Cornell & Diehl Three Friars

I do not give out 5 stars loosely but this is just a great tobacco. It's simple, tasty and satisfying. There is just something about it that does it for me. It's quality leaf and just a well made blend of Burley, Virginia and Perique. Its mostly Burley forward with a little sweetness from the Virginia and a hint of spice from the Perique. It's great with coffee, great with a drink...anytime. Has a bit of a nice hit and is something like an OTC blend on steroids.

All day smoker, and my favorite C&D blend. I have been through pounds of this over the years. I'm a big fan of many blends from C&D but this is the one that finds its way into my pouch the most.

I prefer C&D's rustic approach to tobacco. No topping. No casing. No flavorings. No B.S.. Just tobacco.I also prefer the nuttiness of the Burley to the sharpness of D.F. The Virginia and perique are tangy sweet.. Take Bayou Morning, add Burley and remove a little perique. Or Telegraph Hill and add a little Burley. I recently purchased another wildly popular VaPer. Disgusting. Warm,sugar flavored air.... with a little perique. If you like tobacco, this stuff is pretty damn good.

I like a variety of choices with my pipe tobacco, but I find myself choosing Three Friars most everyday at least once, sometimes more. Good stuff.

Not much of a tin note, a mild sweetness. As far as taste I find it a tad bland, however I like med-strong latakia blends, which this is not.

This is a very nice blend with a suttle not to strong earthy flavor I especially enjoy the addition of perique

good but i like tobacco a little stronger

A nice nice blend with good balance. Consistent through the bowl. Strength is mild/medium. I like it fine as an occasional smoke, it doesn't have the mouth feel I'm looking for to be in the regular rotation.
