Cornell & Diehl - Engine #382.
When I opened this I didn't know whether it was an English, VaPer, Kentucky, etc., but the first thing to give an inclination as to what it was came from the identification of some greeny, yellow, twigs: deer tongue.
The Deer tongue has more of a vanilla taste for the first quarter. As the bowl burns it develops a herby quality, then it becomes bitter; this causes the low score. Out of the tobaccos the Burley gives the most flavour, but I get more Perique than I'd expected to. The Virginia's present, albeit quite boring, and the Cavendish gives a slight sweetness. It burns quite fast, and also quite warm.
Nicotine: medium. Room-note: tolerable.
Not my thing. Not recommended:
One star.

If you enjoy the taste of deer tongue please feel free to disregard this review.
I bought this on a whim in order to try the deer tongue herb.
I bought the bulk version and when I packed my bowl I noticed a tiny amount of the green colored herb and wondered if I would even be able to separate it's taste from the tobaccos. Immediately after lighting it the taste assaulted my taste buds with a sweet vanilla ish flavour and I thought it was fantastic! Ten minutes later the flavour became overpowering and was drowning out any flavour other than that of the deer tongue. I continued to nail down the flavour profile past the pseudovanilla but couldn't ID it past a sweet vanilla plus something anise like. Another fifteen minutes after that I found the flavour buildup sickening and put my pipe down with the realization I will never smoke another bowl of tobacco that has had deer tongue added to it.
It stayed lit very well, burned well, and had a unique flavour. Unfortunately not a flavour I enjoyed. I haven't smoked the pipe I used to test this blend and hope to God it hasn't ghosted.
