I'm putting together a small aromatic order along with some other stuff. Has anyone here smoked Lane Black Raspberry that wouldn't mind giving an opinion? It sounds good and it gets good reviews on tobaccoreviews.com, but I would value your opinions more. It doesn't have to be long unless you want it to be. Good? Bad? Total Crap? Meh?

I have never tried it, so I am not much help.

I wonder if "blame Wildcat" will become a theme here? - Fr_Tom

I smoked a lot of it some years ago. It's good. Definitely a raspberry flavor going on. Definitely a lightweight aro on the strength meter for nic.

Strikes it from my "to try" short list...

Exactly! The combo of aro's losing flavor for me and the absence of sweet sweet lady nicotine made it a no go in this camp too

I've smoked Russ O's black Raspberry, but not Lanes. I do have a couple of friends that have it in their regular rotation.

I've never tried it. Is it really wet like most Lane blends?

Well, that settles it for me. I love raspberries but I won't order over an ounce of this instead of the four I had in mind. I have an idea of adding some burley or Virginia to kick it up a notch or two and still get some raspberry flavor. Thank you gentlemen.

I love it! It is really good alone or mixed with BLWB.
