Comoy's - Cask No.11
A little too much VAs
If you are like me and get tongue bite from blends containing a lot of virginias then you might want to pass on this one and try Cask #1 instead. The VAs in this blend are a little bitey. On the other hand if you like very mild english blends with a healthy dose of VAs you should probably try this one. Quality tobacco at a nice price just not for me.
Comoy's - Cask No.1 3.5oz
Mild
This blend is ok. It is a very mild version of english. This blend could be an all day smoke both because it is not too powerful and it is very nicely priced for the quality of tobacco. It would also be good in warm/hot weather when heavier blends are a bit too much. I will enjoy the tin I have but probably won't buy anymore.
Cornell & Diehl - Mississippi Mud 2oz
Perfect amount of Perique
Pretty smooth, no bite, burns well, a little past medium nic content, and full flavored. This is a little one dimensional but it is a great one. Pretty much just smoky, leathery latakia and spicy perique but they are in perfect proportions. The BCav adds a little sweetness, body and keeps the latakia and perique from being overpowering. Very nice, unique change of pace for a full english smoker.
Captain Earle's - Nightwatch 2oz
Very nice, FULL flavored.
My tin was one year old. Very smooth, burns well, medium nic content, very full flavored, no bite. Smoky, spicy, leather, bitter, salty and dark chocolate. All those come together to form one really nice, very full flavor. Not as nuanced as Ten Russians but I still like it just as much.
Cornell & Diehl - Smooth English
Mild English
This blend burns well, has a light nic content, and mild flavor. Sweetness from the BCav, didn't taste much burley, smoky from the latakia, but I also taste a sour note. I'm not sure where that comes from. A little sour note is ok but not as a primary flavor for me. If you like mild, sweet, smoky and sour then you should try this.
