I picked up a tin of Solani Aged Burley Flake which I have been enjoying very much. The predominant notes of cocoa and brazil nut are smooth and enjoyable but on certain days I find myself searching for that underlying molasses malty sweetness that I love in a Wessex Brigade Campaign Dark Flake or Capstan Original Navy Flake. Some reviews of ABF mention a dark sweet flavor which I simply do not pick up on. I am still loving this blend and think I will appreciate it more come Fall.
Is there a best of both worlds blend out there? A burley forward blend, with just a whisper of that dark sweetness? Preferably sans topping/casing.
Thanks in advance!
