Cornell & Diehl Cube Cut Burley
(3.00)
C&D combines high grade white and dark Burleys from Kentucky, then make their own small-cut cubes. A light pack will reward you with a delightfully cool, and long lasting smoke. Regarded as a blending tobacco.
Notes: This was an Amar Blends Co. mixture. Cornell and Diehl bought the rights of all their old recipes.

What you see is what you get. I have purchased this blend on two separate occasions because I like an honest burley every now and then as a change of pace.
This blend is cube cut, packs easily and burns well. Like most C&D blends, it is dry in the bag, but, does not smoke particularly warm. I think this is a characteristic of all burleys, but this is a high end burley, more refined than most.
If you are a burley fancier and have not risen above Prince Albert type burleys, well, here's your chance to finally get a ticket into the first class section. If, however, burley is not your bag, then leave this bag alone.

The white and dark burleys combine to offer very light molasses, oats and cocoa, some earth and nuts, a touch of sharpness, and has a moderately toasty, slightly woody quality. It has a rather mild sweetness, and is mostly a dry smoke. The nic-hit is mild. Won’t bite, but can get harsh if puffed fast, and it does sport a little roughness. Burns clean at a reasonable pace with a very consistent flavor from start to finish. Hardly leaves any dampness in the bowl, and requires an average number of relights. The after taste is decent, and linger just a mite. Can be an all day, one dimensional work and play smoke that works better as a mixer. Two stars on its own, three as a mixer.

I am reviewing several C+D blending tobaccos as a precursor to some blending experiments. I know not many people blend, but these reviews may provide some hints to those wanting to do so.
Definitely a bit milder and slightly more earthy than the dark burley. It provides the kind of airy "toasty" yet bitter smell and flavor familiar to fanciers of this mutation. Probably a good balance to denser flavors of burley and va.

This was too harsh for me. I added it to a canister of OTC burley blends that I've been mixing together for the past year. My hope is that a good dose of C&D Cube Cut Burley will add complexity to the sweetness of the OTC Burleys. As much as I'd like to enjoy the C&D Burleys, I'm finding them too much for my taste. I'll leave them to the Veterans.
