This is a blend I've been smoking for years. It's now a standby for me and I recommend it for the burley crowd.
To the eye it's a uniform dark brown, with a smattering of lighter browns, in what is a real cube cut burley. If theres much else in there, I don't see it. In the jar it smells a bit like licorice. Being a cube cut, it load easily and with only a bit of tamping. I've smoked entire pipefuls after lighting with just one match. Burning characteristics are superb: a slow, easy puffing cadence yields a very cool, very dry smoke. When first lit, there is a moment where the topping seems quite strong, and I have to admit, at first I wasn't at all certain that I was going to care for this blend. I would describe this as being a "floral" aroma. But after only a minute, it settles down and throughout the rest of the pipe, the flavoring stays subdued and it's a good burley experience. I find it a nice change of pace that I always keep on hand. I've never been bit by this, and it's never gooped up a pipe. It builds cake very quickly.
I recommend this not because it will knock you socks off, but as one of those quiet, dependable smokes that has all of the good characteristics of a quality burley.
