Cornell & Diehl - Pegasus
Winner!
This is a really nice Burley blend. I like Old Joe Krantz Blue a lot, but think I may like this even more than OJK and Haunted Bookshop. It has moved to the front of my favorites. It is light, smooth and really tasty. If you are a Burley fan, this is a must try!
Molina - Shorty Black (MO1) (9mm)
Nice little shorty pipe!
Really nice little pipe! Perfect size for travel or adventure. It is a small pipe, but functions similar to my bigger pipes. The bowl can get a bit hot if you aren't taking your time. I will buy another in a different shape for sure.

I need to try this blend again.
Smells great in the bag! It smells great being smoked. I do not smoke a ton of aromatic blends and have found they lack the flavor I enjoy from a pipe. This blend didn't seem to provide enough flavor to interest me. I will try it again, and update my review. I prefer Burley and Virginia.
Peterson - Nightcap 50g
Nice!
Nice blend that hits the spot on certain occasions for me. I do enjoy an English from time to time. I really liked Old Professor but can't get it anymore. Nightcap is a bit lighter than Old Professor and seems to have the perfect amount of Latakia mixed. I always go to English when fall and winter months close in! Wish I could buy in bulk.
Sutliff - Pumpkin Spice
It was alright
I enjoy burleys and Virginia blends. I was feeling the fall vibes and gave this blend a try. It smelled wonderful and didn't taste too bad. Not a ton of flavor though. This blend would probably please the bystanders more than the smoker. Just my opinion but I am not an aromatic smoker. It is definitely worth a try if you like aromatics. Smells wonderful in the bag!!
Orlik - Golden Sliced 100g
Very delightful!
This slice is a very nice smoke! Takes a bit to find the right rubbed out consistency, but worth it. Love the citrus notes!
Cornell & Diehl - Old Joe Krantz Blue Label
Really Nice
One of my favorites! Nice and smooth! I have found myself only smoking OJK lately. It is a delight for sure. Bought in bulk to see how it ages. 1 year later, it is still my favorite in the rotation. I dedicated a pipe to this blend.
Cornell & Diehl - Bright Virginia Ribbon
Simple!
I just received this today and was impressed. It is light, a little citrus/grassy/bready. Very very happy. I ordered in bulk really wanting this to be a hit for blending and I am not disappointed. Light enough to be an all day smoke alone. It definitely dries your mouth out! It can burn hot and bite a little.
Sutliff - Frosty Mint
Minty Madness!
I could smell mint through the box! It is a very powerful minty smoke. It is kinda nice on occasions. Does mix well, but not too bad right out of the bag! Age mellows out the power in the mint.
Cornell & Diehl - Haunted Bookshop 8oz
Aged better? Might have received bad batch?
After being excited to try this blend, it initially smelled pretty bad-possibly mold?. I tried it and it smoked.....ok. I aged it for almost a year and it smelled a bit better and smoked a bit better. It is very mellow. I will try to buy the 8oz canister next, because I have a feeling there was an issue with the batch I received. I love Burleys especially OJK, so I will try a new batch.
Sutliff - 707 Sweet Virginia
Simply Pleasant
Sweet Virginia is a Very mellow tasty smoke. It is smooth and light for any time of day. Aging a few months takes a bit of the bite away. I will continue to buy this blend.
Sutliff - 526 - Old Professor
My go to winter mix
This mix is my go to favorite when it gets cold outside. It is smooth and tasty and I can typically smoke without relights. I enjoy English mixes and this is at the top of my list. Tastes great right out of the bag and gets better aged! Super pleased and glad this mix is available in bulk. Has a more spicy/latakia mixture compared to nightcap.
