Sweet flake.

Product: Cornell & Diehl After Hours Flake 2oz
À really nice offering from C&D and a shame it isn't offered in bulk. Opening the tin your greeted with notes of grass and boozey raisins. Initial lighting is fairly effortless for a flake. Underway the Virginia is up front with the rum in the ba... Read More

有一种草,让你控制不住的想抽它,又迟迟不敢抽,害怕换个新斗破坏了让你魂牵梦萦的味道,也怕这新的一斗因为抽吸,湿度破坏那种记忆的味道,但是当你夜深人静随手找斗将它点上你发现还是那个熟悉的它,因为它不是高档的草让你舍不得抽,也不是你日常的口粮天天抽,就是一种特殊的地位,只要点上,不负你的时间,时光去品吸它

I thought I would try this tonight, had a quiet night planned with a book. Packed my pipe and lit up, then completely forgot about my book. This is a really nice tobacco. The rum isn't boozy and has a nice toasted molasses taste which isn't overly sw... Read More

Sweet Virginias With Something Extra
September 05, 2019
Product: Cornell & Diehl After Hours Flake 2oz
Opening a fresh tin of After Hours awakens your senses to a sweet aroma of rum, fruit, and Virginias. Once lighting After Hours, I thought I noticed just a touch of Blockade Runner painted ever so lightly on a canvas of sweet ripe Virginias with jus... Read More
t a spritz of something extra added to it. All of the nuances of classic ripe Virginias are in there such as citrus, hay, and light orange, however, the rum highlights the Virginias and by no means over power or over take the Virginia flavors at all. No one flavor seems to overpower any other but several different layers of sweetness can be detected. I know others have mentioned the Carmel flavor, I personally do not taste it however, I wonder if it could be Cuba Libre (Rum & Coke) that is coming through. At one point, I thought I was even noticing a tiny bit of honey essence. With a light French inhale, you can really notice the sweetness of the smoke. Something else that is quick to notice is you don't get thirsty with this blend at all. I really like many of the English blends but they do tend to give me some dry mouth. This blend is the opposite. My mouth remains very moist and the aftertaste is very good. (Not ashy at all but I am left with an after-taste of sweet Virginias). I do think a little drying time could be applied before packing your pipe but I personally don't. I found that just breaking up the flakes works great and will remain lit with just a few re-lights all the way through to the end. (I tried just packing without breaking up the flakes and it was a little harder to get it lit and keep burning). As others have said, the flavors do seem to build as you smoke this. One other note was this blend seems to be on the high-end of a medium nic-hit but on the low end of strong (somewhere close to the middle). I noticed the nicotine about three-quarters of the way through but it wasn't enough to make me stop smoking it. When I ordered this, I also ordered a few other new blends to try, however, I haven't popped the tops on any of them yet because I have been enjoying this one so much. This blend is awesome and I plan on getting more on my next order. If I can keep it long enough, I am sure this will age well also. Read Less
Red VA with Spiced Rum
March 19, 2022
Product: Cornell & Diehl After Hours Flake 2oz
The VA is slightly woody with a smidgeon of sweet citrus from the brights. I appreciate a red VA with a bready/pastry-slightly sweet nuance... this one was decidedly woody. The tin note is spiced rum with a bit of caramel; initially I can detect sta... Read More
r anise, cinnamon and cherries as the spiced rum, with the cinnamon becoming more prominent in the latter half of the smoke. The rum is not boozy like say, Sextant. The caramel adds a bit of soft caramelized butter flavor here and isn't consistent in the least. Smoke it at a low temperature to get all the flavors otherwise Virginia can get ashy. The nicotine is 2.0-3.5 out of 5. There are times when it hits me a little harder and I feel like it's 3 or 3.5, so that's why it's such a wide margin. Read Less

Great way to fill your pipe in the evening, not an early morning blend but a fantastic after dinner smoke. Goes great with a dark wine or full flavored bourbon

It's a straight Virginia. With rum and sweetness. And it does it exceptionally. Can't ask for much more. The sweetness isn't overbearing nor the rum. They're topped exceptionally. Gonna order this regularly now

Honest Virginia
June 03, 2021
Product: Cornell & Diehl After Hours Flake 2oz
I could barely detect the rum in this blend. It starts out as an honest Virginia (broken) flake, with the sweetness of the rum coming in late. I found it to burn fairly hot, and I had to slow my cadence way down. This required more frequent relights.... Read More
I found this blend to have a slightly peppery quality, almost as if there was a touch of Perique included. I may add a few drops of one of my own favorite rums to bring the flavor out a little bit more. Basically, this is an honest navy style Virginia with no frills, that makes a nice evening smoke.

Product: Cornell & Diehl After Hours Flake 2oz
Another pleasant tobacco blend from Cornell & Diehl that allows you to relax and enjoy a smoked pipe and a pleasant aftertaste. The flakes in the pipe burn evenly, but it is better to smoke not whole, but crumble. The taste of dark rum does not preva... Read More

The caramel and dark rum really works well with this flake. Nice and sweet, great room note and a very mellow and relaxing smoke. Like the namesake, great after hours smoke at the end of a busy day.
Very enjoyable

It was very tasty with a sweet tin note of raisin bread and upon lighting I got notes of rum and dried fruit. It has a very relaxing nicotine kick that is great after a long day.

Nuttin' Wrong With This
November 15, 2019
Product: Cornell & Diehl After Hours Flake 2oz
Beautiful! Just beautiful! Tin aroma is very similar to Life Savers Butter Rum candies. Room note will get you many compliments. Despite the casing you still get plenty of tobacco flavor from that good old virginia. Magnificent!
