Cornell & Diehl Evening Rise

Evening Rise is an English mixture built on a burley base with Latakia, Turkish Orientals, and Virginia added. The maker's description positions the blend as tobacco for evening hours, for conversations by mosquito-ridden waterside spots. It is a ribbon cut. The burley base gives the blend an earthy, nutty body with low sugar, while Latakia adds smoky weight and the Orientals bring a tangy spice; Virginia leaves a thin trace of sweetness in between. Nicotine is medium, flavor intensity is high, and the smoke spreads noticeably through the room.
