5 Star Dark Fired Blend
April 18, 2017
Product: Mac Baren HH Old Dark Fired Ready Rubbed Bulk
EDIT: 06/20/2019-2 years on and this is still one of my favorite blends. The DFK keeps drawing me back. Mixed this with some Five Brothers recently... wow, just wow.
What can be said that hasn't already been said about this amazing blend?! N... Read More
ot much. I will just add my own two cents by saying that this is probably one of the most satisfyingly pleasant blends I have smoked to date. Really rich, wonderful flavor that gets only better as you work your way through the bowl. The flavor that it ends with is the highlight for me. There is a cocoa like flavor that comes through about halfway down. There is a bit of a nic-kick here to, so if you're a lightweight, smoke it on a full stomach and take your time. Another thing about this blend, it ages REALLY well. Buy yourself enough to enjoy right away and enough to squirrel away in your cellar. If you like Dark Fired Kentucky, this is one of the best I have tried thus far and it has been holding steady in 1st place of my tobacco rotation. Read Less

Mac Baren's Finest

I won't copy my Old Dark Fired flake review here, but instead make a few comments on the ready rubbed that I've smoked. I give sp.com 95% of my business because I think they have the best service hands down and I love this website. Recently I found... Read More
a good deal on the ready rubbed and purchased five pounds. It came in a Mac Baren box with a heavy duty bulk bag contained inside that was tied off with a metal twist. I'm assuming any five pound order comes this way. What a glorious sight to behold. The aroma emanating from the bag is a pure dark fired delight with a nice cigar note that reminded me of dark Birdseye or other GH dark fired blends, and it also had the signature sour/vinegar note. The vinegar note is less pronounced when fresh. The ready rubbed tobacco is thick and there are pieces of rather large broken flake scattered throughout. To be honest this is the freshest ODF I have ever smoked, with most of my stash being a few years old. It really reminded me of a smoother version of dark Birdseye, and it was a very enjoyable smoke fresh and a little moist due to the high moisture content. Old dark fired becomes immensely delicious with a little age on it though, and I'll be looking forward to sampling it as the months go by. My previous experience with a more aged ready rubbed was nearly identical to the flake version, and I really couldn't make any notable discernments in flavor or aroma. I know some people say they think it's slightly milder, but I think that could be due to other variables like age and moisture content. Mac Baren hit a grand slam here. Lovers of dark fired rejoice and fill your jars with this beautiful tobacco! You won't be disappointed with the flake or ready rubbed, though on some websites the discount isn't really good enough to warrant purchasing anything but the flake. When you see that deep discount it is worth it, however. Read Less

I've been smoking a pipe for a while now. Tried a lot of different types and strengths of tobacco. Aromatics, Sam Gawith flakes, McClelland, Butera, Lane, Dan, etc. Smoke on average a bowl a day. Scenario: Ate a big meal. Smoked a bowl of this stuff.... Read More
30 minutes later after being dizzy and sweating profusely my head was in the toilet barfing like crazy. Way huge nic hit. Taste wise it was pretty one dimensional. Had a kind of strong cigar thing going. I like a little sweetness, none detected here. Smoke was strong and stung my eyes and nostrils. This is big boy tobacco for sure. No tongue bite though. So it's got that going for it. Glad I only ordered an ounce. Read Less

idnt know better, you would assume there was a slight addition of Latakia due to the smokiness that comes along. If you are sensitive to nicotine, be wary. I may be myself as even after dinner, the effect of the smoke is quite noticeable. It is a fairly dry smoke. Certainly not an all day smoke and unless you are tolerant of nicotine, its not repeatable. Read Less

My genes do not prevent me from smelling a powerful, cigarette-like room note for the following couple of days, however.

utty burley, smoky campfire with a subtle hint of spice. This is balanced by a slight sweetness, no doubt due to the deft mixture of the Virginias. For me the nicotine is a tad past medium. Someone here likened this to Peterson’s Irish Flake. To me this is a great comparison, and I too give PIF an edge on flavor, but only slightly. Won’t bite, but when pushed it can taste a bit ‘ashey’. Aging does wonders for this blend. Being burley-forward, I find I enjoy it more from a cob, dried for ~25-30 minutes. This is all-day smoke, IMO. Solid 5 stars, no question. Read Less

This is a strong, satisfying go to smoke, a heavenly mouthful of dense old school flavour, definitely not for new pipe smokers, you'll find your way here eventually, just not now, there are many milder tobaccos for you to try first, I hope this is always going to be available as it is something I truly treasure, I'm sure Per at MAC BARENS will see to that, thankyou for such a great smoke, kind regards, from Adelaide, South Australia.

om the dark fired - it smokes very cool with no tongue bite. A little lacking in the richness and complexity I am seeking, perhaps I was spoiled by the Gawith Best Brown flake, what a fabulous aroma when the tin is opened on the BBF but I was never able to get the moisture right on the BBF and the nic hit was overwhelming for me. Perhaps I will give the BBF another try out of a smaller bowl but so far my experience with flake (it was my first) is that it is a real challenge to optimize the moisture, not a problem with the dark fired ready rubbed but I will not reorder the dark fired, 3 plus stars for me.

order of my preference with the most preferred first. Of course these are just my opinions after smoking pipes for 30 years; yours may be entirely different.
1. Mac Baren Seven Seas Black --- No bite, good flavor while and after smoking, good room aroma.
2. Macbaren HH Old Dark Fire Ready Rubbed --- No bite, good flavor while and after smoking, good room aroma. Takes a little handling to prep for smoking.
3. Sutliff (Altadis) B37 Casanova --- No bite, good generic flavor while and after smoking, good steady burn, and good room aroma.
4. Lane Limited BC-A --- Good but not quite as flavorful as the Mac Barens or Sutliff Casanova nor as good a room aroma. There is no bite and a mild aftertaste. It is a little more difficult to keep lit.
5. Sutliff (Altadis) Classic Chocolate --- Nice aroma and a little more flavor than Sutliff coffee tobbaco. Burns fine and little bite. Lingering vague aftertaste.
6. Gawaith Hoggarth & Co. Kendal Dark --- The small ribbon burns well and does not bite, but it has little flavor, aftertaste or aroma.
7. Newminister No. 201 Straight Black --- Mild aroma. Little flavor or bite. Burns fine.
8. Sutliff (Altadis) 203 Coffee --- No taste or aroma of coffee. Ashy flavor. Not good to my taste buds or tongue; some bite. It burned fine.
9. Cornell & Diehl Dark Chocolate --- No taste or aroma of chocolate. Ashy flavor. Not good to my taste buds or tongue; some bite. It burned fine. Read Less
