Blending - White Burley is a solid, fundamental tobacco. It's slow-burning, so it can be used to tame a hot blend and the flavor is rather neutral, somewhat reminiscent of walnut or pecan with hints of cocoa. It's useful in blends that seem to be a little too strong flavor-wise, as it can soften the taste of the tobacco. It's also a good choice to smoke straight when you want something that's mellow and stays fairly cool.
When using about 4 ounces of the AAA blending white Burley along with 9 ounces of the AAA red blending Burley and 3 ounces of Maple Cavendish, it gives a smooth flavor with no bite, and a delightful aroma. A really good smoke.

Not a bad choice

Will order again. Was a little on the dry side but I hydrated it a little and all was good. Nice flavor and mixed well

Blending is the key word here.

Some people like to do stuff them selves (if they want it done right) and blending is on my list. I don't smoke so much anymore, and wanted to slow or cool down a couple things, also to reduce the flavor (overload) profile.
This Burley did all that, and doesn't tweak/ruin like the Virginia which seemed to actually increase strength rather than diluting. Goes good with 10% Dark Fired Kentucky and 20% Red Virginia, a nuttier approximation of Drum.
