Cornell & Diehl Visions of Celephaïs

Visions of Celephaïs is a ribbon-cut aromatic blend in Cornell & Diehl's series inspired by H. P. Lovecraft's fictional world. Its base holds red and light-colored Virginia leaf, joined by dark fire-cured Kentucky, black Cavendish, and cigar leaf. Per the maker's description, what defines the blend are spice notes and a casing that leans on fermented wine — setting it apart from classic vanilla aromatics. On the maker's own scale, strength is medium and flavor intensity high. Despite being aromatic, the tobacco character isn't pushed to the background; the smoky weight of the fire-cured leaf sits alongside Virginia sweetness.
