Completely flavorless and more humectant than tobacco, this is one putrid mess.

One of the best kept secrets when it comes to OTC blends. Now that summer is in full swing, I decided to splurge on a variety of the BG line: Royal Cherry, Rich Vanilla and Burley&Black. B&B being my favorite. Let the blend dry on a baking pan just outside your door during the warmer months. In the winter, it dries best indoors between 74-76 degrees. Once dry, crush down before loading your pipe. Give a false light. Wait a few minutes before tampering again and relighting. With the first draw there's a malty, orange rind note. This remains constant as the blend gets a tad sweeter down the bowl. At the midway point things get spicier, with a creamy, slightly floral finish. The room note is just heavenly. Four stars.

As a quick smoke I recomend this blend. However if you have an evening and want to have a relaxing and contemplative smoke this is NOT for you. The taste is weak and not much like a burley.Its a cheap tobacco, such is what one should expect from a tobacco for the price. I would like to mention one could do better or worse than this blend. When I purchased this blend for the first time it was in the new canned packaging. The canned form is moist and somewhat compacted in the can a quick shake fixes that though. I would recommend to find some prince Albert if you want a stronger flavor than this blend or some Walter raliegh for a stronger smoke.

The 'light bred' of tobaccos. If it's all you've got then you're glad to have it. The taste is not bad, but once you're not starving any more it gets dull real quick.
The fact that it is completely innuocuous however, does lend it to experimentation if you happen tohave some. And it's cheap enough for the experiments to fail and you won't be out much. I tried casing it using hard candy flavorings with some success. Also if you need to tone down some other tobacco blend it's very good for that. Lacking its own character also means it can dilute an English/Balkan or an aromatic equally well without disturbing the flarov of the other blend.
