This is a tobacco that I bought in 1995 or so that I recently opened. It seems to be hard to find these days. Mine came in a metal 14 oz can and I guess now it comes in a plastic jar with a screw-top lid. Now THAT'S quality, folks!
This stuff is a hoot, and actually fun to smoke if you're into nostalgia. Cube cut burley but the cut is kind of a mess. A mish-mash of cuts in there along with the cubed burley. The taste is reasonably clean with the traditional burley nuttiness but with a bit of an odd sour flavor which rears its head at the match and occasionally down the bowl. This stuff came dry even though the tin was well sealed, so it burned pretty quickly. Still, it could be puffed with a fair amount of vigor.
I did an internet search and this tobacco is a bit hard to find. I couldn't find anything on the actual company so I don't know much about them. But Bestoval (Best Of All - get it??? lol) is a decent smoke that transports me back to a time when a tobacco salesman was viewed as an honorable job to the public. I can somewhat recommend this but I'm not sure if many people would find this in their rotation. Worth a try, though - if you can find it. Plastic jar - screwtop lid... it's the Boone's Farm of tobaccos!

This is an old blend . Not realy a blend . Little nuggets of burley and thats it . Burley taste that can get a little bitter toward the end depending on how ya smoke . Smokes cool and I find if smoked at a relaxed pace , quite nice . The room note is true pure burley . The neat thing is you don't pack this stuff ... ya pretty much pour it in . Neat old product !
