My Beef With Cornell & Diehl

[3rdguy]

I would buy the 8 tins if you throw in a Peterson.

Forget the tobacco and pipes, I want the sleigh!

That's a nice pipe holder but if you want a sleigh, you need one like this....

As the Wicked Witch says in "The Wizard of Oz," "All in good time my dearie." It's annoying, but sales and marketing often are.

The deeming regs don't seem to have slowed the release of new tobaccos from C&D and others.
It's mind boggling to see all these new blends from this side of the pond, we're lucky if we get 10 or so in a year.
America is definitely the place if you like a bit of choice, great prices as well.

Now, here is something interesting I just came across.
Dasher is a vanilla and raspberry flavored aromatic.
Berry Good (by C&D) is a raspberry and vanilla flavored aromatic.

Is Dasher just reimagined Berry Good? Or is it Berry Good put in a new tin?

Shhhhhhhh. Shhh! Every blend is unique and novel and completely new and you have never had anything like it. The industry doesn’t recycle the same stuff over and over with new tin art. How dare you!

Also, I’m still trying to get the last Peterson I bought broken in. Too much dye in the chamber? I don’t want another lottery ticket.

Big n' Burley my friend. Smoke it hardcore for two weeks in that pipe and your problem will be solved. Just to be certain, scrap off the cake you've already have accumulated first, then let the ghost-killing properties of this take no prisoners blend do it's work.

I personally think Laudisi screwed up purchasing Peterson Pipes...I know I'll get raked over the coals on this one, but Peterson pipes are butt-ugly and smoke like crap relative to other brands in the same price range (and cheaper even). This is one way to unload them.

America, Fuck Yeah!

I just noticed... no Rudolph?!? I’ll pass

 

[cohibajoe]

It's just marketing. They'll likely make the leftovers available at some point after the promotion like they did last year. In the meantime, there are tons of other blends to discover and try!

Correct...Marketing and Lot's of other blends to choose over.

The specially labelled "Virginia Oriental" that C&D sold only at the 2019 Chicago show turned out to be just Oriental Silk, so they've certainly done similar things in the past. Not that I'm complaining; it's still good

What gets me is that I've got my Peterson 2020 Christmas pipe....guess I'm a moron for buying early.

I’d email them about it if you want to order those blends. Can’t hurt, and they can see your order history if you have an account.
