Cornell & Diehl Golden Ash
(3.42)
Rough cut and cube cut Burley, Latakia and golden Virginia flake provide a mild English blend.
Notes: This was an Amar Blends Co. mixture. Cornell and Diehl bought the rights of all their old recipes.
Rough cut and cube cut Burleys combine with bright Virginia flake, cavendish and a small dose of Latakia to provide a natural, mild taste.

I mostly smoke straight VA flakes and ready rubbed. But occasionally, I get an urge to dip into the burleys that I started with because they were cheap and readily available when I first started smoking a pipe 40 years ago. Golden Ash is my go to on these occasions. It's stood the test of time with quality burleys, a hint of latakia (The latakia comes though a bit more strongly for me than it probably would for would for someone who regularly smokes latakia blends.) and enough VA to keep it from overwhelming my aging constitution with nicotine. Sometimes I mix it 2/1 with Sir Walter Raleigh to get the FGE (full granddad experience.)
