If this were a wine it would be a full bodied, perfectly matured Cabernet Sauvignon. A Virginia based blend with a subtle touch of Latakia which many find to be both a fine introduction to the world of English blends as well as a great mix for those who prefer a less dominant Latakia.

Wonderful

A dry cool smoke is the only way I can describe this. I have always liked the aroma and taste of English blends but found then to be overpowering. This blend is exactly what I have been looking for.

My everyday smoke

This is my everyday blend. Lord knows there are hundreds of English blends on the market, and even just from Cornell & Diehl there are dozens to choose from. I picked this one because I liked the name and the fact that it only had two component tobaccos listed. I find it perfectly balanced, with excellent smoking characteristics (lights well, packs well, burns evenly in a variety of sized pipes). It's not the most full-flavored or complex English, but it isn't trying to be, and it has just enough Virginia sweetness and peppery Latakia to be interesting to puff on while reading a book or winding down after a long day. Is it anything really special? Not really, but some blends just come together really nicely in their balance of flavor and aroma, and this is a fine example of one. Some blends are just so perfectly done (Dunhill 965 comes to mind), that they just hit the spot. Yale Mixture reminds me of the Dunhill blends in that it is excellent quality and smokes really really well. It will not blow you away, but you just may find yourself reaching for it again and again when you're not sure which blend you want to smoke....Read More

Cellared Vey Well

I just broke the seal on a 25 year old tin of Yale Mixture and it is delicious! The tin was puffed out, and the seal broke with a loud whoosh sound. I'm amazed at how moist and perfect the ribbons were, with a heady aroma. The blend is exactly as described here, with a light and delicious use of Latakia, not dominating but rather perfectly complimenting this savory and cool smoking blend. I'm anxious to buy a brand new tin of Yale as a comparison. But this 25 year old is one fantastic smoke. Buy some and cellar it for yourself. But be patient!...Read More

My “go to” blend!

I’ve keep reaching for this tin. Just about as pleasant a smoke as you can get. If you need a little something stronger drop a pinch of plumb pudding in it.

Really nice smoke for times when Latakia is desired but not craved. I’d put this at the light end of a spectrum with Red Odessa in the middle and Pirate Kake at the other end. Boola boola!

Bush league

Couple complaints... the cut of the Latakia is rough, kind of wierd and the leaf tastes subpar. I wanted this to be as good or better than Lancer Slices. Its not. It smokes okay. The virgina is aged and offers a terrific tobacco flavor. Better than any OTC burley product. The Latakia isn't constant, or terrific, but pops and shows here and there producing a reasonable effect....Read More

Ivy league or Bush league? Who knows?

Reminds me of Field and Stream but with a touch of coffee and cream. As I sit in my yacht and peer across the water to Long Island, I imagine that I could be president one day.

Light on the Latakia and Lacks Depth

February 23, 2020

By: James Marc R.

Product: Cornell & Diehl Yale Mixture Bulk

While C&D is known for producing stout mixtures, this was surprisingly lacking. A touch more Latakia, pressing, toasting and just a bit of invert sugar would do this wonders. It lacks depth and not only is the taste thin, but the body is too. Could be great if it was made like Lancers Slices... why not do it Jeremy? This has the potential to be a great Classic English Flake, but alas, it’s just a little more than loose, thin and unremarkable pouch tobacco....Read More

Pleasant Smoke

Good English blend with a light Latakia presence. The description didn't mention a topping, but I kept getting just the faintest whiff of vanilla. Very easy to smoke. Pairs well with light reading and bird watching.
