So I am fairly new to smoking pipes and can't seem to tell a difference between Lane Limited BCA and Smoker's Pride Black Cavendish. They are both made by the same company and looking at them side by side, look exactly the same. I think the BCA smells a bit stronger though. Is this a marketing ploy?

You're not the first person I've heard / read that says that those 2 blends are the same or incredibly close enough to not really matter. I think BCA is darn good for an occasional smoke on its own or a light pinch to sweeten up another blend. If I was in the market I'd have no issue spending my money on the smokers pride bag

How do I get it for $1.00? When I follow your link it shows a price of $9.99.


I don't know about the Cherry and Black Cavendish, but the Vanilla Cavendish is a good smoke! I would expect the others to be just as good.

Yeah, same here. I received an email that linked me to the $1 + Free shipping 3 flavor special, but I couldn't find the $1 deal by going straight to the site - only the $9.99 combo. Wish I still had that email now. I'd have shared the link, but I didn't think you needed it to find the special.

May be it shows up in the shopping cart for $1 if the system doesn't detect that you already got the $1 deal? It's limited to one per customer.

We'll, the sampler got me to buy 12 oz of their Black Cavendish. It's not a bad smoke.
