As others have mentioned, this stuff might make your mouth and tongue feel raw. I was impressed with the consistency and humidity level of the tobacco and enjoyed the flavor somewhat. The Tobacco stays lit easily and doesn't burn more than a bit hot. Unfortunately, the chemical additive is just too hard on my mouth and I pay for that all through the day following the smoke. My other complaint is what I will call the can note: gingerbread cookie in a dirty tennis shoe.

Judging a tobacco by its name is dangerous, from the name “Golden Burley” I anticipated a relatively unadorned, plain and trusty burley blend along the lines of a Prince Albert. This is NOTHING like a plain burley, it is an aromatic and a pretty heavy one at that. If you have an aversion to PG avoid this blend, if they had placed a bag of this in King Tut's tomb when the archeologists opened things up this tobacco would still have been moist even after centuries. In its favor it is cheap and available and the taste, which I had trouble completely pinning down, lets call it vanilla-caramel is not unpleasant. It did not bite, I finished the bag but it took me a long time and I was thoroughly tired of it long before it was all gone. If this was the only tobacco in the world I would still be a pipe smoker, but I would not enjoy it as much.

I agree with a previous reviewer who said it tastes like the plastic bag it came in. There is a distinct "plasticine" taste to it, like drinking water from a new plastic cup. This went away after about half of the bowl, though, and the tobacco taste came through. I want to say I tasted a very subtle woody note, but this is literally my absolute first smoke, so I am probably just tasting the pipe. The aroma, or I guess room note is the proper term, is not bad. As far as the nicotine edge that has remained since I gave up cigarettes- it nicely removed that, which is a big plus for me. It's cheap and easy, so it'll probably do until my online orders arrive.

Being a burley lover I really wanted not only to like this but also to love it. It is unfortunate that this came so heavily cased with a moisturizer that it tastes like the plastic bag it came in. I'm not sure how to get rid of that so I've stuck it in jars and stored it away. Maybe a few years from now it might be possible to smoke it. I know that the tobacco companies don't want it drying out on the shelves before you can smoke it but this is way overboard.
It doesn't bite. The room note is ok. Wish I could taste the tobacco.
