The burley is lightly nutty, earthy, barely sweet with a minor cocoa note. The Virginia cavendish is a little grassy with very little citrus or honey flavor. Has a couple rough edges. It burns very well, but needs some hydration first. Needs to be sipped, or it can get a little warm on the tongue, and get a little cigarettish. I never experienced any tongue bite though. Smoked at a slow to moderate pace, it's fairly smooth. Won't leave any moisture in the bowl, and hardly needs a relight. Has a mild nic-hit. The strength and taste levels are very mild. The after taste is rather plain. An all day innocuous smoke that makes lots of smoke, and can be a mixer in home made blends.

It's OK. But just barely. The pouch note reminds me of a household cleaner. Windex perhaps? It burns OK but can get a little hot. Bites a little if pushed too hard, which doesn't take much. I don't hate it, but I also don't care much for it. There's far better choices out there in this price range. After I finish what's left of the pouch (which is now stored in a jar in the cellar) I don't think I'll be buying any more. I give it 1.5 stars because it could certainly be worse.

No body, no taste, no room note for the smoker (not much for the non-smoker either). Nice price; if you got some enjoyment out of smoking hot air as it is less than $12 per pound bag. Sorry to say, but I can't even recommend this to a new smoker. Since it doesn't even meet you half way, I'm afraid it would turn a newbie off from pipe smoking as they mutter, "What's the point?"

Unlike the vanilla Cavendish which I really enjoy, I can't recommend this blend to anyone. I cannot think of any good attributes to this tobacco. It's bone dry, it burns very quickly. It's not even worth the low price tag that is attached to it. I find it tastes and smells like perfume. This is a shame because smokers pride has impressed me with some of they're other products.

I know, I know why not recommended it is cheap to get 3.49$ However even at 3.49 I rather get the whiskey flavor. The natural burnt hot and the room note was tolerable at best. It didn't burn well in any pipe I have which is about 12 pipes. I'll be making some soon though. Lets see ontop of the burning issues it doesn't like to stay lit, it leaves quite a bit of dottle. It just wasn't an enjoyment to me. My personal notes give this a 2.1 for uninteresting.

Ok, if anyone takes pride in smoking this one your taste buds are no longer active. I bought a large bad of this stuff thinking it would be ok compared to their Vanilla blend which I quite like but this tastes like bitter fermented wood chips. Don't know if the bad was old or what but I ended up using it as kindling for a camp fire, I'm not joking. It was the worst $10 i've ever spent. It's natural in taste but seems bitter as heck to me. Sorry to disappoint but this stuff tastes and smells as cheap as it is. It must be discarded old tobacco they kept in a barn with cow manure. It smells like urine out of the bag, sorry to be so negative about it but it really ruined my day off...yuck!

I grabbed a pouch of this about a month ago while on a business trip out of town. I had run out of the good stuff and found this in a 7-11 type store just off the highway. I was initally too embarrassed to admit I smoked a few bowls, but since WNDE has fessed up to smokin' this tobacco, I guess I will too.
Indeed this Burley tobacco is cube cut in very similar fashion to Sir Walter. It is milder in taste and does not get quite as bitter as you travel down the bowl.
This stuff will never enter my top-10 (or, top 100), but it was interesting. Okay, I feel better now. Confession is good for the soul.
