[QUOTE="monbla256, post: 397736, member: 2244"] I have a similar problem concerning Burley tobacco. Blends/mixtures that are Burley based or have predominatly Burley as the main base tobacco in it will cause me to engage in a massive sneezing episode!! But thankfully, there are MANY straight Virginia blends/mixtures that have a nice sweet note in both the smoke and room note !! As far as CASING goes, ALL tobacco used in pipe smoking blends/mixtures ARE CASED as part of the processing to make the raw tobacco suitable to smoke ! They will usually go thru a casing procedure either before or after further processing such as flue curing or air curing or pressing etc. It's the TOPPINGS which are added AFTER the initial processing and blending that add the flavor and aroma of Aromatics. One way to find out if it's truely Burley that is bothering you is try a few bowls of the OTC classic, Granger which is a Straight Burley non flavored course cut blend/mixture ! This should decide the Burley issue you may have as to whether it's the TYPE of 'baccy or the elements in the Aromatc toppings/flavorings ! If you find it IS the 'baccy, then an "aromatic" type of straight virginia you might want to try would be McC's FM 2000, a straight flue cured, broken flake all Red Virginia blend/mixture which has a nice sweet taste and a much approved room note and is a real pleasure to smoke !! :twisted: :twisted: [/QUOTE]
