Cornell & Diehl Stovepipe
(2.71)
A trail of bright and red Virginias winds its way upwards, ascending to a summit of perique, dark burley leaf, and black cavendish. Lightly topped with flavors of cocoa, caramel, and vanilla, it makes for a sublime, exhilarating smoke.

Cornell & Diehl - Stovepipe (Appalachian Trail).
I chose this as my Sunday Aromatic and I'm glad I opened it!
In the tin Stovepipe is presented as quite sharp looking, mucronate, pieces. It's nothing like most ribbons; some are borderline shag, yet others are closer to a broken flake. This is in a world of its own! It doesn't appear to contain any black Cavendish, it's all medium and light browns. The smell from it has a clear caramel sweetness and my moisture was perfect.
Stovepipe takes to the flame very easily, and gives a steady, consistent, quite cool, burn. At first light the caramel takes the lead, the vanilla and chocolate are easily its understudies. The vanilla and chocolate join in after a short amount of smoking time, a few minutes, and bring a chocolate-creaminess to the profile. Where the tobaccos are concerned the leader is the rich, fruity, red Virginia. There's a notable amount of freshness from the lighter Virginia, but not quite as much. The Burley has a definite presence, but the Perique is WAY DOWN in the pecking order. Black Cavendish? Not there! Although Stovepipe has plenty of added flavours it remains free from bite.
Nicotine: above mild. Room-note: lovely.
Stovepipe? A splendid aromatic worthy of four stars:
Highly recommended.
