Product: Cornell & Diehl Bright Virginia Ribbon Bulk
It seems to me that within the previous months the cut of the tobacco has become more fine - I prefer the more less cut.
A True Surprise

Product: Cornell & Diehl Bright Virginia Ribbon Bulk
This was literally a nice surprise. I had ordered a pound of Burly Ribbon Cut and Got a POUND of this instead. At first this Virginia was awesome with a great natural lemon flavor. As it ages the grassy hay notes seem to be coming more forward. ( Abo... Read More
ut a year now) Although I smoke it often mixed with a touch of burley ribbon cut I have found it even more awesome, especially when in full lemon, mixed with BCA. The latter mix has become one of my daily’s that I keep in a half pint jar in the truck. Read Less

Try it in a corncob

Product: Cornell & Diehl Bright Virginia Ribbon Bulk
Smokes fast and strong. I smoke it in a homemade corncob with a small bowl and it matches the length of my friend's cigarette break.

More yellow hey from C&D. This crap tobacco keeps burning to a black charcoal no use adding more moisture these C&D Blends seem to be very dry I don't think I'm buying any more of their stuff.

Clean tobacco & Perfect with any test.
Dissapointing

Product: Cornell & Diehl Bright Virginia Ribbon Bulk
I thought I'd try this as I'm a Virginia tobacco fan and it was on sale. The tobacco was very dry on arrival. Surprisingly it tasted and burned like Burley with a bite. Will not re-order.
Sweet hay

Product: Cornell & Diehl Bright Virginia Ribbon Bulk
At first I got strong hay and grass, then it opened up and became sweet hay and grass, had a nice spice to and of course will dry your mouth out a bit. I like it. Buying more

Bright Nuance; Sugar, Grass and Citrus
June 21, 2021
Product: Cornell & Diehl Bright Virginia Ribbon Bulk
There's a bit of citrus astringency in the mouth, but that's to be expected. Otherwise, it’s remarkabley Smooth. Grass/hay, sweet and a bit of citrusy tartness are all present. These are all sharper in their flavor profile than Red or Stoved VA, and... Read More
they contribute to a 'brighter' profile to the leaf. Deeper into the smoke, the grassy character becomes slightly more bready and the citrusy sharpness less so. Like Izmir, this is one we can smoke neat, and it's bright and sharp flavors are sure to freshen or brighten any mixture, though bear in mind that the brighter and sharper flavors will change half way through the smoke. The bright leaf is obtained from the top of the plant and are among the highest quality. Nicotine is light; 1 out of 5. Read Less
Perhaps picked too young
September 23, 2020
Product: Cornell & Diehl Bright Virginia Ribbon Bulk
Been 47 years since I was a novice pipesmoker. This is -in comparison to many other straight virginia offerings- mediocre at best.
It burns well, yet there is little in the way of any distinctive flavor and character. Perhaps it is a young Virginia ... Read More
that simply needs more maturing prior to harvesting.

A tasty Virginia

Product: Cornell & Diehl Bright Virginia Ribbon Bulk
I smoke this by itself and it is an excellent straight virginia smoke that is basic in its elements but complex and tasty when placed into a pipe.
Solid stand-alone, great blender
March 24, 2020
Product: Cornell & Diehl Bright Virginia Ribbon Bulk
Unlike my experience with C&D's Red Virginia Ribbon, Bright Virginia carries more nuance when smoked alone. The hay notes drive the bus but hints and notes of caramel, vanilla, and table sugar are always in play. A slight creaminess would develop... Read More
as the bowl continued as well. Leaves minimal moisture and a nice room note. A great blend on its own right and as a blender. Read Less

Product: Cornell & Diehl Bright Virginia Ribbon Bulk
I'm a big fan of Yorktown. In the MM and for mixing Yorktown is superb. This Virginia is a distinctive change. The initial taste that comes through is sweetness, slight fresh hay, bordering on a Turkish flavor. I smoked it straight in the MM, and I m... Read More
ust say, this tobacco is extraordinarily smooth. It did burn fast, but not hot.
The sweetness surprised me and as soon as I finished the bowl I wanted more. Just a straightforward quality smoke. I'm looking forward to blending this and will keep it straight in the MM often. Pure and simple, this is a winner in my book. Read Less

Product: Cornell & Diehl Bright Virginia Ribbon Bulk
I was trying this to see how it would work in blends, but was happily surprised at how good it was on its own. Not complex and layered, but a very pleasant smoke indeed. I will still try blending it, but will gladly keep some on hand to smoke on its ... Read More

Product: Cornell & Diehl Bright Virginia Ribbon Bulk
Jar note of lemon grass, spices, and mild stewed fruit. Tobacco looks like it was pressed, sliced and mostly rubbed out. a few chunks can be rubbed down further. The yellowish orange-red tobacco has a good moisture content, some may prefer to dry it ... Read More
a bit. Burns slow with few relights. The strength is mild to medium and nic is mild. No flavoring detected. Taste is mild to medium and very consistent, with notes of wood, spice, sweet bread, mild grass, mild earth, mildly floral, slightly bitter, orange peel, slightly dry, lemon zest, a tangy sweet citrus background note, and a peppery retro. Room note is pleasant to tolerable, and aftertaste is great. Read Less

Bought it because I wanted a pure bright Virginia to smoke on its own, and really enjoyed it out of my dedicated Virginia pipes! Also used it to blend with my C&D Exclusive for when I want to mellow the perique down a little for a relaxing smoke, as... Read More

Wanted RYO shag-cut tobacco.
Smooth, light, yet flavorful. My wife smells hints of carmel, my nose isn't that good!
Great customer service, have placed 2 8-oz orders, arrived fresh & moist. About 7-days USPS to TX.
In general, excellent tobacco
November 29, 2021
Product: Cornell & Diehl Bright Virginia Ribbon Bulk
In general, excellent tobacco, even if not mixed, but smoked separately. Of course it takes time for storage to ripen better. Even at a slow rate of smoking, it bites slightly on the tongue.
I buy it to make my own mixes.
Great as a base

Product: Cornell & Diehl Bright Virginia Ribbon Bulk
I use this to blend with some other fine cuts, it is a solid base. Flavor, no bite, burns good and ages really good!!

My everyday smoke
October 19, 2019
Product: Cornell & Diehl Bright Virginia Ribbon Bulk
This is my go to tobacco, it is a nice clean Virginia that hits all the right notes. Burns fast but not hot. Sometimes I blend this with a white burly to up the NIC. This bulk has all the quality I've come to expect from Cornell & Diehl!
Bright and Clean

Nice bright clean Va. Didn't get much citrus, but a very nice bready note. Will definitely be getting more!

Bright, sweet, and clean. Great for blending or smoking as is.
Essential for Blenders

Product: Cornell & Diehl Bright Virginia Ribbon Bulk
Have used this in many different blends I have made. Quite moist upon arrival. Quality Virginia with the hay like smell out of the bag and sugary cigarette taste when smoked straight up.

This is a very tasty ribbon! Easy to work with and a joy to smoke.
Quality unadulterated bright VA
October 16, 2017
Product: Cornell & Diehl Bright Virginia Ribbon Bulk
I purchased a pound each of bright and red VA.for blending and both are pure, unadulterated tobaccos. Oftentimes I feel people misuse the word when describing Virginia or burley blends (even McC virginias?), but here I use it in the truest sense. ... Read More
No casing or topping to be found here. Moisture out of the sealed bag was dry but not too dry, and consistent with all c&d blending tobaccos with the exception of perique and black Cavendish which makes sense. Bag aroma is as advertised with grass, hay, and a little citrus, with all of these translating nicely to the smoke. Smokes smooth and fast as is, and is rather enjoyable by itself with a low to mild nicitinerary presence. For blending it is just as good, though admittedly it has played a small role most often (so far) in my blends up to this point. As a side note I noticed that smokingpipes.com rated this a solid 4 across the board for strength, room note, and taste which I assume is an error. Cornell and diehl blending dark fired has an equal rating and rhetoric red VA has solid 3 stars. Read Less

Product: Cornell & Diehl Bright Virginia Ribbon Bulk
I found my self mixing this with some black cavandish and Latakia. It is fine by ots self but burns fast and can burn hot if not carfull. It smells great and when it came bag it was the perfect moistness.
