Woof!

Wow this packs a punch, right in the face! I thought the perique would bring a little sweetness to the table... I was wrong. I think I have found a beld that needs not a retrohale to taste what's going on. And even if you do, it blows your head clean off your shoulders. This one is for when you're out drinking. In a loud bar. I think I'll be adding a bit of Virginia to this to balance it out a bit....Read More
The Best C&D Burley Blend

Product: Cornell & Diehl Shandygaff Bulk
This blend is really amazing, it's my favorite of C&D's burley line up. The smoking experience is great, the bag I got was basically the perfect moisture and it requires few relights. Smoothness wise this blend is pretty middle of the road, not super smooth, but definitely not as harsh as some other burley blends. The flavor is fairly simple with a lot of depth, the burley is front and center, very nutty and bold. The oriental gives it a earthy and umami flavor, and the perique gives it just a little bit of spice; I think it's those flavors that combine into the ginger and salt flavor. I'm getting to the end of my initial 1oz order and will definitely be stocking up on this blend....Read More
Took A Gamble - No Regrets

So I didn't know what to expect with this one and started out with just 1oz to sample. I was very impressed. Didn't get the "salty sea air" from the description, but after smoking and looking up the tasting notes I immediately agreed when I read that it had flavors of ginger. It's not a ginger bomb pipe tobacco, but it's there and it's absolutely fantastic. I don't really know how else to describe it, but this is an excellent every day, all day codger burley blend - and at a great price. This is probably my favorite "under-rated" blend since nobody ever talks about it. No online hype, no hoarding or scalpers - just an easy to buy blend that's ready to smoke with no dry time. Burn well, stays lit, and doesn't bite no matter how hard you push it (and I do push it at times). I have special bulk jars that I use to rotate my favorite burley dominant blends, and I'm now including this along with Old Joe Krantz, Haunted Bookshop, etc....Read More

The C&D Bulk Library Project Shandygaff Smoking Popes rated 4.2 This blend is one of the old Atlas blends that CND now produces and is comprised of Burleigh perique and oriental. The aroma is actually very simple. It smells like tobacco. I know that can be frustrating, but it just smells like cured tobacco like you would smell coming out of the barn. It’s a slightly decayed vegetable smell mixed with dust and sunshine.  this is a blend. It’s actually been on my radar to try for quite a while, but I never committed to placing an order. I’m kind of glad I waited and got just an ounce to sample because generally if I’m trying a bulk blind, I’ll just go ahead and order 4 ounces simply because of pricing. Generally, you can get 4 ounces of a bulk blend for the same price of a 10 of 2 ounces. Shandygaff has a very like sweet tea taste and I really didn’t detect hardly any of the Perique or orientals . If anything there’s just barely any spicy bite. It’s very good burley tobacco - it is smooth and it’s classic. There’s really no way I can classify this beyond it’s a quality codger blend. At first it made me think of Carter Hall, which is a blend that I smoke most often while fishing, but without that little licorice and aniseed taste that I associate with Carter Hall. The more I smoked it the more I really felt like it was probably closer to Granger. It’s not a Granger clone. Don’t get me wrong. It’s just what I would say is its next-door neighbor. It’s nutty and it’s warm and it’s sweet, but it’s really sweet because there’s an absence of any sour or tangy element. I don’t really find any flaw in it. I just don’t really find it to be special. My rating : 3 This is the 73rd of 101 lens. I am reviewing for this project. ...Read More

Give this blend a try, it's smooth and tasty. I smoke mainly English and this fits right in. Glad I picked up a couple ounces, next order will be a pound.
