Cornell & Diehl Bayou Morning Flake

This is my favorite, but I just wish P&C would not send me Bayou Morning when I order Bayou Morning Flake. They've done it twice now, recently, and I've switched to Exhausted Rooster. Yes, I've mentioned this, no reply.

I've smoked many blends...this is my favorite. It is perfect for me.

I have it every time I’m outside for an extended period. In my

It just reeks of everything good about the south.

It's the best smoke for me. Great flavor and not harsh on your throat.

What a great smoke! Something that I think may improve a great tobacco blend, is to dry it out just a little. It seemed a little too moist to me. Only other wish I have is that it would come in bulk.

A nice sliced flake; sweet tin note. Medium smoke as you'd expect. A more robust flavor, nutty but smooth. Bowl gets better as it smokes down. With a good kick at the end. As a novice pipe smoker, I had to remind myself to go slow, as this is a strong flavored smoke. A bit different than the other Va/Pur's I've smoked, but that's a good thing.

This is the sort of Va/Per blend I've been looking for for quite a while, now. I wanted something fragrant, but not sweet; something flavorful, but didn't leave a heavy aftertaste in my mouth. C&D Bayou Morning Flake qualifies on all counts. Bayou Morning is a good alternative for the pipe smoker who's looking for something other than the usual latakia/Balkan blends. Or, for that matter, for the one who's looking for something a little more robust than the usual vanilla/cherry/Cavendish heavy blends. All in all, a smoke to settle back with while reading a good book, or just sitting on the deck in the evening while the sun goes down.
