Gold Burley.. Some time ago, while on a driving trip, the idea came to me to try something other than the tobacco I brought with me. Realizing my only hope, would be Walgreens, I found one, and went baccy shopping. They had most of the usual stuff, plus these large poly bags of various blends. My eyes went straight to the bag marked “golden burley”. Great price, large bag and free shipping, why not. A short time later I was puffing nice clouds of wonderful mild burley smoke, with its distinctive aroma. Thinking how did I not try this stuff before? Light up is straight forward, flavor is pure mild burley, with no topping that I could detect, and there seems to be a pleasant amount of vitamin N, that covers that. If one must complain about something, I quest the fast burn rate should be noted, but in spite of this, the smoke remains without harshness and is completely bit free. A good candidate for a mild all day smoke. Since that time, this baccy has been used as a foundation for many homebrew blends, some better than others. Would I buy more? Yup, and I have. For what it is, simple unflavored straight burleys. 3 stars. My personal rating; 2.5/5
A real nice homebrew blend, using this baccy, is 3 parts GB too 1 part (Dan) Blue Note. For my taste a little BN goes a long way.

Like anything else by Blender's Gold I have to leave it in a baking pan for a day or so to dry it out. The aroma was very sweet, but it decreased as it got drier. When I lit up I noticed an almost buttery taste with a hint of caramel, and my wife said it reminded her of pecan pie.
For a "drugstore" tobacco this is really pretty decent as an everyday all day tobacco. I can honestly say I'll keep buying this in the future.

For me its one of the best tobacco in the blenders gold series. At first honey and slightly nutty flavors comes through. Tin notes on all blenders gold blends are very nice except for the vanilla( has a popcorn aroma). The tobacco is very moist infact too moist. If smoked straight out of the tin your going to run into a hundred different problems. I allowed mine to sit out for about two days or till it blossums open when a handfull is squeezed. It allows for a cool smooth smoke with no bite. But the manufactured tobacco still there but very faint if smoked very very slow allowing the pipe to nearly shot off. The room note was very close to a bakery smell.
Overall my last resort smoke with captain black along side.
