About This Pipe Tobacco
C&D's true Navy Cavendish crumble cake is made with hand-stoved red Virginia and golden Virginia, soaked in a premium rum for seven days, then lightly stoved again, pressed and cut. The seven days are the time it took our seagoing forefathers to sail back to New England from the Islands with the tobacco in their casks soaked with rum. The ship on the label is the Advance, the South's most successful blockade runner.

This stuff! Its like a really good navy flake but not flake lol, leaves a rum after taste in a brand new or cleaned pipe, burns cool, very flavorful whats not to love, will be picking up an 8 oz cam next time.

Just try a tin. Simple as that, then you'll know why I wish they made it in bulk.

A piece of history in a tin

once in awhile you get that boozy rum from the tin note. Wasn't crazy about it at first. Figured I had better stuff out there to enjoy, until something happened. One week I took my entire stock with me jarred up when I went away and I ONLY had this stuff every night I wanted to have a pipe. It grew on me the more I had it. That made me think about something in retrospect. Sailors and workers back then didn't get to have "50 different jars" and a "cellar of 10 year aged tobaccos" they only had on them what they took, and I'm sure it made enjoying that little bit of comfort all the more enjoyable when that WAS the tobacco blend that you had. This blend is C&D's oldest recipe blend (from the 1800s I believe) and this is quite literally what sailors would've been smoking in the 1800s. Nothing fancy, nothing crazy, but yet it still holds up to some more modern stuff. That in it of itself is what makes this blend so special to me. The story of it, the history of it, and the people that enjoyed it....Read More

the cake broke up easily and you could immediately smell the rum in the tin. burned perfectly and was easily packed. Light citrus and bright notes. Very enjoyable during the day and night.
