If you like straight Burley

You’re going to appreciate C&D’s RC Burley. Unlike their Dark Burley and White Burley, this burley seems to have been cased enough (no toppings, add your own if you want) for straight smoking or for mixing without need for pH adjustments. Smooth, nutty, unflavored burley at its finest. No need to buy Pegasus or Haunted Bookshop any more. Simply add the VA’s of your choice, the cavendish or Perique, respectively, of your choice, and voila! Now you’re cooking with Kool-Aid! And that means gourmet cooking. Enjoy!...Read More
Versatile Blender

Product: Cornell & Diehl Burley Ribbon Cut Bulk
Bought as a blending component of course to add some complexity to some home blends, it's versatility provided a boost to some aromatics as well that were too moist and dull in flavor and potency also. As stated above, does pair well with both red and bright Virginia. DFK in small doses could be an ally too. Not for certain, but I'd guess this has some Dark Burley in this burley combo....Read More

Good old Burley. Nutty, toasty and woodsy. Not as tasty in my opinion as C&D's bulk Cube Cut or Dark Burley. Its mild in flavor compared to those two. However it is far less of a face bunch than Cube Cut. That $#%& is strong!
Wow!! Strong stuff

Tried it by itself and it put me back in my rocker. Tons of nic kick, flavor is heavy and good but I believe this will be fantastic in a blend
A Jacked Prince Albert

Imagine if Prince Albert benched 450, tore the sleeves off his suit coat and allowed his beard to grow more Viking-like... Prince Albert is more of a mild cavendish style burley with a pronounced topping of cocoa and bourbon, whereas C&D BRC is a stout and untopped burley that possesses hints of burnt cocoa and molasses. It isn’t as smooth as PA, and will tingle the nose on the retro. This is a quality burley which, unlike PA, doesn’t produce the occasional off gassing or ammonia drift. It’s lighter than C&D Cube Cut Burley by a smidgen, and has more flavor as well. By itself, it’s in the middle of mild to moderate in strength, flavor and nicotine. I like to mix C&D BRC 50/50 with Prince Albert; it kicks up the Prince Albert with a quality leaf yielding a flavorful, medium strength burley. Combining the two offers cocoa, bourbon and molasses… very similar to a lighter - loose leaf version of Solani Aged Burley Flake, minus the coffee flavor. 3 stars as I find this suited to an an everyday smoke more so than the cube cut, which is stouter and more for blending. In order of ascending strength:
1. C&D White Burley
2. C&D Ribbon Cut Burley
3. C&D Cube Cut Burley
4. C&D Dark Burley

This is a nice smooth burley. No bite burns clean with no dampness in the bottom of your pipe. Pair it with a good va for a smooth Carter Hall.

Great burley. Mixed it with Bayou Morning and it really shined.

This is about as good as it gets. I like Burley and of those that I've tried, this is my go to.
Since this is used is many C&D blends I'm familiar with the flavor. This is a great tobacco to blend with Yorktown, which I just did...outstanding.
Smoked straight it is smooth and strong without a
heavy bite. Paired with Perique it is a bold flavorful smoke.
This is a quality Burley, versatile to blend and smooth enough to enjoy on its own. It is all the best qualities of a quality Burley. Fine smoke.

Good straight up Burley blend. No pretensions, no excuses, nothing fancy. I was concerned about the finer ribbon cut and the possibility it would burn too hot or too quickly but it doesn’t. I will suggest that sipping it is better than puffing and I might add that it has a familiar Burley tang...not bite. Seems at ease in a larger bowl of typical depth to diameter ratio. Could work as a blender too but I haven’t thought of ‘with what’ or ‘why’ just yet. Smoking it in a large Stanwell 1/2 bent billiard and a saddle bit billiard with a buffed out name...two old favorites. Best in the bent. One way or another, it’s a good Burley for those that like Burley’s. In my rotation, it’s a Parallel to OJK Blue....different but quite satisfying....Read More
