Cornell & Diehl: Americana 2oz Pipe Tobacco

Some people might like it, but for me #1 way to light on the Latakia #2 take out the black Cavendish #3 needs more Latakia!! Bubba j taught me a wise lesson in life. I will finish it! Because quit I shall not!!

Good Morning starter. I would buy again

I have only had a few bowls, however, it has a nice room note as well at mouth note. Its enjoyable to light and smoke. Even burning, easy to keep lit, and generally well behaved. The tin note unsurprisingly is mostly Latakia but that's not a bad thing. It has a subltle sweet and earthy note. I am certainly glad to add this into my rotation.

And as a side note. As a Graphic Designer of 30 years, I must say C&D have some absolutely amazing tin art. They really bring the tin and blend together in a high quality way. My hats off to the art department! And IMHO art tends to be underrated and overlooked, but it really is the tie that binds, a sale and an experience....Read More

Delivery: No issues whatever. I seem to live in a magical part of the world where, in spite of trash USPS delivery on all other things ranging from money orders to medicine, tobacco makes it to my mail box early. There may yet be hope for the Republic. Packaging: C&D makes a fine product. Seals were all good. The tin should keep the product just fine. Flavor: Not much to write home about. This was my first Latakia. I get mellow nutty stuff from the burley and some bright acidity from the Virginia. The Latakia doesn't overwhelm. Plus, the stuff isn't too moist. So on a scale of 1 to terrorist beeper, it smokes at about a 7 and I don't have to spend all my time relighting. Room note: Not unpleasant. The Latakia adds this meaty quality that is fine for a few minutes. Then it starts to get on my nerves. Strength: This isn't the strongest tobacco. It ain't Gawith 1792. This stuff made me sick as a dog. Dunno why. Don't let that put you off....Read More

*shrugs* I liked it and my buddy that doesn’t like latakia tried it and liked it as well. Try it! It’s good! At least worth a throw in for cellaring =)

I'm new to English blends, but this is absolutely beautiful. The natural nuttiness of the burley melds with light virginias for a touch of sweetness contrasted with the smoky latakia adding a pinch of spice. I can't taste the black cavandish, so I assume it's used to add body and help balance the blend....Reminds me a bit of a dominican cigar, creamy nutty, earthy with a nice body with very little nic hit....I would highly recommend this blend, especially if you're a fan of Connecticut shade cigars....Read More

Sip it patiently, it will treat you. slight creaminess from the latakia without knocking out your taste buds, nutty from the burley. Dry mouth if smoked hasty. Take your time. Not strong but satisfying nic hit. Pleasant all day smoke, not too complex with surprising undertones every other sip here and there! Thumbs up!...Read More

It's not something I would want to smoke every day, but its definitely great if your in the mood for something simple

I tend to like English blends as my staple but almost equally enjoy burley blends. I'm a fan of Pegasus and this could be a runner up if that isn't available ever. It's one of those blends that isn't spectacular. Just something with a mild, smooth flavor that you can puff on all day long. Solid Burley blend with the cavendish cooling it down and the Virginia and Latakia providing a subtle and barely perceptible interesting note. Does lean more towards an English than a Burly but in a quiet way....Read More

I don't get this blend. I don't get a sense of "memory lane" at all. And I don't get what C&D was trying to achieve in terms of flavor. I just didn't enjoy it. Tried it for a few bowls, in both a cob and a briar pipe. Now I've given up. This is a blend I just don't get.
