About This Pipe Tobacco

Choice 2003 vintage, Eastern North Carolina red Virginias crown this jewel.

Accented by sweet bright leaf and rounded by small-leafed Katerini, Bijou is married with a hint of honey before being pressed and sliced into delicate flakes.

This gem requires no adornment. Just time.

Estimated peak: 10-15 years

My favorite C&D Offering
May 24, 2026
Product: Cornell & Diehl Bijou 2oz
Cornell and Diehl’s catalog can get a bit overwhelming. But if I could only have one, Bijou would be it. The tin note is like stepping into an old world bakery. Lightly sweetened bread with dark dried fruit. The very well aged 2003 Virginia’s are rounded and mellow, and the Katerini is a perfect compliment. My only complaint is the availability, comes and goes so quickly. I wish I had the will power to cellar this blend as the recommended to for l0-15 years. Next time…...Read More
Simple complexity
July 02, 2026
Product: Cornell & Diehl Bijou 2oz
With the short list of ingredients in this blend one might expect something good but simple… and you wouldn’t be wrong. And yet, there lies a complexity here that was a tad unexpected. The play between the different Virginias is well noted and interwoven with an interesting sweet and incense type complexity from the oriental leaf. This keeps the flavor constantly dancing in and out of different tasting notes on the pallet. The light casing of honey really only deepens what is already happening in this blend. What this gives to the smoker is a deep flavor, sweet and rich, without being an “after dinner” smoke.The room note is incredible, rich and sweet as well, way more than brought out with most Virginia blends. All of this flavor and yet it’s also very well behaved in the bowl. This all from a fresh tin?! I can’t wait to try this blend with some age behind it....Read More
Delicate Flake or Ready-Rubbed?
July 01, 2026
Product: Cornell & Diehl Bijou 2oz
Received some tins dated 060126 planning to age them. It says on the website description, as well as the label, 'pressed and sliced into delicate flakes.' Not that it is a big problem, but I was surprised that the tobacco, if it started out a flake, was completely rubbed-out in the tin, nothing even resembling a flake. Unsure if this a new development with the blend or an anomaly. Definitely will benefit a lot from aging - not sure how the aging process will go since it is not in a compressed flake. Decent Virgina right out of the fresh tin. Needs some drying time before smoking....Read More
A bipolar blend , but in a good way
May 22, 2026
Product: Cornell & Diehl Bijou 2oz
I call it bipolar in a good way because sometimes it's virginia forward , and sometimes it's oriental forward. To me , that kind of variation is very pleasing. If you're Looking for huge plumes of smoke , this is not the blend for you. If you go at it like a steam engine , it will bite you nor do you have to baby sip it. Just smoke it with a moderate cadence , and you will be rewarded....Read More
Can't believe I've not heard more about this blend.

Product: Cornell & Diehl Bijou 2oz
I tried it on a whim when I decided to get 2 tins of each blend in the cellar series. So glad I did and found this. It'll be in my regular rotation now. Honestly not sure how much it can improve with age, its that good fresh from a new tin!! It's sweet, smooth and mellow from the opening light with notes of hay, and brown sugar and a light, earthy note in the background. The honey casing adds a sweet touch to it. The Orientals don't show up til half way through and provide a nice spice to complement the sweet notes still there....Read More
