However, I do REALLY enjoy Lane Limited BCA and would recommend that you give it a try if you want a really flavorful and pleasant session-smoking kind of aromatic blend. It is everything that I want from an aromatic blend. I find myself reaching for it regularly when I just want something smooth, easy, and flavorful to enjoy when I don't have the time and energy for a more contemplative smoke, although BCA definitely has some depth to it, too...
