Seerprised me
December 16, 2020
Product: Cornell & Diehl Seersucker 2oz
Since this is part of the cellar line, I didn’t think it would be too spectacular until it had aged for quite a while. But upon trying it, to decide whether to stock up and put some cans away, I was blown away by how interesting and different it was,... Read More
and yet how much I liked it. There are a lot of flavors all running together, but I think it all works together quite well. The plug is wet, but that should help with the aging, and after cutting a flake and rubbing it out, it only took about ten minutes to be at a good smoking moisture level. I think it is a very unique blend with cigar, and is totally different than most other cigar leaf blends. It definitely became a favorite, and I can’t wait to see what it’s like with a few more years on it. Read Less

Pretty good smoke
August 23, 2020
Product: Cornell & Diehl Seersucker 2oz
I rate this a little above 3 stars because it’s better than average, even with no cellaring. I smoked a tin of it to decide whether to add it to my cellar. I will. I like the light casing, though I can’t identify the fragrance that was used. I’d gue... Read More
ss a very light touch of rum. I like the blending of cigar leaf with orientals. I like the inclusion of black cavendish for its enhancement of smoking qualities. The Virginia is only average, but with age it will become much better. So several tins will go into my basement next time I order. This is especially nice in a clay pipe, which is what I always use for my first test of a new tobacco. My clay pipes are kept thoroughly cleaned for this reason. The bit of burley enhances the casing, adds body and provides necessary strength. Read Less

Opened it up right away, it had a great smell, tasted pretty good too, remind me of Jackknife Plug, but milder.
Halfway through it, it got better, and after that, it got nice and strong, with a great finish.
A nice after lunch or dinner smoke.
Good blend

What a kitchen sink blend one of the better ones I've tried it is something different in a good way
Tobacco review

Product: Cornell & Diehl Seersucker 2oz
In general, a dark brooding blend. The Burley, Cigar and DF play a prominent role, and in that order. Occasionally a pure cigar note or pure Oriental. Dark chocolate and espresso notes. Really does a number on your breath. A fine smoke for blustery w... Read More

Like cigars, aromatic, complex...
November 13, 2019
Product: Cornell & Diehl Seersucker 2oz
Consistent throughout this blend is brown sugar and cigar-style flower aromas. A complex, medium full and tasty blend. I am confident that this blend is a cigar blend. It is a “cigar blend” that has a different direction from Billy Budd, and brings a... Read More
very interesting experience to smokers. Billy Budd is a “Maduro” in a cigar and Seersucker is likened to a Havanos-like “medium” cigar. Read Less
Mild and Odd

Product: Cornell & Diehl Seersucker 2oz
I assume I’ll write a new review of this Plug in a few years. But as it stands now, I’m not too impressed. It was wet, not pressed too good, very mild and rather flavorless, and had a very strange smell. I understand the intent is to age this for sev... Read More

Strange things

Product: Cornell & Diehl Seersucker 2oz
I dried it for over an hour. It has a strange flavor. Putting it back in the cellar for a year!
The waiting is the hardest part.

Here's another blend that was shared with me by Souldawg175. I don't think either of us have the patience to cellar something for 7-10 years as this is meant to peak (actually we do occasionally run across tobacco we forgot we had pushing the 15 year... Read More
s mark, lol). When tobacco arrives we are like kids in a candy store. So, we popped the top to jump right in figuring we would probably cellar the rest. Man, this is a odd mixture. It seems like a smoky Dark Fired blend, but then there's black Cavendish, and you've got Balkan worthy orientals, and oh yeah, let's put some cigar leaf in there with the customary VA/Burley... talk about an experiment! The smoking experience was just as all over the place with hints of greatness lingering on every puff. Actually, it was more like a school master scolding us for our impetuous impatience. It had many wonderful notes but not really playing a song just yet. One thing I did like was that it seemed to smoke cool. For all the strong elements it came across as medium strength and milder than I expected. This too should grow with age and mellow even more and I expect the sweetness to improve. The cigar leaf might discourage some, but it's not overpowering. In fact, I found it hard to pick the dominate tobacco out of the lineup which suggest blending competence and a knack for kitchen sink blending. We'll have to wait and see how this progresses, but every indication is that it will only get better. Hope this helps. Read Less

This blend does seem to have me puzzled before I new in a weeks time i finish the hole 2oz tin its worth a try to experience something different.
Definitely needs to cellar more

Product: Cornell & Diehl Seersucker 2oz
My first experience with this was favorable. The problem is keeping the stuff lit. It is too moist. I dry it out for about 20 minutes, but that takes some patience. Normally, I smoke a bowl of something else while I wait. SS is smooth and complex. ... Read More
I enjoy the dark fired kentucky, which seems more noticeable than the virginias. The cigar leaf as a creaminess to the blend that is pleasant, but not overstated. I think it needs to cellar longer, as these might continue to improve with age. Read Less
Unique and Smooth
April 15, 2018
Product: Cornell & Diehl Seersucker 2oz
What a surprise! Seriously this stuff is quite interesting. Unlike anything I've really tasted...maybe a touch like brown bogie without the nictotine hit...but more complex yet more subtle. It's really smooth. You wouldn't think it, but it is. This s... Read More
tuff puts out huge clouds of smoke yet stays cool, dry and bite free. It's rich yet kinda mild. It tastes like a cigar yet it also tastes like pipe tobacco. It's incredibly well balanced, like shockingly so. It's like RIGHT in the middle of the spectrum, not too much bass, not too much spice, not too much anything. Everything is there, but it's all kind of blended together to make one kind of harmonious flavor. Well done C&D I'm impressed. I will say my tin was a year old and was already shimmery with plume when I cut into it. I cut off a nice little slice then I cubed that. Gravity filled a large tall bowled churchwarden and it smoked like a dream. Seriously this stuff smoked perfectly. And this is suppose to be best in 7-10 years? I might have to buy some more and see... Read Less

It reminded me of key largo. It seems to be a little more sweet. I have not come to a conclusion yet. We are going to aging some more.

I placed a review in March 2017 and now am updating my review. I just ordered my second tin! Great to load up and just sip for a long time. Enjoyable.

Perhaps a more experienced pipe smoker could pull out more flavors with this one, but for me it is rather flat, yet it was still quite satisfying. I would say nicely smokey,... Read More
thick and creamy. A bit of pepper. The cigar is there but in the background. You can chooch it quite a bit without getting any bite, so that is fun. The description suggests a long aging. I will definitely hang to this one. Read Less
