Tasting Notes: Cornell & Diehl Small Batch: Firebird Flake

In our first episode of Tasting Notes for 2025, Shane Ireland discusses the latest Small Batch blend from Cornell & Diehl, Firebird Flake. This singular blend combines heirloom Orientals and Dark-Fired Kentucky grades over a base of specially aged Red Virginias, resulting in a naturally sweet, subtly spicy, and balanced smoke that is truly unique in character and flavor profile. Firebird Flake is available as of January 14.
