Cornishman (English)

(13 customer reviews)

Price range: $0.25 through $86.99

Our original English blend, Cornishman features a portion of Latakia artfully balanced with supporting Virginias and Burleys. The result is a full-flavored smoke that remains soft on the palate, burning cool and steady at a medium-to-slow pace. Rich, bold, and refined, it is a blend that has stood the test of time.

 

This was the favorite tobacco of our founder, Jim Reeves, and one of the earliest recipes crafted at The Country Squire. Cornishman takes its name from Reeves’ love of an old English legend: medieval tax collectors sent to Cornwall (home of the “Cornishmen”) never returned—an enduring reminder that these people resisted tribute and valued their independence. Like its namesake, Cornishman is strong, steadfast, and unforgettable.

 

Bag Note: Smoky Latakia, Earthy Woods, Sweet Hay
Room Note: Campfire, Warm Cedar, Faint Cocoa
Tasting Notes: Rich Latakia Smoke, Toasted Burley Depth, Sweet Virginia Brightness, Lingering Earthy Finish

  1. Dave Allen (verified owner) –

    Cornishman is a decent English blend. If you like Latakia it really shines in this smoke. Cornishman boasts a full thick smoke with a room note that aims to please the olfactory senses of the distinguished smoke. Another taste sensation for the Country Squire.

  2. Cody Crowley (verified owner) –

    Delicious! My first introduction to pipe smoking was Cornishman, and I must say, it is my favorite and going to be a fixture in my tobacco supply. A very rich and smooth smoke with a nice nuttiness.

  3. Chris Jones (verified owner) –

    My first try with English blend and I’m hooked!!! Very smooth and tasty.

  4. drmacdona (verified owner) –

    Sweet and savory, creamy, flavorful, fragrant, well-behaved. After 45 years of sampling different blends, Esoterica’s “And So to Bed” had been my favorite. But my first encounter with Cornishman bumped ASTB into a close second place. It’s comforting to know that Cornishman has been blended for so many years. I already have a pound sitting in my cart for when the need arises. What a find!

  5. Christopher Blake (verified owner) –

    My only question is why does this tobacco not have more reviews? It is absolutely fantastic!

    Great flavor, rich and smooth. Smokes great. Just perfect in every way. This is absolutely an all day smoke for just about anyone. I will definitely be ordering more of this blend.

    Five stars!!!!!

  6. ejkohut (verified owner) –

    A rich and smooth blend, with great aroma in the bag. I fine cool smoke, and a full flavored english. I can’t wait to smoke more bowls sitting around a fire with friends. this is an amazing blend.

  7. jamb102093 (verified owner) –

    Been smoking it for awhile and I have to say this is the friendliest English blend I’ve ever smoked. Anyone that might be put off associating English blends as heavy needs to try it. No tongue bite whatsoever and although I don’t have the most educated palette it has a very slight touch of sweetness but only a whisper. This is a year around smoke no doubt about it. The only thing that I personally would have liked is a little bit of spiciness but that’s just a me thing.

  8. Tattooed Piper –

    Classic English blend that reminds me slightly of Squadron Leader but with a lighter mouth feel and less full bodied. The latakia isn’t as present in this blend as with other English blends and makes room for the Virginia tobaccos to come forward. I believe I taste Oriental in this blend as well and it really brings a nice light spice out about 1/3 of the way through the bowl. Give it a shot. It’s a great blend.

  9. Lani Rethaber (verified owner) –

    My favorite English blend. Definitely worth a try if you haven’t already tried it.

  10. tpharrelson (verified owner) –

    My “go to” favorite. Smooth, no bite, and easy smoking.

  11. ahmed khan (verified owner) –

    Absolutely love this blend! Great intro to smooth, luxurious English blend. I can liken it to a peaty, smoky bbq. Great blend and now I’m excited to try their other English/English Aromatics.

  12. hotcracing (verified owner) –

    A fast favorite and instant hit with those I’ve lent a bowl to sample. I won’t be without a large portion of this one on hand. I can’t imagine anyone who wouldn’t enjoy it. A lighter (by English standards) but very satisfying blend that can be an all-day, year-round smoke.

  13. David Gabbard (verified owner) –

    One of the best American English blends on the market.
    An all day smoke, with a good punch, but still a sweetness. Also a great room note. I send this to all my pipe smoking buddies .I need to try Angry Cornishman. Five Stars.⭐️ 🌟⭐️🌟⭐️
