I picked up a 12 Oz. bag of this stuff at a pharmacy. It was all of $9.99. It has a nutty scent, with hints of hay.Just plain old tobacco. It was quite dry, but not too. It packed easily, and stayed lit fairly well for me. It truly does have a nice, warm nutty taste, very like peanuts, with buttery undertones. I puffed away merrily, and true to the packaging, it smokes cool and dry, with no bite. I like burley, and for the price alone, this was worth a shot. A good simple, no frills tobacco.
CVS now sells this in 8oz bags under the Admiral's Choice name. It will set you back about five and half dollars.

I hesitated at buying a pillow-sized bag of cheapo drugstore tobacco, but burley is what I sought and that's what I got. Not much to add to the above, but I'm kissing off the boutique blends (except for Barbary Coast, of course). Simple is good. I can't taste any flavorings: this is jus' plain ol' geezer cob fodder. It makes me want to play checkers and tell lies about the good old days. It won't impress the image-conscious, but it did me.

A tasty, smooth drugstore burley that won't foul up a pipe or burn wet. Very reasonably priced and is also great for blending.

Since I have smoked a pipe for 25+ years, and consider my taste somewhat experienced, it is difficult for me to admit that I like a brand that is inexpensive and readily available. It is simple and true. Sweet burley from top to bottom. If you like burley, and don't mind being economical, I would highly recommend this one.
