BURLEY


This light air-cured tobacco for which certain growing techniques are similar to those for dark air-cured tobaccos, is particularly well established in France and today represents 48 % of national tobacco leaf production.

Burley is used in the composition of the most elaborate American-taste blends where the specific character of French strains is appreciated by industrialists.
