Cornell & Diehl - Irish Blessing.
Coarse ribbons, black in colour, with a herby/sweet/alcoholic aroma, and in keeping with a strongly flavoured aromatic arrived too moist.
The smoke from Irish Blessing isn't anything complex. Instead it's a basic, clumsy, sticky, aromatic. The honey-sweet, slightly herby, whiskey-sharp, Irish Mist leads in the flavour. This sits on top of the bungling, heavy, vanilla black Cavendish; with the honey from the 'Mist this completes the mucilaginous, gloppy, glutinous, character. But, I admit, in an aromatic I enjoy this 'indulgent' feeling! It burns cool, going at a slow pace, without any tongue bite.
Nicotine: mild. Room-note: lovely.
Irish Blessing? If you like your aromatics to be strongly flavoured, giving a gummy smoke, you'll enjoy this, I do! Highly recommended:
Four stars.

I will star with dryer is defiently better for aroamtic blends. I have been looking for a rich and smoke blend. A full good aromatic that dosen't leave me flat. And I found it with Irish Blessing. No more saying Hail Mary's oh where is a good aromatic? Now when I think of Irish blends I always think very sweet and wet and sticky. THe flavor is of Irish Cream and Coffee. Actuall a good blend to have with a piping hot cup of Joe. Irish Blessing isn't it is very dry and easy to li, puff slow burn very quick and easy to clean out of your pipe with a tap or two thats all it will take. The taste is sweet yet musky and very woodsey at times. Sort of reminds me of a campfire scent. taste. The aroma is wonderful pleasant to both the smoker and the passer by. The flavor starts out sweet and stays sweet and dry but every now & then gets a little spicy and new tasting about 3/4's of the way through the bowl which makes IB a very interesting smoke. IB will always smokes dry and not wet. Get this, just when you think you had enough of IB. You will then look to relight your bowl again at this time you relize you have smoked the whole bowl. And need to pack up another. I think that says it all? Good Stuff. The tobacco is all first class as always with C&D. Smells good in the tin and better lit.

The Irish Blessing is a delicious light aromatic flavored with Irish Mist all the way down to the last puff. Great tobacco and my wife loves it. Mild and smooth. Black Burley makes this a delicate and very comfortable smoke. Easily an all day blend.

After a 20 year hiatus from my pipe I recently decided to return. In my quest to find a pleasurable smoke I found this to be a very pleasurable, cool burning, sweet smoke. A pleasant room note has garnered the blessings of "the one who loves me" and not relegated to the "other" room. Upon smoking my 1st bowl I experienced pleasure from beginning to end. I went to relight and discovered it had burned clean and left me wanting more. This is, so far, my favorite.

This blend is exactly what it says it is. If you read the description, and it sounds good to you, you'll love it. A good dessert smoke.

This is a very satisfying unapologetic aromatic. It is a moist Cavendish with a strong aroma. No delicately flavored Virginias here. It burns cool and is unlikely to bite. It is pleasingly sweet, with an Irish Mist flavor that is consistent throughout the bowl but never overpowering. If you are a Lane's BCA fan (there are thousands) or of any Cavendish based, strongly aromatic blend, you'll like this. If you're an English or Virginia smoker who likes only the most delicate and refined aromatics this won't be for you.
