I have tried most of them, not bad for the price point it’s at.
I did use a can of the Cherry when I was playing around with stoving, this one was the winner of them so far.
It really mellowed it out and increased the cherry flavor through the whole smoke. The cherry doesn’t stop with a tin note, you can taste and smell it through the whole bowl. The wife said it smelled great

I actually like Captain Black Royal about as much as most pipe tobacco. The only reason I smoke anything else is I like variety.

I have a friend who smokes Captain Black exclusively. A true Codger.

I like them all . The Gold I wasnt crazy about when I first tried it .. but over time I started figuring it out and I smoke it pretty often . It does mix well with other stuff too . Price point wise I think its expensive . The bulk stuff is much better priced and with the 100's of bulk blends theres many for everyone . However , that doesnt stop me from smoking Gold quite a bit . I have yet to try their Platinum but they are all good ... the Dark is an excellent all balck cavendish . Its odd ,

You are laser-focused on the PSF target demographic.

For those of you too young to have any clue what we are talking about, here is a clue:

Never could get past the medicinal cherry pouch note, it reminds me of Robitussin tastes. I like CB Royal out of the lot.

A brand I’ve never sampled, not even sure if I’ve seen it over here. We get Borkum Riff, which I must’ve tried but for the life of me I can’t remember. Can’t smoke them all, as they say, or even remember half of them!

For some reason I can see him smoking the pipe and snorting cocaine
