Product: Solani Aged Burley Flake - 656 50g
This might be he highest quality blend I have ever tried. Mechanically it does wonderfully, smokes very cool. Flavors are all very earthy, musty. Low notes. Dark chocolate, coffee. Very good blend highly recommend.

Flavor and aroma is liken to drinking a strong cup of coffee over a freshly hewn cedar plank. I would most definitely recommend to anyone who may be a fan of smooth, bold flavor.

Product: Solani Aged Burley Flake - 656 50g
I'm writing this not to heap more praise on a legendary blend. Anyone who knows Burley knows it's good. It's basically a recreation of the old Edgeworth Slices which is probably one of the best blends America ever produced, so of course they stopped ... Read More

Just a really great, quality blend from Solani. This is the blend I go to when I’m able to treat myself to a morning smoke with a good cup of espresso. Lights and burns easy, great flavor... will definitely be stocking up in the future.

Smoke is in a just any pipe, and it’s a nice, flavorful smoke. If you fold and stuff it in a Burley dedicated cob, it is one of the best smokes ever!

Product: Solani Aged Burley Flake - 656 50g
The burley flakes are dark in color, with notes of molasses and plum. They rub out easily and require some drying after opening. This is a very approachable tobacco that I enjoy, especially for not gravitating to burley's as frequently. Solani is a t... Read More

This tasty blend has made it to the top of my rotation. This has become my go-to blend. Enjoyable anytime of day it's the bomb. In my opinion the "Aged" part of the name best explains it. Kudos Rudiger. Good job.

Proof that Burley is not a one note tobacco. Bold, but not overpowering. Not ashy on the finish like a lot of burleys, it maintains flavor throughout. Excellent with coffee, tea, beer, wine, cider, or a simple cocktail. Works especially well with app... Read More

This is by far the best burley flake I've had a chance to try. It's one of the few blends I've stockpiled in my cellar. The nuttiness of the burley is awesome. It burns beautifully. Works well fold-and-stuffed, cube cut, or rubbed out. Simply great.

Best of the best. I don’t know how this could be better. I detect no Dark fired Kentucky in this blend. There is a difference between dark fired Kentucky and dark burley.

I initially didn’t care for it, but it has quickly grown on me. I like it better than HH Burley Flake now, which was my previous favorite burley. It has a bitter chocolate note that is very enjoyable. Too bad it is hard to get!
