Rich, solid, nutty burley flavor. None of the "ketchuppy" tang that many McC blends have.

"Soft" is a good descriptor. Soft, mellow smoke. Didn't experience tongue bite, but this blend burned the roof of my mouth in a way no other blend has.

Tastes good: reminiscent of PA, but richer and more refined. Kinda one-dimensional, but I find most burley blends fit that description.

Not bad, but I'd rather get PA or Classic Burley Kake.
