[QUOTE="SteveMKentucky, post: 539986, member: 4231"] Lane 1Q was one of the first tobaccos that I ever tried in a pipe. I had just transferred to NAS Memphis in the Navy and visited a tobacco shop off Poplar. I can't remember the name of the shop (Tobacco Corner?) but the proprietor was a gentleman named "Elliot." I was a new pipe smoker and looking for a mild, beginner smoke. Elliot recommended a blend he called "Your Father's Blend." I bought it and it formed my opinion of pipe smoking for many years. Years later I was trying to buy some more and found that it was Lane 1Q. While I usually smoke English/Balkan blends I always keep a stash of 1Q on the side. Edit: I just did a search on Tobacco Corner Memphis and found that it closed early last year. Another classic B&M gone: [url=https://www.memphisdailynews.com/news/2018/feb/6/tobacco-corner-closing-last-location/]https://www.memphisdailynews.com/news/2018/feb/6/tobacco-corner-closing-last-location/[/url] [/QUOTE]
