I have a few tins of this, but haven't opened one up yet.

I have to say I am a HUGE fan of C&D blends. I think they are the unmitigated KING of Burley blends.

As Kyle so eloquently put it: "...If there’s one thing I’ve noticed is that Burley is a cured superstar or it’s just basic tobacco. At times it can get downright unruly. In the right hands, it can do beautiful things Virginia simply cannot.." I whole-heartedly agree.

I've never tasted a basic burley in any C&D blend but in fairness, I only buy blends from them where burley is the star player and have never been disappointed (knock on forehead).

I think maybe it's time to pop one of these tins and give it a smoke.

Thanks for the well written and descriptive review!

Well, it was an underwhelming review to say the least. Fortunately for me I truly hate burley forward blends and avoid them at all costs so to skip this blend is no loss to me. And nobody hits a home run all the time.
