Product: Cornell & Diehl Bow-Legged Bear 2oz
I found myself at our fishing cabin with pipe, but no tobacco. Rummaging, I came across an unopened can that I believe I picked up in Ashville years ago. It was wonderful and a complete surprise. I am glad to see its still made and am now going to... Read More

Unique Good Flavor
November 22, 2018
Product: Cornell & Diehl Bow-Legged Bear 8oz
This is my go-to tobacco. It has a mild almost creamy flavor and burns well. It provides a good bit of nicotine without going overboard, but will certainly wake you up. I enjoy the flavor so much that I plan to buy more and make it my regular smoke. ... Read More
Give it a try, you won’t be disappointed.

Still my favorite all day tobacco. If you enjoy latakia, mix in some GL Pease Odyssey 50/50 for extra yummy flavor. I always have a spare can of The Bear around in case I get low. Read Less

This has become one of my regular go-to blends. Its unassuming and pleasant for an every day smoke. Ut gas sine complexity with a hint of spice.
Product: Cornell & Diehl Bow-Legged Bear 8oz
A brilliant blend of tobaccos, the synergy of which makes for an out this world combination! Lots of chewy thick smoke that loads the palate. Cellars very well.

This blend goes deep and dark but smooth and mesmerizing. I always feel very relaxed after having this smoke. Easy burn.

I love Virginia blends and English. But I always find myself needing more of a kick with a lot of English blends. This has the perfect amount. Has a decent punch but still Smokey. Will now always be in rotation
Smooth, Tasty, Strong
June 10, 2022
Product: Cornell & Diehl Bow-Legged Bear 2oz
I tried a 2oz tin of this stuff with a little trepidation, not sure what I was getting myself into, but I’m very glad I did.
This is a blend that, because of the wide variety of tobaccos along with the hot-pressed and cake form, makes it fairly dif... Read More
ficult to discern the different tobaccos during basically anything but the charring light. Once it gets burning, it has a flavor all its own and I happen to think it’s really delicious.
Nicotine content is what I’d call medium-strong, just slightly more than Night Train but not near as much as HH Bold Kentucky.
The flavors and nicotine level go exceptionally well with morning coffee, and the room note is very reminiscent of something like dark chocolate with a hint of that Latakia pine camp fire smell.
Really great blend, I’m ordering a lot more to keep around. Probably in my top 2 or 3 blends for a morning smoke with a cup of coffee. Read Less

Product: Cornell & Diehl Bow-Legged Bear 8oz
Just sampled some of my Christmas gift. This smokes like what I had in the 80s, from a house blend. Except, five times smoother. I plan on buying 10 tins. Very smooth, and tasty. It will be good to compare against new product. It's excellent morning ... Read More

Product: Cornell & Diehl Bow-Legged Bear 2oz
Really, really enjoyed this! Surprisingly mild-medium body while complex in flavor. Nowhere near over powering. Just the right amount of Latakia, where you’re aware it’s in there, it does not take over. This blend deserves more recognition
Good enough to add to regular rotation

t of the tin right ready to smoke. Easy to light and keep lit. I will be stocking up on this. If you haven't tried Bow Legged Bear you owe to yourself to get a tin. You will not be disappointed. Just a quick shout out for the extra quick service. Ordered it and it was here in two days. Can't beat the blend or the service. Read Less

STRONG PUNCH

Product: Cornell & Diehl Bow-Legged Bear 2oz
At first this blend hits on some high notes of sweet, rich, smokey goodness! but as the bowl settles the blends purpose seems muttled and confused. its an intriguing blend with a heavy Nic hit. but seems to fall short of 4 or 5 star rating!

I couldn’t believe how strong this hit me in the nicotine Dept. I had a full stomach and I’m not anywhere new but my head was spinning 3/4 through the bowl. Weird. The flavor was strong and rich. Reminded me vaguely of pirate kake in how it’s rich an... Read More

Product: Cornell & Diehl Bow-Legged Bear 2oz
Nice mixture, full of flavor, strong and somewhat strange. It gives something different and refreshing and for me it remembers something of the traditional irish taste.
Product: Cornell & Diehl Bow-Legged Bear 2oz
I am still trying to figure this blend out. It crumbles easily and lights quickly. The flavour seems surprisingly simple. It does keep me coming back for another bowl.

Product: Cornell & Diehl Bow-Legged Bear 2oz
First bowl out of the tin, I thought it was alright, but nothing special. But after sticking with it for a couple more bowls, and then eventually the whole tin, it quickly became one of my favorites. Kind of a creamy feel, just a little bit of smoke ... Read More
from the Latakia, but not so much to be overpowering. I think it has a noticeable improvement after at least a year of sitting and stewing. Overall, a fantastic blend that’s great all day long. Read Less
I am not sure
November 03, 2020
Product: Cornell & Diehl Bow-Legged Bear 2oz
So. This is either superb or tastes like whatever was making that poor bear bow legged. I am leaning towards the latter. This may need several years of cellaring. It seems as if it is not certain what it wants to be when it grows up; a polite English... Read More
bear like paddington or a surly old jungle bum like Baloo. I can’t really identify any particular component as taking the stage, but rather than a harmonious blend, it’s more akin to the royal rumble, every man for themselves. Yes indeed. I think like the review from JohnLoewer 12 years in the bottom of the Gun Safe may do this Bear a little good. Read Less

Some of the best Latakia blends ever made have been ones pressed into a crumple cake. However, this is not one of those. “Harsh” is the word that keeps coming to mind when contemplating Bow-legged Bear. Even among C&D there are much better Engli... Read More

September 02, 2019
Product: Cornell & Diehl Bow-Legged Bear 8oz
This crumble cake has a slightly sweet nutty smell with a hint of smokiness out of the tin. The false light gives a plesant sweet english taste. The true light is burley strong with the VA and LAT taking a supporting role by giving a hint of sweet sm... Read More
oke. This is how the tobacco stays till the last 1/4 of the bowl where the sweetness disappears and the Burley becomes harsh and ashy.
The nic-hit is between medium and strong. Not a morning smoke. Leaves no moisture in bowl. After taste quickly leaves the mouth when sipping water.
This is not a bad smoke just do not like how it finishes. This is an excellent before bed smoke for those who like to Dose up before turning in. Read Less
