Blockade Runner
A true Navy Cavendish crumble cake made
with hand stoved red Virginia and golden Virginia and soaked in a
premium rum for seven days, then lightly stoved again, pressed and cut.
The seven days are the time it took our seagoing forefathers to sail
back to New England from the Islands with the tobacco in their casks
soaked with rum. The ship on the label is the Advance, the South's
most successful blockade runner.

Serenity Series
By William Serad
In Concert With Cornell & Diehl, Inc.
A series of blends cut to be easy to pack and
easy to light, and formulated to enjoy all day. Each blend is American in
character: open friendly and generous. Each is light in condimental leaf or
flavorings with no diminution in flavor. Each has some portion of cubed burley
for a long, cool burn and an ample fullness. By design unchallenging, each is
meant to be a constant companion.
A complex blend wafting condimental leaf
through the cubed burley and a special chocolate black cavendish, this is
perfect for contemplating the rough road of life. Warm and comforting, with many
flavors and a supporting fullness.
For the bruised and buffeted Perique lover,
this blend offers succor. An unstinting Perique component is supported by
delicate sweetness from bright Virginia flake with a darker sweetness
contributed by stoved cavendish. A fundament of cubed burley sustains the blend
and your hopes.
A different sort of aromatic, not sweet but
nutty with a full bottom. Repose adds Turkish with a flash of golden Virginia to
a base of cubed burley. This is delicately topped by a master blender's hand
with fine rum for a cool, fragrant and winning smoke that won't fatigue or
become cloying through the day.
A rich, dark blend, sweet and smoky but not
aromatic, this has no flavorings. Two types of Latakia and mellow Perique in
optimal balance are enveloped with sweet black cavendish and cubed burley. The
perfect contemplative blend, use alone or with quiet friends. Achieve
tranquility.
An Americanized English, it has the
traditional Latakia and Turkish (though in lighter amounts) in a Virginia flake
base, but layered in are cubed burley and a discreet amount of toasted black
cavendish for a round and slightly sweet finish.
A smooth, middle weight Balkan crumble cake
with latakia, Turkish and red Virginia ribbon.
