Cornell & Diehl Sun Bear Mountain Flower (2022)

Cornell & Diehl’s Small Batch: Sun Bear Mountain Flower is a bright, refreshing summertime flake that pairs top-tier Bright Virginias with two distinct varietals of matured Orientals. Subtle casings of silver tequila and elderflower join a drizzle of raw, unpasteurized honey, enhancing the blend’s natural sweetness and floral character without turning it into an Aromatic. This edition is further elevated by ethically sourced wildflower and blackberry honey from a family-owned Morganton, NC apiary, lending creamy roundness and vibrant fruity-high notes. Complex yet immediately enjoyable, Mountain Flower offers both top and bottom notes in harmony—and rewards cellaring just as beautifully as it smokes fresh.
