Cornell & Diehl - Gentleman Caller 2oz
A fun blend with pleasing notes
I bought this blend not expecting a ton. I read descriptions and thought it might be a good change of pace, little did I know it would become a regular of mine. The tin note is one of my favorites and smells like vanilla. I get a nice vanilla and light dried fruit taste and the room note is pretty inoffensive. It is very mild nicotine wise so I would definitely recommend for beginners or those worried about getting spins from multiple bowls. I do wish there was more deer tongue in the blend, but that is my only minor critique. Definitely recommend this blend!

Cornell & Diehl - Bourbon Bleu 2oz
Great nuanced blend of Sweetness and Spice
I picked up this blend on a whim and my initial thoughts were that it was good, but not amazing. I thought the casing took away from the blend. Now, a few bowls later and my opinion has changed. It is sweet from the casing and a very smooth smoke with some nice spice. It is clear this blend is meant to be cellared for a while, but even after a few weeks of the cake sitting in the jar it has shown improvement. Definitely wouldn’t hesitate to buy again.

Is this real?
This blend is amazing!! I could end my review with the first sentence, but I want to opine a little longer. The presentation of little coins is very satisfying, you can crumble them or fold them into your bowl and you will be left with a great experience either way. To have a wonderful campfire aroma with some dried fruit and mesquite notes combined with a oh so subtlety spiced retrohale is an amazing combination. I really really I have the opportunity to buy more tins of this blend as it is definitely one of my new favorites. It is incredibly smooth. Such a good blend!!!

Warped - Cloud Hopper 2oz
A pipe blend for cigar lovers
This was one of the first blends I smoked when getting into pipes. Coming from a cigar background, I was very familiar with Warped as they make great cigars and this pipe tobacco is also impeccable. The criollo leaf in this blend is not overpowering, but noticeable. It gives you that slightly salty note which adds to the complexity of the blend. The ribbon cut is great for consistent humidity and I am very eager to see how this blend ages.

Cornell & Diehl - Carolina Red Flake 2oz
Dried Fruit & Spice
If you enjoy dried fruit notes with a little pepper on the retrohale, you will really like this blend. The tin aroma has subtle raisin notes and the tobacco comes out to a perfect humidity for smoking right away.
