There are a few blends that have an "other" or "unknown" types on tobacco reviews. I wonder what are your takes on those?

Not all blends fit neatly into one category or another. I also believe TR allows individuals to create blend threads and this could lead to inaccuracy and confusion.

Tabac Manil - Bouchons de Semois

Is quite a unique burley, but still a burley.

In this case it is shaped as cigars which you stick into your pipe and smoke that way.
Robert Mc Connell - Folded Flake

A Va/Bur/Per, blends of similar composition are usually stuck under va/per category, although it's a different beast.
Robert Mc Connell - Scottish Blend

A scottish blend as the name suggest, it's basically an English with some nuances.
GH - Kendal Kentucky

A straight dark fired Burley.

Why's e'rybody gotta be pigeonholing? Sometimes, it's just tobacco.
