The burley is fairly earthy and toasty with some nuttiness, a little wood, and very light cocoa and molasses notes. The strength and taste levels are a shade closer to mild than they are to medium. The nic-hit is mild. Won’t bite or get harsh even if pushed. Burns cool and clean at a slightly faster than moderate pace with a very consistent, monochromatic flavor. Leaves virtually no dampness in the bowl, and requires few relights. Has a pleasant, short lived after taste. An easy going all day work and play smoke that won’t wear out its welcome.

The tobacco is a mostly rubbed out flake similar in appearance to Amphora. It appears to be composed of one dark brown leaf - the roasted burley of the description.

This was a pleasant smoke. It burned cool, and had a simple flavor. It was slightly sweet and had a hint of cocoa. It reminded me of an upscale Prince Albert or the NLA London Burley Blend. There was no bitterness to the burley even in last of the bowl.

This one is not especially exciting or complex, but it is a very good smoke. I am not sure about availability in the US, but should you run across a pouch, it is well worth trying.

Pure burley tobacco. If you miss Mac Baren's London Burley, this will help fill the void the discontinuation of that tobacco has left. I find it too one dimensional for my taste, but I can recognize a quality product when I smoke it. Sometimes.

Mild Euro-Burley. Doesn't have the backbone that American classics do. However, I really like this one. Think Amphora Original or Mac Baren Burley London Blend. Now take it even sweeter, and take away any chance of it smoking hot and flavorless. This is a really delicious tobacco for anyone who likes Burley IMO. I was really charmed by the simple pleasure it has to offer. A sweet, satisfying Burley with a little delicacy and no rough edges. Too bad 40g pouches from Europe are the only way to get this. It makes the per pound cost prohibitive. As such, I'll add a couple pouches to my order every time I order from a European tobacconist that sells it but if the option was there I would buy enough to fill a flat of mason jars. Very good.

Burley lovers owe it to themselves to investigate this buttery, top-quality, lightly stoved beauty.
