Extraordinary and then some!

Product: Cornell & Diehl Burley Flake #4 2oz
I think one is very lucky to find a perfect tobacco for one's taste. I have found two! Burley Flake #1 and this jewel called Burley Flake #4. They are equal in my scale of perfect Burley blends. From the strength, nutiness, packing and burning qualit... Read More

A Meal of a Smoke
December 12, 2017
Product: Cornell & Diehl Burley Flake #4 2oz
Great tasty, moist flake! Smoky-sweet, barbecued meat tin note. Nutty, spicy, and almost wholegrain cereal flake flavor. Nice sweet tobacco finish. A chewy, mouth-watering smoke that has a pleasant kick, to boot.

Beautiful soft well fashioned flake. I have to redux my review on this blend. I was being very critical in my initial review. My first few bowls of this were so-so, but I really didn't dry it properly and smoked it straight from the tin. Give it some... Read More
dry time, it will surely age nicely too. This is a great tasting blend. Beautiful Burley flake. Read Less

Product: Cornell & Diehl Burley Flake #4 2oz
Deep natural flavor from the burley and Virginia, nutty, dark fruity hay, espresso notes and smokey Latakia.
Nutty and strong!

Product: Cornell & Diehl Burley Flake #4 2oz
This is a strong, smooth, smoky burly. Flake is mostly broken, nice moisture level. You better like Burley and Latakia! Smells of old leather boots. Wonderful stuff.

Delicious, Clean & Strong

Product: Cornell & Diehl Burley Flake #4 2oz
Something about this blend just seemed super clean tasting, definitely a higher quality than the C&D Burley's i'm used to. Most burley's I've tried have a ashy undertone, not this one. Very nutty and the subtle latakia makes it super unique. I h... Read More

How am I Supposed to Know?
May 14, 2022
Product: Cornell & Diehl Burley Flake #4 2oz
So wet in the tin that I would bet it wouldn't burn with charcoal lighter. I spread it out on a sheet of paper and went to the store for 2 hours. When I returned it was as crunchy as corn flakes. I put a humidifier button in the jar and now I get to ... Read More
wait a couple of days for it to even out. I like some C&D/G.L Pease blends, but it's a pain in the ass trying to get them smokeable. I wish C&D would quit drowning their products with whatever it is that they add to them. I never go through this with most of the other
tobaccos I smoke.
Update: I gave this tobacco a dismal review because of its condition upon opening the tin. After I got it stabilized I tried a few bowls and this is my opinion after trying it. The dark fired contributes most of the flavor, a dark and smoky flavor with notes of sorghum. The flavor is not bad, but there are other things that rule it out for me. It is hard to keep lit, and the more you work to keep it going the more you get of its intense nicotine hit. The nicotine comes on with the first draw and does not let up through the rest of the bowl. Even after a large meal I could not finish a bowl of it. To sum it up, it would be a good blend for the flavor if you can take the nicotine, but it's way too intense for me. If you are a big burley fan, go ahead and give it a try. Read Less
Shows what burley can do
January 23, 2022
Product: Cornell & Diehl Burley Flake #4 2oz
This is a satisfying and perfectly smoky, sweet blend. It has enough bright burley and fruity red VA to make the Latakia become that thing that it can become when it is not overwhelming. I enjoy this with a big homemade latte on quiet mornings when I... Read More
have some time to think. I find it hard to imagine any pipe smoker who enjoys a strong blend, at least occasionally, not enjoying this one. Give it time to settle down or it will bite you. The required pacing along with the subtle sweet smokiness of it is what makes it the thoughtful smoke that it is. Just lean into it. Read Less

開けた瞬間ウンコの臭い匂いがします！しかしタバコに火を着けて吸っていくと誠に香ばしい香がして美味しいタバコに変身していきます。中盤以降が美味しく、吸い終わりは笑顔になります。

Another good Burley flake from C&D. I think I'll try the rest now.

I'm largely burned out on Latakia mixtures, but I make exception for this one."Meaty"describes it pretty well.The Lat is there,but so is the Burley.The lat is a supporting role, here.The strength is right there.I'm an unsophisticated lout w... Read More

Thunder Road
April 07, 2020
Product: Cornell & Diehl Burley Flake #4 2oz
Less than a third of the way through my second bowl, I started chuckling. Later I happily told my wife that this blend kicked my a$$. As with a stout or a virile porter, this is a mouthful that you taste all the way in the back of your throat. One-pi... Read More
nt limit. This is a blend to smoke across the table from Strider in a dark corner of the Inn of the Prancing Pony at Bree--as an elder local whom Strider has judged not to be a girly-hobbit--or a blend you smoke with Robert Mitchum at a rural still in Kentucky after making a run on Thunder Road. It may bring its own version of too much Izmir. I realized I had to slow down, like you should if you are going to enjoya full plate of bauernfruhstuck. I smoke it in a vintage GBD prince which I have dubbed "The Burley Bowl." Pipe as crucible. Good in the evening about every two week when I am in the mood for an arresting attitude adjustment. Taste is excellent and distinctive. Read Less

Product: Cornell & Diehl Burley Flake #4 2oz
The tin aroma is nothing short of delicious. As a burley fan, I had high hopes but my first bowl was very disappointing. Any tobacco with such a delicious tin note must be great, in the right pipe. So the second time I opted for a larger, wider bowl.... Read More
And boy did it sing! I found Morley’s Best to be a little more forgiving, but once #4 is matched to the right pipe, you are in for a real treat. Read Less
