Cornell & Diehl: Carolina Red Flake with Perique 2oz Pipe Tobacco
Product Number: 003-016-0346
The 2023 edition of Cornell & Diehl's Carolina Red Flake with Perique — the blend's third incarnation — is a masterful tribute to the United States' historic Old Belt growing region, featuring two exquisite Red Virginia grades alongside naturally sweet Canadian Bright leaf and genuine St. James Parish Perique from C&D's exclusive farm in Louisiana.
Grown, harvested, cured, and barrel-aged all at 31 Farms — a single, family-owned farm in the heart of St. James Parish, Louisiana — C&D's authentic Perique contributes unparalleled richness and complexity, ranging from deep stone fruit notes to bold, piquant spice. This rare varietal — the rarest in the world, in fact — combines with several top-tier flue-cured grades, including Heirloom Red Virginia tips from 2013, aged ten years; matured Georgia-grown Red-Orange leaf from 2019; and Canadian Bright leaf from 2019, boasting an impressive sugar content of 28.5%. Together, these exquisite Virginia grades empower a kaleidoscope of complementary flavors, from baked goods and warming spices to brighter, citrusy highlights — all elevated by 31 Farms' Perique.
Components:
- GA-JRL-19: Red-Orange Virginia from Georgia, United States. (Crop year 2019, 17.72% sugar.)
- TH-13: Tips-grade Red Virginia from Virginia, United States. (Crop year 2013, 12% sugar.)
- CA-FL1 2019: Top-tier, lemon Bright leaf from Canada. (Crop Year 2019, 28.5% sugar.)
- Genuine Louisiana Perique from C&D's exclusive Perique farm (31 Farms) in St. James Parish. (Crop year 2022.)
Carolina Red Flake with Perique is enticingly cellar-worthy, with ample potential for aging. A dream-come-true for Virginia/Perique aficionados as well as a solid prospect for Virginia smokers, this blend is excellent for a range of smoking preferences and perfect for contemplative smoking sessions.
"Balancing deep undertones of port wine and stone fruits with highlights of pepper, spice, and citrus, Carolina Red Flake with Perique is rich, deep, and complex. It's how a Virginia/Perique flake should be."
- Jeremy Reeves, Head Blender at Cornell & Diehl
