Who’s smoking 1-Q?

[58marinemp11]

I went on a 3 week camping/roadtrip. I grabbed a new 4 oz. baggie of 1Q. Being in a hurry ( bad to pick ‘that there terbaccy for a trip, when your rushing to leave!!) After the first week, I had to stop and buy some Prince Albert just to have a change. Me thinks I founder’d my self on 1Q. Sorry Lane. Semper-fi & This We’ll Defend, Mike

I read a while ago that Lane Ltd ended production in Tucker, Georgia, so is IQ and all the '1Q by other
names', tobaccos produced in the US now or somewhere else?

Lane Limited is the property of Scandinavian Tobacco Group since 2018, or so. While they kept manufacturing in the US for some time after the acquisition, all their blends are now manufactured in Denmark.

Many thanks Davy, it's something I've been wondering about for some time.

I just picked up another batch couple of days ago. I like it, Mrs likes the smell, win win.

You're welcome, mate.

I believe I have a few tins of Lane 1-Q
Time to get reacquainted with it again.

This thread inspired me to crack open a quart jar of 1Q I’ve had stashed since 2019. Wasn’t trying to age it, just moved mostly away from aromatics (not totally, but I’m a VA kind of guy now). It’s as I remember it, a nice, easy aro. Ms Wiz commented positively on the scent (which she never does). Maybe this will be my dead of winter, garage pipe blend this year.

I've tried it and I like it OK...more for nostalgia than because it's an amazing blend. I haven't smoked it in years though. It's one of the first tobaccos I ever tried, as Tinderbox recommended it to me for a first smoke. They sold it as "Wilshire".

Never tried it, is it the same as Stokkebye 201 plain vanilla?

 

[The Old Professor]

It was the 2nd blend I ever tried. I think it is a good smooth aromatic. I have a pint jar full of it and smoke a bowl every now and then.

It was one of the first blends I ever tried and I like it but have since moved on. I plan on revisiting it and keeping some on hand since it is a easy smoking aromatic and has a nice vanilla flavor that doesn't invoke thoughts of chemical warfare.
