Cornell & Diehl

For centuries pipe smokers have been enjoying the taste and versatility of flake tobacco. Sliced into strips, flakes not only provide a generally richer, fuller taste by melding the flavors and oils of the component tobaccos, the slices allow the smoker a control over the burning characteristics not available from ribbon cuts. One can partially or fully rub out the flake or simply fold it in the full flake form, depending on mood and circumstances. Cornell & Diehl is pleased to offer our ever expanding line of flake tobaccos for your smoking pleasure.

Arguably the most famous of Louisiana's antebellum mansions, and certainly the most immediately recognizable, Oak Alley is a splendid namesake for this cellar-worthy, new American standard. After establishing an impeccable partnership between sweet Red Virginias and white/brown Burleys, discreet amounts of Perique and Katerini Turkish are added to enhance both the flavor, as well as promote the coolest smoke imaginable for this Cellar Series blend.

Comment:

A lightweight, puckered, all-cotton fabric, seersucker became a staple of the Southern gentleman's wardrobe after Joseph Haspel fashioned the first suit from the material in 1909, as a way of stylishly combating the blazing New Orleans summer heat.
A spicy blend of cigar leaf and other choice tobaccos, we hope this Cellar Series blend will line your cellar much as its namesake fabric once did the streets of New Orleans.
Estimated peak: 7-10 years.
This blend was originally released in July of 2016.
