Milan Tobacconists 401 Burley Mixture
(3.00)
A combination of crimp-cut light Burleys mellowed with Perique, bright Virginia, and just a dash of toasted Cavendish - all aged to a natural sweetness. Great for new smokers

The bright Virginia is citrusy sweet with a touch of grass, though it is a minor player. The toasted cavendish offers a honey note and is also a minor player. The perique is very mild and offers a plum note or two with a bare hint of spice. The burleys are molasses sweet with some nuttiness. There is a topping and I wonder if vanilla is in it, because I get a very light sense of its presence. Or perhaps there's a touch of black cavendish in the mix, because I'm not certain the dark pieces are all perique. An all day smoke that burns at a normal rate, fairly cool, but some harshness and tongue tingle may evidence itself if you're a fast puffer. That's a partial indicator that black cavendish may be present. Leaves very little moisture in the bowl, and has a very pleasant after taste.

A very good burley blend, although I like Milan's 101 Burley better.
I'll just steal what one of the other reviewers said: "A natural good burley mixture. No or very little casing added. This blend smokes cool, dry, and has a natural sweet flavor. It burns evenly and doesn't have to be relit often." Yes, I agree.
