Great blend
March 02, 2018
Product: Cornell & Diehl John Marr 2oz
Very interesting. Oriental based aromatic. Tin note is fantastic. Have received many compliments on the room note. The taste is orientals with a sweet topping. The bourbon and vanilla is very subtle but melds perfectly. The flavor stays through... Read More

A RELIABLE STANDBY
February 26, 2018
Product: Cornell & Diehl John Marr 2oz
When I first opened the tin it seemed too moist, but I couldn't resist. I filled a bowl and lit up. One match is all it took. Man oh man, I liked it immediately. Judicious gentle tamping and I never had to relight. Burnt to a white ash to the bot... Read More
tom of bowl. Never got too hot. It passed my ultimate test which is that I wanted another bowl immediately. Remember, this does have oriental tobaccos as part of the blend, so... they are there somewhat on the mild side (not wild side) but do jump in to help with a nice sweetness to let me know they are helping out. I will reach for this tin again and again. Love this blend, it reminded me why I love my pipes. In my top 5 reliable blends. Great going C & D! Read Less
Light yet satisfying
July 19, 2018
Product: Cornell & Diehl John Marr 2oz
This blend is tasty, yet very light in the mouth. The bourbon and vanilla is very subtle but prominent enough on the retrohale to get all the flavors of it. Very light, yet very satisfying and tasty. Well done Cornell and Diehl! I'll be stocking up o... Read More

Complex Yet Good!
May 27, 2018
Product: Cornell & Diehl John Marr 2oz
The Virginias combined with Turkish, Perique, and Black Cavendish is complex to say the least! But once you understand what it's doing, then you realize that this is an excellent smoke! Bourbon and Vanilla flavor is distinctly present but not overw... Read More
helming. The end note of Perique keeps it real and lets you know that this isn't just a cased aromatic - but rather a very flavorful blend! Smoked in a Nording Compass and new. Read Less
Smooth, Sweet & Satisfying
February 05, 2020
Product: Cornell & Diehl John Marr 2oz
No one, and I mean NO OTHER, does bourbon or whisky topping at the high level that Cornell and Diehl does. Has elements of Redburn and Pegasus, but a little better than both. Whereas Redburn is stout, oaky, LOADED with nicotine and rummy sweet with... Read More
bready VA, this lacks the nicotine, smoked oak and isn’t quite as sweet as the bourbon is a bit sour and the VA is grassy. The orientals and Perique set it apart from Pegasus, and lend more woodiness and tangy spice. I really like the bourbon and vanilla... adds a nice note even though the vanilla is very light. I really like this one, it’s smooth, sweet and satisfying. Light to medium body and nicotine, and the taste is subtle. Read Less
Good smooth blend

Product: Cornell & Diehl John Marr 2oz
This is a great smooth blend. It’s not very harsh and it has a nice little sweet subtle taste.
Johnny Marr Is One Rich And Smooth Fiddler
October 01, 2020
Product: Cornell & Diehl John Marr Bulk
The sweet, slightly fragrant pouch note gives little hint as to the rich and smooth performance that follows. Fiddler Johnny Marr works his strings of Turkish Orientals, red and bright Virginias, nutty burley, mellow Cavendish and spicy perique to ke... Read More
ep your attention riveted but your imagination soaring. You might find yourself craving bourbon and vanilla ice cream—perhaps a Bananas Foster—and I think you know why. You’ll be happy you attended the show! And Johnny will play YOU like a fiddle—in the best possible way. 4.0 stars. Read Less
fantastic Flavorful VAper Light
September 26, 2020
Product: Cornell & Diehl John Marr 2oz
This is a wonderful blend. The vanilla and bourbon compliment the tobaccos so well, what an accomplishment!!! I have been searching for a sweet tasting aromatic and this is it... it is a wonderfully complex tasting blend, that allows all the tobacco'... Read More
s to shine through, the sweet Virginia's , the spicy perique, with citrus notes quite prevalent. the tobacco is very light, but distinct...
The tin I cracked was 2 years old, so that may have smoothed out the Virginia's a bit.
Perfect moisture right out of the tin, no drying time needed. Fine ribbon cut is a pleasure to handle, easy to pack, light, and keep lit. Burns down to a beautiful gray ash..!!!! At last a solid non goopy Aro, that stays sweet to the bottom of the bowl..!!!
will be apart of the regular rotation..

Not a bad blend
June 13, 2020
Product: Cornell & Diehl John Marr Bulk
This is ok for a change of pace. Not much vanilla in either the tin note or the room note, mostly a bourbon forward taste with some subtle sweetness from the virginias and black cavendish. The burley gives it some body and the orientals and perique g... Read More
ive it a nice earthy flavor. Over all not a bad blend, just that I'm not getting much on the bourbon vanilla flavor profile that everyone else seems to be getting, but then again, this isn't an aromatic tobacco, so there ya go. Either like it or not. I like it and will smoke it from time to time just for that "something different" factor. Read Less
Tastes like cigarettes
March 07, 2020
Product: Cornell & Diehl John Marr 2oz
Smelled good in the tin. Once i packed a bowl n light it it was just a taste of cigarettes n head spinning nicotine. My brother also tryed it with similar results. Couldn't do anything with it and nobody else wanted it so i through it out.
Complex
December 28, 2018
Product: Cornell & Diehl John Marr 2oz
Moist directly out of the tin. A Bourbon/Vanilla aroma out of the tin, reminding me of GL Pease Virginia Cream. The flavors are complex. The Virginia does a good job of staying throughout, and the Oriental gives it a good layer of additional flavor... Read More
. The Perique tends to save itself for the end. The Bourbon/Vanilla is subtle in the smoke, but provides a fairly pleasant room note. Burns well -- very manageable with a small amount of dry time. Read Less
Chocolate spicy goodness
