Strength: 4/5
Room note: 3/5
Taste 3/5
Subtle melody of Honey, deep, rich, and roasty.
Spiciness with hints of apple cider and dark brown sugar kind of sweetness
Cornell & Diehl Bijou is a flake-cut pipe tobacco that combines Turkish Katerini with vintage Virginia tobaccos to provide sweet and spicy overtones. To complete the blend and create a smooth, well-balanced, and interesting smoke, a light honey topping is applied. This medium-strength mix, which is a member of C&D's Cellar Series, smokes cool.
Virginia: Hay, black fruit, and citrus notes are found in vintage red Virginias along with sweet brilliant leaf. To bring out the dark sweetness and eliminate any harshness, the Virginias are steamed.
Turkish (Katerini): This small-leafed Oriental enhances the depth and richness of the blend with its flowery, fragrant, and somewhat spicy qualities. A curry-like spiciness from the Katerini has been mentioned by some reviewers.
Overall flavour: Katerini and honey contribute a woodsy, spicy, and sweet flavour that is both complex and recognisable. Over the course of the bowl, the flavour profile changes, and by halfway through, the honey becomes less apparent.
