Cornell & Diehl Yaller Dawg
(2.29)
Containing Syrian Latakia some Turkish and both red and bright Virginia tobaccos, this is definitely a full "English" blend.
Notes: Discontinued Blend.

I smoked this tobacco many years ago, around 2003, and as far as I can remember it was terribly lean, without flavor, difficult to keep lit, it bit and had almost no latakia flavor at all, just a thin bright grassy Virginia. Good decision to discontinue it. I am writing the review just for the record.

I tried this blend because the label said it was contained heavy latakia. I opened up the tin and was takeb=n back by the fact it was golden in color and had an aroma (at leat to me) somewhat like Skoal. To make a long story short I tried this belnd on several occasions, in different pipes, the result was always the same. I find this to be an absolutely terrible blend. The only reason I did not return it was because I had lost the recipt.

Another English mixture that leans towards very light virginias, hence the name Yaller Dawg, because the tobacco is one of the lightest I've seen. The latakia element is hardly noticeable. Because of the light virginia proportion, I developed excessive tongue bite, but I always have that problem with light virginias. Like all the C&D blends I've tried, this comes on the dry side. Try this only if you can handle light virginias.

It seem strange that this is called a full english blend as full is not an adjective I would use in describing this , Light in colour and flavour it does provide an interesting range of flavours . Syrian latakia being such a delicate and subtle performer. An interesting blend none the less and worth a try on these hot summer days when a blend with the black stuff from Cyprus might be to heavy.

This blend has one of the most unusual cuts I have ever seen. It is so finely chopped (and so pale) that it resembles nothing so much as sawdust. Luckily for us it doesn't taste like sawdust--it tastes like tobacco, neutral with a little Virginia sweetness added to the mix from time to time.
