Engine #611

Engine #611 is part of Cornell & Diehl's railroad-themed bulk blend series, named after the last of the Norfolk and Western Railway's Class J steam locomotives. It is composed of black cavendish, Virginia, and burley leaves, topped with a light coumarin-vanilla flavoring. It is a ribbon cut, offered in bulk.

The blend sits at a measured aromatic level that doesn't mask the leaf's own taste: the vanilla's sweetness is balanced by burley's nutty dryness and Virginia's sugary tone. With nicotine sitting in the light-to-medium range, it makes a good option for long, everyday smoking and for anyone transitioning from aromatics toward natural tobacco tastes.
