This would be a good blend for aromatic smokers to try an occasional English blend especially if you like a little more burley.
The begining of the bowl almost seems too mild but the flavors build toward the middle and finish strongly.
Not my favorite C&D blend but I can see the appeal.

Campfire heaven

Out of the handful of blends I’ve tried containing Latakia, I have to give Black Duck top tier standings. It’s not over the top like Da Vinci which I find too strong but has enough to keep you satisfied. If I’m not sitting around a camp fire enjoying life, I’m smoking a bowl of Black Duck to fill that void. Good stuff!!...Read More
An elegant Black Duck!

The picture of the smoking black duck really caught my attention. It seems that Daffy Duck has not appeared for a long time, apparently he is actively into pipe smoking..hehehe!!
An English mixture with a solid presentation of dark, smoky,musty, leathery, with a perfect note of spice and sweetnes
s. The character of each component plays cheerfully smooth and nuanced throughout the bowl.The added burley and cavendish really giving the right amount of kick.One of the Cornell & Diehl blends that presents a very satisfying smoking experience. In addition to swimming, diving and flying, it turns out that the Black Duck is very good at pipe smoking and choosing his favorite tobacco!
Very well done and simply recommended!

Another C&D 'Black' Blend Scores BIG!

Product: Cornell & Diehl Black Duck 2oz
I typically prefer English and Balkan blends over most everything else. So... with all the fanfare over the C&D 'Black..' blends I had to try this. (The first one I tried was Black Frigate. Which I REALLY LIKE. Just finished now my tine of BLACK DUCK. Not that I don't like BLACK FRIGATE.... but BLACK DUCK is now the lead. Clouds of good smoke. Burns well, no tongue bite. I'm not real sensitive to flavors but I swear I detect a hint of licorice (yeah, 'black licorice' lol). Unless you hate Balkan blends, black Cavendish, Latakia. et al.... get a tin and smoke in a variety of pipes. Hint: meerschaum wins! LOL...Read More
Over the pond, under the radar

Product: Cornell & Diehl Black Duck 2oz
I bought it because it has a duck on it, but I'll keep buying it because it's a wonderfully balanced English blend. It's smokey, it's leathery, it's musty, but not overpowering in any dimension or as a whole. The tin note is amazing too. I find myself opening this just to sniff the jar several times a day....Read More
My favorite by far

I wouldn't consider myself a connoisseur of piping however, I have smoked a fair share of tobaccos and by far I will say this is my favorite blend, to me it smokes very easily and tastes good, not sweet not spicy, just a good full flavor that is easy to smoke and keeps me coming back over the 10 or so tins that I have in my small supply....Read More

Long time fan of the Black Duck. It’s usually what I crave for when I’m feeling English.
Wasn't sure I'd like duck hunting

But damn I do! Got this on a whim because the smoking duck picture intrigued me and the reviews encouraged me. And dang, it's a fun smoke for me. It's been a while since I smoke the last bit (and my newest tin just arrived) but I remember a slight almost saltiness to it and a definitely satisfying experience. This, along with Habana Dream, is in my current top 5.
Only wish it came in bulk...

Sophisticated

Product: Cornell & Diehl Black Duck 2oz
Black Duck is a pleasure to smoke. Smooth as silk with a mellow, musty aroma. A delicate sweetness in the middle of the bowl to coax you along to finish the rest of it. A very mild blend with a sophisticated flavor profile.
