Cajun Goodness
July 24, 2018
Product: Cornell & Diehl Kajun Kake 2oz
Cue that old Gervais Matte and the Branch Playboys music and sit for a minute cher. This blend really does an excellent job of highlighting that Louisiana leaf us Va-Per smokers love. The red virginias provide just enough sweetness fresh to offset th... Read More
e musty slight sour notes of the perique. The unflavored black cavendish provides a smooth mouthfeel and just tops this stuff off in the right way. I can tell with a year of age the perique will strengthen up the blend and the virginias will sweeten everything else up further to make a more bold and defined smoke with the same smoothness that i have not yet found in many blends . The mouthfeel is crreamy, I love it. Good any time of the day and needs negligable dry time. Breaks up and packs easy. Leaves very little moisture in the bowl. I wouldn't compare it to Chenet's cake as that stuff is definately perique foward. This one is not. This one uses the other leaf to highlight the subtelties of that black fermented leaf and brings it out in a good ol Cajun waltz. One of the best Va-Pers I have come across. Read Less

开罐有股泥土气息，不用太费力就可以装斗，前半段出甜较快，后半段辛辣的感觉较浓，半斗放置一段时间，风味有改变，决定放一段时间再看看变化，适口者珍
Strong and very tasty top-shelf Va/Per.
December 26, 2016
Product: Cornell & Diehl Kajun Kake 2oz
This mixture in tin is offered in a dark brown Crumble Cake Cut with a nice smell, easy to shatter and stuff, providing a good, steady burn. All three ingredients, Red Virginia, Black Cavendish and Perique, marry up very well, forming a powerful, har... Read More
monious blend. Virginia is the backbone and the healthy dose of Perique is fruity, spicy and a little peppery. The Black Cavendish mellows this salubrious blend and donates softness and sweetness. Nicotine is at a high level. Lingering aftertaste. Succinct, a flavourful, characterful, enjoyable high-end Va/Per mixture. Read Less

The only thing that struck me while smoking the first bowl was, if Guinness made a pipe tobacco this is what it would taste like! Not that it tastes like an extra stout beer but it has a lot of the same flavor profile. Hints of coco, molasses, coffee... Read More

If you haven't tried this yet, you really need too. This is easily one of my favourites to smoke.
Nice, little bit of kick, not heavy, and a creamy smoke with a slight sweetness to it.
I always have a few cans hiding around.
Just great!
very nice!

Tin note of pungent sweet, vinegar and spices. The black and dark brown Krumble Kake breaks apart and rubs out easily. Tobacco is moist and may need a little drying. Burns slow with few relights. The strength is medium to strong and nic is medium. No... Read More
flavoring detected. Taste is medium to full and consistent, with notes of mildly sweet dark fruit, dry earthy, bread, mild lemon, spices, very woody, burnt toast, mild raisins, bitter plum, a mildly sweet grassy background note, and a moderately peppery retro. Virginis Cavendish is leading with Perique closely supporting. Room note is tolerable, and aftertaste is great. Read Less
It's just not my taste

Product: Cornell & Diehl Kajun Kake 8oz
It's not a bad blend, but it's not what I'm looking for in a Va/Per.
Product: Cornell & Diehl Kajun Kake 8oz
Thick and rich. Stewed Red Virginia deliciousness with a gorgeous Perique backbone. Sweet glorious excess in every last puff. Brilliant tobacco. I can also attest to this aging beautifully. Such a wonderful rich tobacco.
Brick it

To describe this blend is to describe the easement of troubles of a difficult day. The components, in this blend, upon first light give way to quality and thoughtfulness of the blender and manufacturer who created it. This smooth, slightly sweet yet ... Read More
robust blend is marvelous without the first sign of aggression or rough edges. The Perique quantity in this is perfectly married to the Virginias so there isn’t any overpowering or oppression that can come with heavy Perique blends. I do wish they made this in 16oz bricks. Read Less
Maybe When Aged?
October 26, 2023
Product: Cornell & Diehl Kajun Kake 2oz
Perhaps if given ample time, this could be a quality VaPer. When new, however, the freshly opened tin smells like a highly trafficked animal barn and tastes like a perique farmer's ball sweat.

Product: Cornell & Diehl Kajun Kake 2oz
I'd like to say I wanted to try this but a buddy was giving away an open tin of this and I thought I should try it before passing it along. So I did. I believe the name is apt but the tobacco is...extra. it's extra extra. The tin is musty and that pl... Read More
ume around the tobacco did not encourage me much.
It tasted like the mouth feel you'd get from Jessie Pinkman's (Breaking Bad) salty chili powder. Chili powder yo, it's my signature blend b$#ch!
If you like Virginia periques, it's really good but that perique is hefty. Perhaps with 4-5 yr age on it I could see the blend mixing a bit better. Fresh tin though, dude.
It took to the light really well and I could see if burning to the bottom without relight but I couldn't handle it that long. Room note was very pleasant in the Charleston Low Country broil sort of way.
It's definitely not my jam and that could be because I've yet to appreciate the unique aspects of perique. But I'll be passing this along to the next victim. Sorry not sorry. Read Less

C&D Kajun Kake is the VaPer I have been looking for for years…
After 2 bowls I bought an 8 oz tin. This blend is distinguished from red VA Vapers by 1)a complete lack of any bite whatsoever, 2)flavor profiles changing throughout the bowl, 3) van... Read More

flavor but with that said, it is relatively strong to get your attention. When you are about half way through the bowl is when the flavors deepened for me. Wonderful richness. If you don't care for spice at all, this wouldn't be a good blend for you. If you enjoy a bit of spice, this is perfect. The sweetness tasted like a mellow cinnamon sweetness to tame and work with the spice. Well done on this one. This is a nice variation to add to my lineup. Read Less

Beautiful tobacco

Product: Cornell & Diehl Kajun Kake 2oz

If you have the option, age it for at least a year. You will find a blend with flavors across the spectrum: mustiness, dry red wine, mushroom, but also natural sweetness and orange rind. Smoke it slowly; it's a Va/per.

Product: Cornell & Diehl Kajun Kake 2oz
Cornell and Diehl Kajun Kake is listed to have Red Virginia’s and Louisiana Perique. Right out of the tin it’s a pressed crumble cake which I like to cut slices off and rubs out very easily. You have to be careful to not pack it to finely or the draw... Read More
will be much to tight. The tin note was hard to pick apart for me. Ultimately I settled on a rich dark Virginia smell. Others said they smelled candied cherries and sea water. I didn’t get that at all and sounded disgusting. In fact upon first light I tasted a heavy pepper flavor at first that eventually gave away to a smoother Virginia taste hinting at sweet. Throughout the bowl there was a heavy almost acrid flavor which I typically associate with cigar leaf. I also found that when I sipped slowly there was a bitterness on my tongue and when I sped up my cadence I got a more VaPer sweet flavor. There were familiar flavors in here that at times that made me think of this as escudo combined with Billy Bud or maybe Fillmore. Overall I liked it and wonder what it’ll be like with some age on it.

is what I imagined sitting at a camp fire by the bayou deep in the back woods of Louisiana cooking a rustic pot of spicy gumbo over the fire. Upon setting a flame to this blend and slowly pulling the flame down to dance on the tobacco, I was greeted with , spicy, sweet murky earth. That all blended together in a way that is just amazing. Smoked nice and slow while enjoying a quiet evening you get a very relaxing flavorful smoke, but beware, should you smoke to fast and not pay attention, Lady N will cast her voodoo curse on you.

Another fantastic va/p from C&D. Earthy and spicy with a slap across the face from lady N. Oh you don't like that? Come back to it after a year in the jar and you'll find a more mellow animal with a sweeter, fruitier old timey sort of taste.

tin I dry it out a little more. The flavor is tasty and medium/full and I can detect the perique from the first light. It gets really peppery around mid bowl but mellows out consistently for the final third and gives a great finish. The Va is subdued often by the perique but does maintain a nice balance and when I taste it I get earthy, bread like notes from it but no real sweetness, which is a very nice contrast to the McClelland va's I also smoke. I'd say there is a more than a good amount of perique in this as it leaves my tongue tasting peppery. Sometimes it almost seems like there are a few black peppercorns in my pipe with the tobacco, but I love pepper so that's fine with me. I have found no bite at all in this blend even if rushed a little but it does smoke better at a reasonable pace and sipped somewhat steadily. Burns down to a powdery grey and white ash and stays lit really well. There is a good bit of nicotine too, I love the way I feel after smoking this. I have craved a bowl of this daily since opening the tin and will probably be getting the big tin next order I like it that much. Read Less
