Fantastic! Thank you for posting this. It's fascinating to watch the process at work, and the people behind it.
It has the look of a business that was built from the ground up and now has grown to producing a huge variety of blends. Cornell & Diehl was one of the brands I discovered at Smoking Pipes (from a free sample) and have always been able to find something new that matches my tastes in tobacco. It was interesting to learn the lengths of time spent in each press. I never realized that is went through multiple pressings. Very informative!
At 3:08 he writes on the tobacco block with a sharpie? Then that same tobacco presumably finds itself in the blends? Well, if I get a bowl with a hint of burnt sharpie ink at least know I'll know why.
@IB: he's writing on parchment paper that covers the block during pressing and then is removed before cutting.
Thank you Sykes and the rest of the SP.com Team for making these videos.
The customer experience of your website is top notch and these videos just help to confirm this.
