Cornell & Diehl: Bow-Legged Bear 2oz Pipe Tobacco

Maybe my favourite from c&d. Lots of fun to smoke as the different leafs flash in and out of the profile. A great experience.

This tastes very close (to me anyway) Father Dempsey but just a bit bolder from the burley and that stoving process. It tastes, earthy, dark n fermented through the whole bowl.
I have loved every cake tobacco from C&D.

Very good

While a good blend not one I'll get again too peppery and lacking any distinctive appeal

Didnt know what to expect tin note screams plumcake im a lover of orientals and perique which is what intrigued my purchase. The latakia is only present faintly on exhale which is pleasent. Its the smoothest full-bodied tobacco ive encountered. The sweetness is the icing on the cake great for all day but perfect for an after dinner treat...Read More

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.

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

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 difficult 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 More

I hate to say it but this blend is rank! Unpleasant tin note, rank room note, and a very disappointing taste. Maybe this blend needs to cellar more. Smoked it with 2 years of age. I may never buy again , but only to age and try again to redeem the last experience.

Just had the first bowl. Im sure this will be the go to after the second.
