Overview

This HTS classification, 2403.19.60.60, specifically designates "Burley" tobacco. Burley is a type of air-cured tobacco, recognized for its lighter body and less pronounced aroma compared to flue-cured varieties. It is primarily used in the production of cigarettes, pipe tobacco, and chewing tobacco, often blended with other tobacco types to achieve desired flavor profiles and burning characteristics.

This category is distinguished from its siblings by the specific curing method and resulting characteristics of the tobacco leaf. "Flue-cured" tobacco (2403.19.60.50), for instance, is cured using artificial heat and possesses a higher sugar content, contributing to a sweeter taste. "Maryland" tobacco (2403.19.60.80) is another air-cured variety but typically has a lighter color and milder flavor profile than Burley. The residual "Other" category (2403.19.60.90) serves as a catch-all for smoking tobacco not meeting the specific criteria of Burley, Flue-cured, or Maryland.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories under 2403.19.60.60. Classification within this specific code is contingent on the tobacco being identifiable as Burley and meeting the criteria of additional U.S. note 5 to chapter 24, which outlines specific entry requirements and provisions for certain types of tobacco.
