Blender's Gold Golden Burley

Blenders Gold. Oh, yeah. This is some tasty leaf. Golden Burley is great by itself, but I prefer the Toasted Cavendish and Burley&Black line-up. Since switching from the bags to the can variety the PG level is considerably lower. Many of the name brand tins have quite a bit of the PG in them. Former's Private Flake and MacBaren's Roll Cake come to mind. That being said air this puppy out all day long at 75 degrees, spreading evenly on parchment or newspaper. The result is a dry, malty, seltzery and semi-sweet smoke. Drying a tad longer really brings out the subtle floral note. For richer flavor and depth dry a handful of the BG Toasted Cavendish and add to the mix. And don't worry about getting jipped on quality. BG is made by Sutliff and the leaf used is aged up to four years. No bite and just the ocassional tamper is needed. So ditch the high priced tins if you're on a budget and stock up on the BG blends. Best of all you can create some very rewarding bowlfulls by playing mad mixer.
