Burley (No.702)

PS702 is Peter Stokkebye's unflavored Burley leaf. The leaf is processed by the Cavendish method, but no sweetening is applied on top; the taste therefore comes entirely from Burley's own character. The cut is ribbon and moisture is kept low.

The profile runs along a nutty, dry, plain line; flavor intensity is low while nicotine is medium, typical of Burley. Given its cool, slow burn, its main function is as a blending component: it lowers the burn temperature of the mixture it's added to and softens sharp tastes. It suits those preparing their own blends and those seeking an unflavored, straightforward Burley smoke.
