About This Pipe Tobacco

Fans of Cornell and Diehl may not be familiar with William Serad, but they may know his work. A longtime friend of C&D founder Craig Tarler, the two were frequent collaborators. Serad is responsible for creating several classic blends such as Cross-Eyed Cricked and Red Carpet. William was also a friend of the rabbi Ira Stone, who loved Burley, Oriental and Perique mixtures and asked Serad to put together some blends for him. Those blends eventually became the Hebraica series, each featuring the rabbi's favored components. Each blend in the series was named by Stone, inspired by the language and spirituality of Jewish tradition.

Boker Or, or Morning Light in English, takes a base of rich Orientals and stoved Red Virginias and combines it with bold Perique and sweetened black Cavendish to create a balanced blend that pairs perfectly with a cup of strong coffee. In 2022, Cornell and Diehl established an exclusive partnership with 31 Farms to provide smokers with access to 100% St. James Perique, now included in every blend that contains the unique varietal.

Solid Oriental Blend
June 08, 2025
Product: Cornell & Diehl Morning Light: Boker Or 2oz
This is a blend that I have had for quite some time and I don’t smoke it often but when I do I always wonder why I don’t. Very nice oriental forward blend. Starts off pretty spicy, but then you might expect that from an oriental heavy blend with a decent helping of perique. The initial retrohales will wake you up for sure. But it settles down nicely and really shines in the second half of the bowl. Not really sweet, but satisfying nonetheless. Good flavor, if you like the components. The black cavendish seems well used, as it doesn’t detract from the blend the way it sometimes does, with a chalky kind of taste. It seems rather just to soften this up a tad. Probably doesn’t have the best room note (I can never smell anything I am smoking while I am smoking) but that may be the biggest drawback, if it is one at all. If you don’t fancy orientals, this probably isn’t for you, but it is definitely a good replacement for a proper VaPer if those aren’t your morning cup of tea. Solid blend....Read More
A fantastic non aromatic
March 25, 2025
Product: Cornell & Diehl Morning Light: Boker Or 2oz
Smells great right out of the tin. Reminiscent of raisins, plums or dark fruit. Smokes very well and is extremely pleasant. Fruit flavors are there and still prominent but there is also a pleasant spice that accentuates the other flavors there. Very flavorful smoke and didn't need a lot of relights. I can't say enough about how the perique and the orientals work together in this blend....Read More
Hit or Miss Blend
January 04, 2025
Product: Cornell & Diehl Morning Light: Boker Or 2oz
As far as I concerned this is a true 3.5 stars blend. Orientals take the main stage providing certain overripe and musty taste, which I’m afraid I don’t enjoy all that much. Perique follows in close support providing its usual spiciness. Virginias and Cavendish add a bit of sweetness but I’m afraid I cannot really taste them in the mix.
Blend is not pipe dependent. Tasted pretty much the same in briar or meerschaum regardless of pipe shape.
I believe this blend is a hit or miss kind. It is really difficult to make any recommendations. I think that any lover of Oriental leaf should try it at least once to determine whether the Orientals here will suite his fancy or not.
Personally, there are other oriental blends that I prefer much more.

O M Goodness!
October 05, 2023
Product: Cornell & Diehl Morning Light: Boker Or 2oz
The most perfect pipe tobacco blend I’ve ever tried. Mellow, luscious Virginias with the raisin-esque Perique. The orientals provide the handsome leather like earthy flavor. The cavendish has the sweet like flavor that bounces off the Turkish. Listen, pipe smokers, this is solid GOLD! Here’s more; One of the most perfect blends ever! Has a handsome aroma for a full flavor blend. Morning light also goes extremely well with your morning coffee. It certainly would be nice to purchase this blend in a large tub, or bulk. Five solid stars. This blend is sultry, and delicious. Goes quite well with Mayorga Mayan blend whole bean coffee, or Black Rifle Blackbeard’s. I smoke this at 0430 every morning whilst sitting in a rocking chair. The very best pipe tobacco to pair with your morning coffee....Read More

The first time I tried this was one morning standing on the shors of Lake Champlain in Vermont, this tobacco in conjunction with a morning coffee or in my case earl Grey tea in the right environment, you will never forget, it's that good
