About This Pipe Tobacco

C&D's Pegasus is yet another from the master of classic American Burley blends, Bob Runowski. Three Burley tobaccos, two Virginias, and a touch of unsweetened Black Cavendish form a classic American blend, hearkening back to the days when Burley was king in American pipe tobacco blends.

A Truly Classic American Pipe Blend
August 14, 2026
By: Jarhead Jason
Product: Cornell & Diehl Pegasus Bulk
Cornell & Diehl Pegasus is a wonderful example of a traditional American pipe tobacco—straightforward, satisfying, and built around honest tobacco flavor. The Burley provides the backbone with its familiar nuttiness, earth, wood, and cocoa-like depth, while the Virginias add just enough natural sweetness to keep the blend balanced. The Black Cavendish softens the edges and gives the smoke a little extra roundness without turning Pegasus into an aromatic. What I enjoy most is how comfortable this blend feels. It has that old-school American character that makes it easy to imagine as an all-day smoke: flavorful enough to hold your attention, but never so intense that it becomes tiring. Pegasus is not trying to be exotic or flashy. It is simply a well-made, dependable tobacco that delivers exactly what I want from a classic American mixture....Read More

Mellow Burley Perfection

Nutty, balanced, and creamy, Pegasus hits all the right notes. It burns easily and delivers mellow, flavorful goodness from start to finish. Easily my favorite Burley blend.

Pretty Good

Simple with a nice rounded mouthfeel from the black cavendish. A little sweet from the Virginia. Burley adds a nice mushroom note. I feel with a smidge of perique this blend would elevate. But that’s just my taste.

Pretty decent.

A little bready, a little nutty, and pleasantly earthy without becoming offensive. Pegasus immediately struck me as something very “old-school codger.” I can almost picture an old pipe smoker enjoying this in a classic American diner in the 1930s or ’40s after a breakfast of eggs and bacon, with a black cup of percolated coffee sitting beside him. It has that kind of old-school Americana character. There’s a faint sweetness that develops down the bowl, occasionally reminding me of bittersweet chocolate chips. Overall, though, Pegasus is remarkably consistent — and fairly one-dimensional — from beginning to end. At times I get a flavor that reminds me of C&D’s Briar Fox, which I assume comes from the Burley component. The difference is that Pegasus is considerably more pleasant to my palate. Briar Fox struck me as terribly flat and boring, whereas Pegasus at least has some character. Bob Runowski’s review/explanation recommended smoking this in a deep, narrow bowl, so I loaded it into a Lovat with a relatively taller bowl. It behaved nicely enough and smoked without any real issues. Runowski also said he was attempting to recreate something reminiscent of “Bond Street” with Pegasus. Bond Street isn’t a blend I’ve ever tried, so unfortunately I have no frame of reference for how successful that recreation or reinterpretation is. All I can say is that Pegasus definitely tastes like something good from another era....Read More

Excellent, cannot say much more

Product: Cornell & Diehl Pegasus Bulk
I like many others do not have an unlimited budget. When I found Peterson‘s Sherlock Holmes, I knew that was the blend for me. But I can’t afford to be buying tins all the time so I normally go with the bulk blends. After a lot of research, I narrowed it down to Pegasus and I am thrilled with this product....Read More
