This is one of C&D's core blends for a reason. Throw a rock and chances are you'll hit 1 or 2 pipe smokers who've tried it. And at the end of the day, it seems to elicit a love it or hate it response. I love it for many reasons. Firstly, I'm a burley man through and through, and BF delivers. Secondly, it brings the nic and the strength without blowing out my palate for the day. And last but not least, this is a very simple blend that takes very little thought. It's best sipped, especially in a Missouri Meerschaum cob of absolutely any size. I can smoke bowl after bowl of this while drawing up spec sheets and doing paperwork. Awesome blend again C&D!

This tobacco is absolutely perfect. Orlik is like an old, dear friend or slipping into some comfy clothes. I prefer the smaller tin, which is probably mental - but it just tastes better to me this way. This tobacco has saved angry pipes who didn't like anything, and broken in some new pipes excellently. A standard; a classic. So terrific when your pipe aquires a taste for it after a few bowls. I cannot state enough how beloved Orlik Golden Sliced is. It is as perfect of a flake as one can hope for.

Its one of the best Latakia blends if you enjoy that. But give me Galloping Gertie..You sold out of Hogshead too fast. I literally looked away from you for one day. Gone. Read Less

Escudo is well represented in my cellar and for good reason. This blend ages with the best of them. Although, I really enjoy this blend with just a year of age on it. At this time when you crack a tin it has an incredible tin note of muscadines. The smell takes me back to my childhood and stopping at fruit stands on the side of the road with my mom. The blend not only smells great but it also taste pretty darn good too. The blend supports a wonderful mix of fruit, spice and a touch of hay (particularly when it is young). Give this one a try if you have not done so already. Read Less

This is an OK Virginia plug, but nothing special. It smokes cool, but only mild natural flavor from the tobacco. Some aging might help. And for the 中国人 scalpers who want to buy it all and resell at a markup - stick to trading Pokemon cards. This industry is a bad business model for that behavior. Fake 5 Star reviews to create Artificial Scarcity only works on here. Most of us will find the same product elsewhere even if you buy it all here. We'll then shrug our shoulders at the FOMO and laugh at you. Get a real job. Read Less

I wasn't blown away by this at first. However, the more I smoke the more I reach for it. This is a nice mild blend, burns well to a nice ash and takes to a flame easily. I will be buying more, this is really started to grow on me. As a follow up to this review, I just bought a larger tin, this has really grown on me and moving it to 5 stars. Read Less

With such a small batch release, why not just offer it to your American customers only? Opening the floodgates to international customers is like trying to feed the world with a handful of rice with such a number of tins available. If I were Jesus I could and would do it, like the fish miracle in the Bible. But I'm not Jesus. Let's take care of our hardworking Americans first. Read Less

This is a very good blend, but not for $25/tin - Capstan Blue has lost it's value for me... there are a number of Virginias I have found that are close enough for nearly half the price. STG is looking for the kind of margins they get with cigars with this product, and apparently are getting them! I've moved on... Read Less

I don’t see any reviews!Just gripes!It would be a shame if artists quit painting,because there was already a Michael Angelo,and we as pipe smokers are very lucky to have master blenders like Jeremy,at Cornell and Diehl! These small batch blends are a great thing let’s not gripe about them!Buy them if you want give an honest review so the next person can decide! As for me can’t wait to try but I’m just happy to have the opportunity!!! By the way I give Cornell and Diehl a 5 not a 4 1/2! Read Less

I honestly didn’t believe that Jeremy could have elevated C&D’s Virginia game beyond where Anthology took it. The grades selected for Steamworks and the lengthy processing have yielded a remarkably interesting and highly repeatable flake that seems to gracefully check each of the VA smoker’s possible boxes simultaneously. The highest quality Perique available and excellent, vintage Orientals provide support and add complexity, but they aren’t the stars of the show. This is a crash course in quality leaf and expert blending & processing. Age will be kind to this blend, but for the first time in years I’ll be struggling to let tins reach old age rather than just enjoying them all straight away. Read Less

Please stop reviewing pipe tobacco if you are inexperienced or can't taste. Eight State Burley is not egregiously topped, it has the taste of quality burleys mixed with top notch orientals, Virginia, and black cavendish. The burleys add a nutty, woody, and cocoa like sweetness. The orientals translate to a delightful buttery mustiness. That absolutely is not coming from a "Sun Bear" topping like so many misinformed reviewers have said here. I just don't want you to mislead others with your inexperience. This is pure, powerful blending of tobacco and not flavored with crap. If you're at all familiar with burley blends you know there's almost always a little something added to round out the smoke and make a more pleasant experience. Same is true of nearly all "natural" tobaccos. These are not added flavors but complimentary flavors and when well done they are usually barely noticeable, sometimes not at all. Or the addition can be done as with Haddo's Delight which has an obvious spirit addition that works fantastically with the tobacco blend. With Eight State Burley, the topping is apparent in the tin note but light and disappears behind the tobaccos. I pick up cocoa and a similar but greatly reduced note of whatever is used in Savinelli 145 (even in that blend, the topping was readily apparent but not heavy in tin note but took a far back seat during the smoke). Oriental forward with a solid foundation of burleys first half of the bowl which come into balance as they're smoked down. Pleasant, repeatable smoke that has nuance but isn't complex. Really looking forward to what just a year or two does for this blend. Read Less

I love the ready rubbed and tin both. The RR is more convenient though. I like to take St. Bruno with me when I travel because it's dependable, I get a good smoke every time. It is slightly floral, but not in the same way Lakeland type blends are. British tobacco's all tend to be more hearty, meaty, earthy and this is no exception. The RR is ready to smoke right out of the pouch, but you may want to let it dry for a little while from the tin. Read Less

After 40 years of pipe smoking, and 30 years of "English" type blends, Balkan Sasieni is just perfect for me. I smoked Balkan Sobranie for some 25 years (on and off always as a treat) and this blend is just as fabulous. I was tobacco blender and retail manager to the famous WILKE PIPE SHOP from 1979-93. I have tasted and blended a world of tobacco. I settled on Sobranie and now......Sasieni. For me it is wonderful and most satisfying. Read Less

Been smoking this for Years!. It is dry, BUT, I add slices of Orange Peel when i first open the bag. Shake it up and let it sit sealed for a day-ish.... good thing is... if it gets too moist, i can let it sit with the bag open until i get it just right.... The orange really makes it a tasty and floral smoke. Read Less

I am NOT A fan of this type os Aromatic tobacco. So you may wonder WHY I bought a tin? All I can say is that I was suckered into buying it because of the promotion, the packaging, and my deep respect for MOST of what C&D produces. I like to try almost everything in pipe tobacco, at least once. Consider myself a connoisseur and I believe that I shouldn't judge a thing until I've tried it. Big mistake. This blend is EXACTLY why I generally don't like many aromatics. The taste of Maple, or Brown Sugar or pancakes simply does not belong in my pipe bowl. I ate pancakes this very morning. I don't need to smoke them. The taste of this heavily sweetened, overly flavored tobacco was so cloying that I can't get the unpleasant taste out of my mouth yet. The classic "Cavendish" sweetness that I most hate is redolent in this blend. If you love Captian Black White or any other of the thousands of cheaply made, overly sweet stuff your grandfather smoked for thirty years, then you will love this. I'm an English, Balkan, Va/Per, Va/Burley, straight Virginia smoker, and I know what I like. I also know what I hate, and this personifies everything I HATE in pipe tobacco. I hope I can get the taste out of my mouth some day, and I pray that I can rid my new Nording Prince of it's fouling aftertaste. Buyer BEWARE!! Read Less

I cracked one of these open and was greeted with a nice bbq like smell that I describe as close to Peterson Night Cap. Moisture was perfect. From start to finish, this blend stayed smooth. A little spice, a kiss of sweet on the back side and sides of the tongue. Good commemorative blend for the Chicago Pipe Show - it did not disappoint. Read Less

This area is for tobacco reviews. It’s not the whine because you don’t understand limited quantity section. Sure, be mad if you wanna But express your wrong opinions to Laudisi and stop ruining the review section with your childish crap. I actually think it’s really neat that Pipes and pipe tobacco are still popular anywhere. It’s good for us here, that there is a demand for it elsewhere because America couldn’t support the pipe industry all by itself. Read Less

To me, its the best there is, the best there was and the best there ever will be. Smoky, sweet-honey mesquite bbq goodness all the way down the bowl. A dash of relight gives you another immediate and flavorful-tongue-dancing taste that few blends can do. Thank you Joe Lankford for this masterpiece and thank you C&D for bringing it back. Read Less
