I already reviewed this on the McCranies Brand. It is the same tobacco as far as I know. A terrific Burley-Cavendish-Virginnia mixture. It has a light scent that adds more to the aroma than to the taste. A good rich tobacco flavor and in my opinion, fairly strong in the nicotine dept. I have tried over 100 blends all over the vast spectrum of tobaccos. This one is in the top 15 of my personal favorites. It would rate in the top 3 Burley blends I have smoked. I found the moisture content just right as delivered and it burns clean with no re-lights necessary. I would love this in a flake so it would last longer!
7/8/2005: Too scented for my tastes now.

This is not a usual smoke for me but I do smoke it on occasion when im in the mood for a quality aromatic. This smokes cool and consistant and is more complex than alot of aromatics that i've had. I would recomend this to new pipe smokers or to people who like a little more complexity in an aromatic blend.

04/17/2004: I ordered this with the McArris blend after reading a review. Love this stuff. An all-dayer for sure but no pretense to being an aromatic. Another full-flavored stinker for those not smoking it. A top ten for sure.
12/02/2006 Update: No longer in my rotation. Excellent beginner to intermediate trouble-free blend. Nice taste, burns well, o.k. aroma, no tongue-bite. A little too much scent for my personal tastes. Still smoke on occasion.

Blue Ridge, has a lot of Burley, a little toasted Cavendish, Virginia, and a whiff of Perique.It is quite pleasant as long as you puff slow, but puff to fast, it can make you a little light headed. Moisture level is perfect and burns to a dry ash. It is a good smoke and worth a try.

This is a straight forward no frills burley with a real tobacco taste. Lites and smokes evenly. Old Master is much better, but this is not bad at all.
