Bold, Rich and Smooth
February 03, 2025
By: James Marc R.
Product: Cornell & Diehl Dark Fired Kentucky Bulk
Aside from the well-known and descriptive adjectives surrounding Dark Fired Kentucky, there are variances in quality which influence notes and mouthfeel. This is the good stuff. There's no harsh, overly oaky/smokey, bitterness. It's a bold and rich flavor of all that you expect but balanced. That richness of notes means you don't need as much for mixtures, unless you prefer it to dominate. It has a smooth mouthfeel and is quite stout in nicotine. I like this mixed with Burley Ribbon, White Burley, Yorktown and an equal 5% proportion of Chocolate Cavendish, then topped with Meletti Anisette Liqueur and honey bourbon. This adds great depth to Burley/VA mixtures....Read More

The Ultimate DFK
November 14, 2024

Product: Cornell & Diehl Dark Fired Kentucky Bulk
Honestly, this is the best DFK I've tried (and I've tried 'em all). I love the smoky flavor, and the moisture content was perfect.

I found the smoky notes a bit similar to latakia, to where I'm more to Latakia. This of course are stronger than Latakia

Darky, Smoky, Naughty

I just had a smoke of this. A darky, smoky, naughty, beefy pipe of it. Del-i-cious. 5 stars. (smoother than MacBaren's HH Old Dark Fired).

My Sidekick
November 22, 2023
By: Godfather
Product: Cornell & Diehl Dark Fired Kentucky Bulk
I love this DFK, it's my go-to on almost all of my home blends. Most of the prior assessments here in respect to it's smokiness are accurate to a degree, it'll vary from person to person of course. Personally, I like to add 10-15% into my blends. If you have some aromatics etc that need waking up as well, try a pinch or two. Intense bag note!.. No joke, before even opening my mailbox I could smell it's goodness radiating out of the package! Curious now, on what the delivery guy must have been thinking. ;)...Read More

Has become a favorite

Product: Cornell & Diehl Dark Fired Kentucky Bulk
I began ordering the C&D Dark Fired Kentucky as a standby for when the Cube Cut Burley was out of stock, which it often is. It has since gained equal status. The DFK has a rich, smokey depth that I truly enjoy. It is, to me, full-flavored and satisfying without being harsh. Definitely a fine smoking experience. Now if only Smoking Pipes would get the Granulated Perique back in stock......Read More

very nice!
January 07, 2023

Product: Cornell & Diehl Dark Fired Kentucky Bulk
Jar note of barbecue, smoky, and wood. The dark brown tobacco is ribbon cut, or a well tumbled out flake. Moisture is on the dry side. No prep needed. Burns slow once lit, with a few extra relights. The strength is medium to strong and nic is medium. No flavoring detected. Taste is medium to full and mostly consistent, with notes of smoky, earth, spicy, very woody, musty herbal vegetation, mildly sweet (and gets a little sweeter later), mildly buttery, dry, a mildly bitter nutty background note, and a moderately peppery retro. Room note is tolerable to strong, and aftertaste is great....Read More
