Cornell & Diehl Speakeasy
(3.08)
From the roar of jazz music to the revel of old and new friends alike, New Orleans' speakeasies are not subtle establishments to say the least.
With colorful cocktails lining the bar and wisps of smoke dancing the dim light, these retro bars embody that daring spirit of one of the city's most iconic eras — something Cornell & Diehl sought to capture in their bold, Cellar Series take on the traditional Navy flake: Speakeasy Navy Blend.
Estimated peak: 10-15 years.
Notes: First introduced in July, 2016.

Very nice to look at in the can . Nice cut and a pleasure to pack into the pipe . The flakes are supple and easy to work with . No tin note that I could make out . So far , so good . The problem is that it had no taste at all , only smoke and that's all . I had two smokes , both in seasoned Barling pipes but nothinh happened , just smoke . I know my taste buds are working because earlier I had some Vauen#14 and that sure had great Virginia taste . I wonder what all these other reviews are about . Maybe I am missing something but I think not . I know that this is a cellar series tobacco but in 15 years I will be close to 90 .I would rather get something that gives some taste right now .
