Cornell & Diehl Nutty Irishman

(2.59)
Imagine a bottle of Frangelico and a bottle of Irish Mist having a head on collision and you'll have an idea of the flavor and aroma of Nutty Irishman, though the end product has a uniqueness that goes beyond the characterization.

I get a little toast and nut flavor from the earthy, woody burley, but a lot of it is covered up by the toppings. The Frangelico has an essence of hazelnut that I barely notice, though the Irish creme is more obvious. I see a little black cavendish in here, but it must be unsweetened because I'm only getting brown sugar from it. The strength and nic-hit levels are mild. The taste is in the center of mild to medium. It's a little moist, and may need a slight dry time, but it burns cool and clean at a moderate rate with a mostly consistent, if fairly routine taste. Leaves a little moisture in the bowl, and requires a few relights. Won't bite or get harsh. The pleasant after taste and room note are weak. It's pleasant enough for a work day smoke.

A very boring tobacco that gives off a sweet scent pre-light. As soon as it is lit the sweetness is revealed to be but a scent, not a taste. The nuttyness it's named after is nowhere to be found, it's all a dull taste of ash that is quite unpleasant. Never again.

I read the description of this blend and wanted to like it. I love Frangelico in a brandy snifter, so thought Nutty Irishman should be a wonderful aromatic.

I bought 2oz and thought it smelled wonderful in the bag. It seemed like a cross between Frangelico (hazelnut liquor) and Bailey's Irish Creme. I loaded a bowl and at first light thought it had a chemical taste. I hoped if I smoked the bowl down, it might get better, but it did not.

I've also had experiences where a second bowl is sometimes better than the first. I filled and lit another a few days later and NOPE! It was still funky and had a chemical taste. I didn't taste hazelnut, irish mist or anything else for that matter. It was just bad, and I'm sad to say it.

I love aro's and about half of my regular rotation is comprised of them. Nutty Irishman will not be a keeper for me. I don't even plan to finish my 2 oz bag.

I purchased 2 bulk ounces of Nutty Irishman from a local tobacconist. The pouch note is very sweet and smells of artificial hazelnut, overripe banana, white chocolate, and booze. Upon initial light, the taste and aroma are sweet and mildly nutty. The burley is woody and creamy, but overall has little character otherwise. The black cavendish offers a thin-tasting, metallic sweetness that could also be attributed to the heavy, artificial topping. At the bottom two thirds of the bowl, an ashy, peppery taste is prevalent. The ribbon cut was a bit moist for optimal smoking and gave me tongue-bite. After drying, it smoked much cooler and took less effort to keep lit. Nicotine strength is very mild and could be puffed on an empty stomach or all day long. Could be used as a blender, as the topping could easily suppress other less-than-desirable tobaccos, but not recommended otherwise.
