This is my daily smoke. When I first tried it I wasn't quite sure about it but over time it really grew on me. Virgina's out in front, cigar leaf coming in close second. I can always taste a hint of latakia but it's mildly applied. Not a hint of any ... Read More
added flavoring, you'll only taste pure tabacco. Easy to load and keep lit. I've never once been bit. It's stout without being overwhelming. For several years this has been my #1 smoke. Read Less
Fantastic: Blow Your Sox Off

Product: Cornell & Diehl Habana Daydream 2oz
The sweet and spicy Va/Per shines through the black Cavendish, Latakia, and cigar leaf mix, as a slightly spicy-sweet, hearty, and EXTREMELY satisfying whole; a serious relaxation blend! As a hard-core cigar smoker, seeing cigar leaf in this was what... Read More
first drew me to this pipe tobacco blend. That said, I still can't really tell that cigar leaf was indeed added to this pipe blend; it doesn't seem to taste at all like a cigar, let alone a Cuban one. However, it makes up for that with a power punch: In a large-bowl'd Meerschaum pipe, the effect is about equal to having a radical lobotomy; albeit a very tranquil, blissfully enjoyable, lobotomy. Thus, Habana Daydream is best purchased by the 8oz. unit, since this will likely become a regular favorite; it ages extremely well. Read Less
Hello Cigar Pipe!
May 26, 2019
Product: Cornell & Diehl Habana Daydream 2oz
Gentleman, you can stop searching for underrated blends right here. The cigar aficionado and Va/Per connoisseur path cross at Habana Daydream. Primarily it's the Va/Per that leads, but the flavor profile modulates, sometimes influenced by the Cavendi... Read More
sh towards a rich creamy smooth Va/Per, but frequently driven by the cigar leaf towards deeper savory notes of wood and espresso... topped with a subtle smokey Latakia for a sweet but robust and subtly complex smoke. The Latakia seems farther in the background in some tins and perhaps there is too much perique in others. I'm not sure how big that "spoonful" of cigar leaf is, but the cigar is upfront and "at attention". Seems like there's a good helping. No tongue bite, no matter how hardily puffed. If you enjoy a little cigar leaf this flavorful smoke will really hit the spot and leave you extremely satisfied. --- Four Stars! Good job, C&D Read Less

I like this better than Billy Budd. Maybe it's the omission of burley and the addition of black cavendish. It has superb taste and some creamy smoke.

我只灰过几支茄,全是古巴的。我竟傻屄地期待这玩意儿有古巴雪茄味。结果烟气没什么香味,还没香烟香,过鼻劲大。
Since I just have tasted little Cigar before, all of which are cubano. I falsely expected this blend would taste like cubano cigar, and it's not. Silly of me.
On the other hand, I could hardly t... Read More

This is the best tin I’ve had so far. I can’t reccomend it highly enough.
Meaty but well balanced

Product: Cornell & Diehl Habana Daydream Bulk
Strong tastes melded together well enough that reminds me of a meaty stew( it does not taste like that, rather Feels so). Smokey, Earthy with deep tones is all I can say with words. Really enjoyable though.
Smoke slowly

Product: Cornell & Diehl Habana Daydream Bulk
Habana Daydream is a uniqe tobacco for cigar-lover pipe smokers. But you should smoke slowly if you want to taste cigar leaf.

很久前买了一罐,在我想品尝的时候,因长期存放不当它变得干燥,用杰克丹尼加湿后慢慢享用,体验感良好,平衡舒适,微甜但整体不会给我留下太深刻的印象。
Product: Cornell & Diehl Habana Daydream Bulk
很不同的一款英式调配,味道层次分明,起初几口,L草味道明显,过鼻清爽,中段雪茄的味道出来了,随后V草的甜味也出来了,雪茄的味道一直到最后,中段时候会有一点辣舌,但很快就适应了,室韵非常好,一斗到底,意犹未尽,很喜欢。

Delicious blend. The Latakia and cigar leaf blend so well with the subtle Virginias. I have to restrain myself from smoking too much only because it's so good. A must-try.

Product: Cornell & Diehl Habana Daydream Bulk
I wasn't sure about this upon first smoke. A few days later it is my secondary in regular rotation. Very good smoke, good nic hit, burns well and leaves no mess. The cigar leaf is tasty if you smoke slow and cool. Enjoy.
Working through the same 2oz tin from 2010.
March 30, 2017
Product: Cornell & Diehl Habana Daydream 2oz
This is a good, but not great, blend. It doesn't have any "wow factor" for me. Much in the way that I've never found a cigar as pleasing as a pipe, this is less pleasing than other C&D cigar leaf blends. I pickup more than a "sp... Read More
oonful" of cigar leaf. Would be great for a pipe smoker trying out pipes. Or for someone that really likes the spice of perique and cigar leaf. I prefer the much more Latakia forward C&D cigar leaf blend, Billy Budd. I do find that I enjoy this much more in the warmer months. Read Less
A different English
January 18, 2017
Product: Cornell & Diehl Habana Daydream 2oz
Not really sure I would call this an English - you taste mostly the virginia & cigar leaf, VERY mildly smoky Lat. It is a quality blend, just does not blow me away - fairly one dimensional
Disappointing

Product: Cornell & Diehl Habana Daydream Bulk
Well, i like C&D Bulk- Blends, but this one left me quite unsatisfied. Of course, it has the right dryness, and it burns very well and even. But the overall Flavour was very unbalanced and harsh. You smell the Virginias, the Perique and the Cigar... Read More
leaf. No smell or taste of BC or Latakia at all. It is far less cigar- like as purple cow- it is just harsh and spicy. It remembers me cheap cigarette- tobacco, sorry. Nearly no developement while smoking. Very monochromatic. And only a small nic- hit at the end. I have expected more. I'd rather stay with Plantation Evening... Read Less
Good blend
December 24, 2013
Product: Cornell & Diehl Habana Daydream Bulk
It is well balanced, has good flavor and body. Virginias and perique are well pronounced, but the latakia and the cigar leaves stay very much in the background. For those looking for a cigar taste, they will hardly find it, but it is good.
Product: Cornell & Diehl Habana Daydream 2oz
It's a quality blend, and it's lame of me to throw in a nod to another in a review of this one, but it seems like it went for Fox's "Banker's" and failed. If I'm looking for a superb Cuban/VA, I pass on this one. The advantage is the cost. ... Read More
This is 4 dollars cheaper a tin than Banker's. So it gets some points for that, but it's only occassionally I want a taste like this, so on those rare occassions, I flip the 4 extra bucks. Read Less

rique, yet flavorful from the Cavendish and cigar leaf.
The moisture level is perfect right out of the tin and requires no drying and therefore no relishes if packed properly. I prefer a ribbon cut over any other, so this checks all the right boxes.

R BLEND??? And good lord this is an incredible smoke. This is absolutely everything I love about tobacco in one bottomless bowl of deliciousness. It don't bite, even when you lean on it, and gives huge clouds of the thick cigar or Burley smoke that I prefer to the thinner smoke of Virginias. This is like smoking an incredibly choice, well-aged medium cigar. Coming from a background of heavy Nicaraguan smokes, this is just a straight medium, and that medium is so, so good. Perfectly balanced. Yum. Just get it now. Read Less

Product: Cornell & Diehl Habana Daydream 2oz
The Latakia and cigar seem to compliment each other very nicely, while the VA gives it the sweetness you are used too. My only complaint and it’s no biggie, is that classic lingering cigar after taste. It’s pretty mild, but is the main reason I don’t... Read More

Not a typical English

Loved it. Won't make an everyday smoke, but just for a change - it makes a great smoke. It's like a combination of Balkan Sobranie with a Cuban cigar. Very savory and pleasant. And a very complex smoke.

This is a very good blend with the tastes that you would expect, and some that you wouldn’t. I think that there may be a better cigar leaf blend out there, but you’ll still enjoy a bowl of this.
Not an English, barely a Cigar blend

I just don't like Latakia in my cigar blends, I guess. There isn't enough cigar here to justify the name, either. Try Billy Budd Blonde for a significantly better cigar blend.

A great tobacco but I don't like latakia. I had hoped it would be unnoticeable but it was there and completely dried my mouth out. Remove the latakia and this would be 5 stars.

irritated the back of my throat. Never had that happen from other englishes before. Habana Daydream was something else. Light on the latakia. You can taste and smell the other tobaccos including the cigar leaf (maybe not as strong but still there). It is as smooth and creamy as a well made cigar. Habana Daydream reminds me of an old drugstore tobacco from 40 years ago called Marrakesh. Anyone remember that one? Yes. Habana Daydream is very enjoyable. Read Less
Year Round Blend
November 22, 2019
Product: Cornell & Diehl Habana Daydream Bulk
This is a nice cool and dry smoke. Light in Latakia, Perique fades in and out, and the cigar leaf builds to the end. A must try for a cigar smoker or someone looking to make the jump to Latakia without being overpowered.
