CD 石楠狐狸
生草：果味很重，明显的酒韵
香气：坚果、奶油 、干草、坚果 、黄油、饼干、炭火、烘焙可可的香气、一点泥土、偶尔会有一些SG黑狗屎的气味，烧秸秆的风味、可可、杏仁、花香、焦香。
口腔里面的味道是：果甜、甘甜、会有些许的咸口、慢慢的果酸开始加强。口腔里面过了30分钟，尼古丁开始出现这种苦苦油油的感觉，大体就是尼古丁感觉就像。是SG黑狗屎的口感。
整体烟气轻飘 过半斗之后会开始变得浓郁，风味明显过鼻，醇厚无刺激，会有些许的余韵。半斗前是以V草为主线，半斗之后呢，基本上都是白肋的风味。... Read More
尽量抽慢一些，不然会有麻舌的感觉。劲道尾段会有明显的体现，PS：注意你刚收到狐狸需要你陈放很长时间才能给你愉快的体验，如果你和我一样迫不及待想感受它真实的风味，告诉你一个好方法，选择一块2OZ的揉散，小心存放半年到一年的时间，就可以慢慢提前享受这款斗草了 Read Less

This is one of C&D's core blends for a reason. Throw a rock and chances are you'll hit 1 or 2 pipe smokers who've tried it. And at the end of the day, it seems to elicit a love it or hate it response. I love it for many reasons. Firstly, I'm a bu... Read More
rley man through and through, and BF delivers. Secondly, it brings the nic and the strength without blowing out my palate for the day. And last but not least, this is a very simple blend that takes very little thought. It's best sipped, especially in a Missouri Meerschaum cob of absolutely any size. I can smoke bowl after bowl of this while drawing up spec sheets and doing paperwork. Awesome blend again C&D! Read Less

Excellent smoke straight from a 4/2018 tin. Wow! The spice is amazing and the burn was even. I was smoking with a clenched bent while putting up Christmas lights, so I was not sipping. Burned to the bottom and was nuanced the whole way.

I am a big fan of C&D blends on average and years ago Briar Fox was my introduction to the brand. It is among my favorite blends. My first experience was a dried out sample that was still pretty decent followed by a tin which was excellent. As tim... Read More
e went on I noticed different tins had their own peculiarities. Differences in sweetness and nuttiness which I figured were normal in the way a blend could vary though some had little sweetness at all while still being enjoyable. So recently I opened a nicely sealed 16 oz block I had been cellaring since 2016 with a production date in 2015. It was darker in overall color than normal and smelled slightly different as well. though was clearly in good condition. When I finally got around to smoking it it was rather bland and tasteless unlike anything in my prior experience with the blend. It's as if it was watered down with unsweetened cavendish, though only a guess as cavendish is not officially a component of the blend. This got me thinking about several negative reviews I've read about Briar Fox over the years which did't seem to make much sense until now. It seems that what might be happening is that on occasion they get the formulation wrong accidentally or alter important additions for other reasons. If this is the case it would explain the inconsistency. On average this blend is excellent but on occasion you might get part of a bad batch unless they've remedied this problem since 2015. In all fairness most of what I've smoked in recent years has been younger than the bad batch in question and quite enjoyable. I'm going to continue to sample different parts of my current batch on the chance that it's simply poorly blended and will begin to shine at some point. I do recommend Briar Fox! Read Less

If you are a C&D fan, this makes perfect sense. You're probably in love with Burley and can't wait to get through the VA to that nutty, chocolatey goodness.
But I am a VA man. I like my VAs to be slightly sweet, with some natural depth to it, which... Read More
can be enhanced by the very careful application of Burley and/or Perique to bring out the heart of the VA, like adding salt and pepper on a beautiful piece of beef.
Cornell & Diehl certainly use high GRADE Virginias, but for me, the question remains open as to whether they use high QUALITY Virginias. I feel that the Burley here is a bit of a crutch to support a Virginia that is really too simple to use in what is supposed to be a "Virginia" blend.
Don't get me wrong; It isn't even close to being a "Bad" tobacco. It's even quite nice, if one dimensional. The issue I have with Cornell & Diehl isn't their obvious attention to the tobacco, but rather if they truly love & understand any tobacco that is not Burley. I for one feel that, like all of their Virginias, even their pure ones (with the exception of Bijou, which is phenomenal), Briar Fox is a great tobacco which fails to deliver the "Virginia" experience: depth, sweetness, and grassiness.

Very robust Cedarwood- Like, with very little but present sweetness.Reminds a bit a classic domenican cigar.

The flavors, once mild and unremarkable, deepen and intensify, revealing a complexity that is both surprising and delightful. Each puff becomes a journey through layers of flavor, with subtle notes of earth, wood, and a hint of sweetness intertwining to create a harmonious experience.

d ashy. In hindsight, I didn't prep the tobacco well, and I scorched it. If you scorch it, you might as well be smoking a cigarette.
Now, after having smoked about a half-dozen more bowls, I "get it".
This one is good. It's real good. It's not some uncharted voyage of flavor experience that will open new doors to you. It's not exotic. It's not legendary or novel.
It's just great.
Very nice subtle fruit from the VA, with some earthy hay notes. These, if you're not burning too hot, are great on the retrohale.
The nuttiness from the Burley is a nice flavor. Bit of a chocolatiness(maybe more of a cacao note). Not much more to say about that right now, I'm still exploring how it hits my palette.
To me, this blend is just begging to be a go-to. Dependable. Flavorful, but not TOO flavorful. Enough nicotine to be satisfying, but not so much as to require a four course meal before lighting up.
The more I smoke it, the more I want to smoke it...
It feels like the blend to just have on hand. If I'm camping, I want some. If I'm doing chores outside, it makes sense. If I'm wanting to hang out on the patio, it fits there, too. In short: it's a great addition to whatever you're doing, and it's not so stand-out that it demands your attention. But if you do give this blend your attention, you will find more and more to come back to.
Additionally, if you're the type of guy who sometimes likes to mix blends, this one goes well with a good black cavendish to add some strength to your aromatics. Read Less

I’ve been smoking pipes for about 12 years now and I’ve tried close to a 100 blends of tobacco over the years.

mpressed when I did. However by the time I finished the tin, I put it on my short list tobaccos to reorder. That list being 3 Nun’s, Haunted Bookshop, EMP, Dunhill (now Peterson) Flake.
I ordered 16oz of this and I just cut into the block this evening. It’s been about a year since I’ve been able to enjoy this tobacco and I love everything about. Cutting the block into a small chunk to place into my old 2oz tin. The smell of hay and figs is delightful. The crumble cake is a joy to break up and load into a pipe and the smoke, while not earth shattering is SO satisfying.
Fresh bread, toast, a bit of hay, and just a hint of sweetness is what I get from this blend. The nic hit is just right.
I’m not an all day smoker. One bowl a day is often all I’ll have and this one leaves me satisfied.
Milder blends like Patriot Flake, or Stokebye’s Bullseye Flake are tasty but so mild that it leaves me wanting to load up another bowl. Stronger blends like Haunted Bookshop or 5 o’clock shadow are so strong they leave me dizzy before I get through half a bowl.
This is my Goldilocks blend, just right.
It also burns well. Freshly opened I only needed the false light, tamp, relight to get through an entire bowl of this.
I’m too impatient with straight Virginias which get sour as I puff on them trying to extract more flavor. This tobacco tolerates my hastiness. It doesn’t require careful attention and doesn’t make me feel like I have a frog in my throat like some heavier Burley blends.
Truly a great Va/Bur in my book. Only reason I don’t give it 5 stars is because of the room note which is a bit harsh, and that it has no perique, which I love. Read Less

C&D's Briar Fox is a burley and virginia forward blend that has a very storied history, being the favorite (and sometimes, not-so-favorite) of many pipe smokers then and now. I may be a bit out of bounds to suggest this, but for me at least, Bri... Read More
ar Fox can act as a sort of test to see exactly what an individual smoker prefers in their smoke, largely because BF is so decidedly old-fashioned in its approach.
The tin note immediately lets you know the burley is the star of the show, with earthy and slightly nutty notes hitting the nose immediately. The crumble cake is firm but easily pliable, and as such is enjoyable to prepare any way the user sees fit.
C&D states that BF starts with a strong tobacco taste, with more complex notes being apparent mid-bowl and spicier notes on the back end. This largely holds true. There are no toppings here to muddle the tobacco flavor, and the virginias largely complement the burleys by adding a brightness to the mix, but never upstaging the burleys. More nutty flavors do emerge mid-bowl, but the promised spiciness at the end is touch-and-go, but it is there (mostly).
I suggested earlier that this blend can really reveal what an individual smoker prefers. What I mean by that is that for those who prefer complex blends with a multitude of flavors playing harmoniously with another will likely find BF to be boring. But for those who prefer simplicity in their blends, where individual components are not upstaged or interdependent on a multitude of leaves and methods, and instead each component has its time to shine and gracefully bows out at the right time, then this blend is likely to satisfy. And for those who prefer their tobacco old-fashioned, which is to say, they want their tobacco to taste like tobacco, then BF will likely be seeing an old friend again. For me, BF scratched an itch, and it stays in rotation because of that. Are there better or more complex burley-forward blends out there? Certainly. But few are as consistent, easy to enjoy, and readily available as this old fox. Read Less

s an awful lot like a "blondie."
The tin note to me is more Burley than Virginia. I detect more chocolatey, raisiny, nuttiness than sweetness, breadiness, and tang. I know BF is considered a VA/Bur, but I think of it more as a Bur/VA. If that makes sense. I find it to be more dominant in Burley than Virginia. That may not be the case, but I definitely taste more Burley than Virginia. At any rate, I definitely enjoyed it. This is a great tobacco that I will revisit on occasion. Probably pretty frequently, at that. Read Less

even spicy, buttery, dark, and satisfies a palate looking for heavier and less refined tobacco faire. In perspective, if Briar Fox were a cigar, it would be a Connecticut Shade Dominican, with a good balance between ligero and seco in the fill.

sly smooth, silky and full bodied smoke that I am not accustomed to with my favorite VA blends.
Paired with coffee, it is easily understood why the pipe smoking world is so fond of C&D's Briar Fox and you would be hard pressed to find a partaker of the bean or burleys who had anything negative to say about it.
The pack starts with a clean, crisp tobacco taste that would be well enough on its own but, as the bowl progresses, the flavors ripen with a rich, nutty and contemplative smoke that awakens the senses while, simultaneously, relaxing the mind and body. The end of the bowl is as rich and stout as it is complex. Quality burley continues to show through, boldly, while picking up a light spiciness that teases the taste buds and leaves you wanting for nothing except for another bowl. Read Less

No froufrou toppings, no added flavorings, and none of those strong tasting condiment tobaccos like Latakia, Dark Fired Kentucky, or Perique. Just plain tobacco, daggummit!"
