Cornell & Diehl Warped: The Haunting.
(3.00)
The Haunting is unlike many other cigar leaf-based pipe tobaccos, which often contain Latakia — instead, The Haunting consists primarily of cigar leaf and Virginia tobaccos, showcasing the delicious cigar notes and complementary sweetness of the Virginias. It's a blend that bridges the gap between cigars and pipes, catering to cigar and pipe smokers alike.

Here is the Second in the Warped lineup: The Haunting. This is actually the first blend they released on Halloween 2020 I believe. Not much of a tin description on the tin itself except that the blend contains Dominican Criollo leaf and Virginias. The tin is interesting, and opening up I found a mostly even ribbon cut, which is yellow and light brown in color. The tin note smells of oatmeal, maybe oatmeal cookies, raisins, rich hay, citrus, and leather. It came at the perfect moisture for smoking right out of the tin. It was easy to pack and light.
Once lit I taste the Dominican Criollo: soft, herbal, floral, and slightly leathery. The Virginias appear to be bright, and I can taste a lot of citrus, hay, sugar. What's interesting is the floralness floating throughout the smoke, it matches perfectly with the inherent citrus coming from that Virginia. An interesting way to blend Cigar Leaf to be sure.
For taste I give this a medium. It doesn't give a full body and it is right in the middle in terms of taste. The strength is also a medium. I don't necessarily feel the nicotine and I haven't eaten yet. The room note is subjective, but I think that it is a bit stronger than your typical straight Virginia blend. All in all, I like this blend but I wouldn't call it an all day blend for me.

Yep it tastes like a cigar: (at least as I remember) the Dutch Masters with the Cameroon wrappers I smoked many years ago. Your opinion may vary depending on your familiarity with cigars.
