Cornell & Diehl Palmetto Balkan 2026 8 oz tin sealed

A tribute to the Oriental-forward blends of yesteryear, Cornell & Diehl's Small Batch release, Palmetto Balkan, delivers a uniquely Carolina-inspired interpretation of the celebrated Balkan mixtures that have captivated so many pipe smokers over the years.

The palmetto is the state tree of South Carolina, and Palmetto Balkan showcases the Lowcountry blending house's prowess. A tribute to the Oriental-forward blends of yesteryear, Cornell & Diehl's Small Batch Palmetto Balkan is a blend featuring premium, matured Oriental leaf in the form of 2019 Basma, 2022 Prilep varietals, and top-tier 2013, 2019, and 2023 Carolina Red Virginias. The result is an elegantly balanced flavor profile rich in notes of wood smoke, berries, complementary spices, and a wine-like character, reminiscent of the cherished Syrian leaf that many fondly remember. The innovative treatment of the mixture's Latakia is particularly noteworthy, achieved through a unique, proprietary process — mellowing the modern Latakia's often dominating campfire note and creating a harmonious equilibrium of flavors.
