A straight and honest burley. No bells and whistles or sickly-sweet casing. Just good American tobacco. Nice nutty flavor. A traditional aroma that can only come from a pipe. Burns kind of quickly which isn't too bad a thing as there isn't much time for your pipe and baccy to get all goopy. Burley lovers should keep this one on hand at all times.

What could I say to convince you that Kentucky Club is a great pipe tobacco? I can't really.All I can tell you is that for myself I'm a burley fanatic,and the taste of Kentucky Club is very interesting.Kentucky Club has a floral casing in the blend that gives a unique character to the burley which could be an all-day smoke for some or a nice change of pace for Prince Albert fans.

Picked up a tub of this the other day as it was one of the few Codger Burlies I had not smoked fairly extensively. As has been meticulously documented here, I am an unabashed fan of these classic American burley blends. Kentucky Club Mild is no exception but the key word here is MILD. This is perhaps the only fault I can find with this tobak. The taste is good and the smoking manners are great. Consistent with the genre, it is plain and serviceable, good for any occassion and something you could undoubtedly chain smoke day after day without a problem. The room note is inoffensive (maybe even pretty good). Burn was a bit quick but otherwise cool, dry and bite free. Vitamin N content was just OK and overall, as I said, this is pretty light stuff. For the burleyphile, this would make an ideal light, change of pace smoke (which is precisely what I was looking for.) Due to its mild nature, I hesitate to give it a four star rating but in its proper place it's very effective. Don't expect a lot of oooooh and aaaaaah out of this one; it is what it is, a light, mild, all day burley. It will never replace Old Joe Krantz or Prince Albert in my rotation but for a light change of pace tobacco, I'm sure it will stay on my occassional list for a long time to come.

This is one of Middleton's best blends, along with Carter Hall, and Walnut. A good simple burley. Great in a cob. A good value for the money. Sadly, unavailable to me unless I order online. If you love burley, try a pouch!
