My opinion is that those old school blends have their own flavors but more importantly they burn really well and behave more than most blends. If you are out walking or talking and hanging out this is something that really comes in handy. They burn evenly and don’t need many relights. I often mix CH or SWRA with blends just to make them burn better and mellow out more. Also I love the taste

I don't consider the burley in the brands that are sold in tubs, pouches, or in bulk as being different from burleys used by blenders to do premium blends.
I think the machine harvested Green River Burley they cook and flavor for bulk aromatic’s including the codger blends are very different from the White Burley’s that go into the premium blends.
