This is a blend I’ve been wanting to try for a long time. I read the description and it sounded intriguing, but it’s been really hard to get my hands on. I picked some up through cup of joes and I can get why it’s so hard to find. It’s extremely tasty but mellow very sweet bready flavor with a nutty maple note. The nic hit is decent in this one so I can get why so many people are after it. I will definitely be hunting for more of this one....Read More

Trying a 9 year old vacuum sealed version of this. Yes, be jealous because it's delicious. It's bolder than some burleys I've had and fun bodied. It's grassy and earthy. No tongue bite here and smooth.
awesome!

Tin note of molasses, fermented vegetation and spices. Tobacco is a flake of a marbled dark brown and brown with tan stem spots. Moisture content is great, rubs out with a little effort. Burns slow with a few relights. The strength is medium and nic is mild to medium. Flavoring is mild to medium, with notes of Licorice, that dissipates to practically nothing by the end of the first 1/3. Taste is medium and mostly consistent, with notes of mild licorice, wood, leather, musty vegetation, toasted sweet bread, mild cocoa, rich earthy, dry bitterness, mild molasses, tart/tanginess, mildly savory, a semi-sweet nutty background note, and a smooth retro. Burley is leading with Flavoring supporting. Room note is pleasant to tolerable, and aftertaste is great....Read More

Flavor finally came out when I packed a half pipe full. Beautiful smoke, great burley taste with a good nicotine kick. Leaves a nice aftertaste, buying again.

ABF meets BF#3. A rewarding medium/full bodied Burley blend. Consistent with prominent toasty notes of malt and coffee. Earthy nutty, walnut and cashew. Cocoa and carib. Wispy notes of cigar along with a fair amount of vitamin N.
Stellar

Hands down the best burley flake available. It’s clearly high quality. Think of this as a more refined ABF. It’s not as sweet/sour as ABF. It’s more malty and molassesy. It’s not insanely complex, but it does keep you interested. Burns slow and cool. Hard to go wrong with anything with a Wessex label on it....Read More

I'm going to be one of those few people who prefer this over Solani ABF, but I do prefer it. Opening the tin, you see a couple sets of dark brown strips that smell of burley and sweetness. I think that it is the molasses/treacle that has won me over and I think that any lover of Burley would be remiss without trying this one. I smoked this and ABF side by side and Wessex Burley Slice was definitely the winner. As I smoked it, I imagined warm, toasted pumpernickel or a dark, molasses-rich beer-bread. If Guinness is liquid bread, then this is combustible bread. Nutty, bready, a little sweet, and rich bass notes. This is just a great tobacco all-around, but I do have to qualify that with the fact that I love almost all Burley blends. As for the room note I don't think you'd be dragging people out just to comment about it, but I kind of like the way that it smells. Of course, I like most tobacco room notes other than those that are very strong. This also has the perfect amount of nicotine for me in a smoke. I don't smoke often, but when I do I like to know that I have smoked. I found that cube cut for WBS seemed to bring out more flavor and also help with the burn rate. Would I buy it again? Heck, yeah I would and I will. I just wish that there was a way to get it in bulk. I guess I'll just have to settle for the 50 gram tin for now. I smoke this at least once a week now and sometimes more, but this has been my weekly special time smoke. For times I know that I won't be bothered with anything and I don't have to pay attention to anything. This, in my opinion, is some seriously great stuff....Read More
