[QUOTE="Doc Manhattan, post: 25304, member: 341"] Reiner Long Golden Flake is squarely in the "more VA than Burley" camp. (There's also a "touch" of Perique in that billing.) To my tastes, LGF uses good white burley to bring out the sweet, smooth Virginia characteristics. Might seem too much like a straight VA for the purposes of your experiment. GLP's Barbary Coast is the converse: mostly cube-cut burley, with some VA and Perique to bring out the classic nutty burley flavors. (There's a note of brandy in there, too, but it ain't an aro. THe flavor serves the blend, not vice-versa.) BC is what first sold me on burley blends, something which I'm powerfully glad of. [/QUOTE]
