This is a really nice smoke and one of my favorite C&D blends. I put it up there with Three Friars for all day smoke-ability. I will definitely keep some in stock. I updated this to add the fourth star.

Has a decent amount of nicotine but it leaves your breath swampy. The room note doesn't smell bad, though (if you like English blends).

This is one of my top favorites go-to VaPers for a morning smoke, along with H&H Louisiana Red and Anniversary Kake. Just strong enough to keep things very interesting for me without getting bowled over with the nic or the perique. The perique is a strong presence but the blending makes it palatable, not overwhelming. And it's a sweet, tasty baccy. This is my favorite C&D blend thus far.

I echo LionWolf53. I love this. Nice strength which is the absolute key for me with any tobacco. Nice perique taste. A little sweet Virginia comes in half way down the bowl. Again another home run from Cornell & Diehl. All day smoke. I gotta try Bayou Night.

Started smoking Vapers about a year ago.Tried Kajun Kake. Found I really enjoy the mix of sweet Virginias and spicy Perique. Bought Bayou Morning about 6 months ago and it has become my all day smoke. It never fails to satisy. Others here have said it better than me. A great smoke...

I really enjoy this blend. I've had my tin of it for a year and just opened it today and tried it for the first time. I really liked the aroma it had in the tin and found it to still be a little damp so I took out a bowls worth and let it dry a little before I loaded it. When I lit it and took the first puff I was in heaven. I like the full flavor and the smokey, peppery bite I got from it on my tounge. After smoking it for about 5 minuets I had to set my pipe down because the nicotine kick crept up on me and kicked my in the head. I thought I was gonna have to take a nap but I wasn't upset. Mid way I noticed a nice sweet and sour taste with a kick of peppery bite. You gotta sip on it though or you'll go reeling it's got a nicotine kick but not like C&D's Night Train. I really enjoyed my fist experience with this tobacco. It burns well and has a great flavor from start to finnish. It's good for relaxing with a cup of coffee or a glass of whiskey. It's a good Va/Per but I don't know about an all day smoke.

Other reviews say it better than I could, a nice Vaper of good quality that behaves well. Just others out there I like better so a good three star it gets.

Mostly Red Virginia and perique, smoked on a peterson canadian and a CAO meerschaum. is sweet and peppery for most the smoke, it will bite if is push hard like any other virginia. Is it an all day smoke? well that depends how nicotine you like in your blends because this one packs a punch but nothing that will leave you lightheaded smokes better in mid size to large bowl in my opinion.

This one is a winner in the VAPER categorie.

For me this is hearty blend which I like. I love packing this stuff in a large pipe with one match you get a big puff of white smoke like from your rifle. Good tobacco taste with the right stuff in the perique department just enough to make you kill anything in your nose and like it. And the price is right!

When I first opened a recently-sealed mason jar of this stuff (I bought 4oz, but couldn't wait to try it - so it isn't aged), I noticed a weird and wonderful aroma kind of like fresh peat and a hint of vinegar. I know others have mentioned the vinegar smell, and it is there, but it goes away on lighting and there is no vinegar flavor I can tell. [EDIT: As I progress through my supply I notice this smell basically goes away after the first few bowls, so I recommend leaving the tin or jar open for a little bit when you first unpack it.]

It packed very well, and lit easily. It burns evenly and smoothly, with no tongue bite. The nicotine in this is stronger than what I usually have been smoking, a VA flake, which I assume comes from the perique. The perique is not so pronounced as some VA/Per I have tried, which is good since I enjoy the spiciness and depth of the Per without being so overpowering (although it is strong...)

The first 1/3 bowl was odd, with a definite earthy taste, but as the bowl burnt down it mellowed into a truly enjoyable experience. The tobacco burns quickly, but not hot, which is interesting. In fact, it is one of the cooler burning blends I have tried.

All in all, if you like VA/Per blends but want a rich flavor without being dominated by the perique, I recommend this blend heartily.

EDIT: This has become one of my favorite blends. I don't get tired of it.
