I think I've found my new daily

November 08, 2026

Product: Cornell & Diehl Crooner Bulk

Gonna start buying this stuff by the pound! It's well blended, the burley really shining through, but with just enough of this delicious deertongue to make it a real blend. I don't get vanilla or mint: I get baking spices! And oh such good spices they are to go with the cube-cut burley blend base: a little cinnamon — almost cinnamon roll, with some breadiness to it — a little nutmeg, the tiniest hint of clove, but all sorta melded together into a super spice, and minus any heat or burn or numbness from the actual spices.

As a blend on its own, my preferences and apparent love of deertongue aside, I feel it's very well done. C&D's cube cut burley makes for a good base, being a blend of burleys, and the deertongue is mixed at just the right proportion for an everyday smoke; I might take more deertongue on occasion, but for a daily driver/first experience, this seems about the right intensity. No burn issues: no over-expansion when charring (looking at you, PS41), no trouble keeping it lit, doesn't burn hot unless you make it, and easy to find the flavor for my beginner's palette.

My cudos to the blenders at C&D, I think they knocked it out the park with this one. Yes, I know it's a pre-existing recipe, but they still have to select exactly what tobaccos they use for it, and I think they selected well...Read More

Must try for the Burley fan.

Not going to lie I was drawn toward this blend because of the Bing Crosby affiliation first and at the time of purchase I was more of an English smoker with a less refined palate.

I’ve finally gotten around to smoking this a year or so after purchase ( I’m now also more of a burley fan). If you like good burley you owe it to yourself to try this don’t let the deer tongue scare you off unless you’re certain you don’t like deer tongue. The cut is more of a granulated cube very easy for a gravity fill, burns well and slowly. The burley is the star with the deer tongue being ever present. It’s got vanilla/mintiness but meshes well with the nutty/chocolate burley, on the retro hale its remind me of Neapolitan type flavor. It’s pretty consistent in flavor throughout the bowl, but if pushed fast does give a bit of cigarette ash flavor especially toward the end of the bowl. Good nicotine I’d say around medium noticeable but not overwhelming. Will be in my regular rotation....Read More

unreal!

This has to be one of the most unique flavors I've ever smoked. I'm more of a VaP/Kentucky kind of smoker and my tongue could never handle aromatic blends and all though this blend is not categorized as a aromatic? This to me is what a aromatic should be. It tastes like it smells like a fig/cookie with sweet grass with NO BITE. I have no idea how someone can give this blend a bad review? This was a GREAT surprise and is without a doubt in my daily pipe rotation now....Read More

Crooner, for burley lovers

August 05, 2026

By: Collin R.

Product: Cornell & Diehl Crooner 2oz

Moisture - perfect.
Strength - strong - not a mild burley, strong nic.
Cut - perfect for gravity filling your pipe, small pieces .1-.25 inch sq.
Burn - lights easily and burns well without needing relights.
Flavour- tastes of burley with nice deer tongue hits occasionally. Flavours meld toward the last 1/3 of bowl.
Overall- not sweet, not complex, just a good smoke.
Updated from 4 to 4.5 star
Smoked in a pot (Peterson 01) this tobacco really sings, I was a whole different smoke in the wide shallow bowl. Next I’ll try some in my 605 Peterson for an even wider bowl...Read More

Grandpa and his pipe were here. Reminds me of The Eagles and Elks Lodges and Christmas Santas, of the VFWs and the Masonic Lodges. It's smells like the past and it tastes the same.
