Product: Mac Baren Stockton 100g
This is definitely a man’s tobacco. If you wear flannel and cut down trees with an axe all day this is right up your alley. If you’ve ever fought off a grizzly with a Bowie knife... ok you get the point. Like Latakia,

ing smoke. The main different is Latakia production uses more fragrant woods and herbs where as Kentucky uses hardwoods. Huge flavor with stout dark Kentucky notes yet supremely mild and sublime at the same time. Wow did these sell out quick. The smoke is smooth and spicy. Im going with the 4/5 for strength but this, of course, is subjective. The best spun cut tobacco I’ve ever tasted by far. Mac Baren does an excellent job with their packaging and tin inserts. It’s clear they take great pride in their blends. Tin note is very mild with pepper. The smoky pepper note of that fire cured Kentucky is there but is not overly powerful. Beautifully decorated 100 gram containers that will last me a while in my rotation. The coins have the absolute perfect amount of moisture right out of the tin to stuff and light. Very rare to find a tin with the exact amount of moisture for smoking straight out of the container. Light wrapper of Virginia on outside of cut and that wonderful dark Kentucky filling the middle. Dark Kentucky tends to be a fierce bulldog but the wrapping and cavendish progress make it smooth enough for all day smoking. Overall a fine tobacco worth buying. I bought their limited Burley earlier this year as well but am saving that one. Read Less

Spicy mixture. Very good blend of Dark Fired and Virginia. Easy to pack, light and slow burning. Almost perfect !

So, I'm glad I bought and tried this tobacco. Perfectly made as was the custom in the 50s of the last century. Virginia and Dark Fired Kentucky are a great pairing that gives a delicious taste and strength. The coins are cut thinly, which allows you ... Read More
to crumble a pipe into the bowl, but you can also fill the bowl with whole coins (whoever likes it). Certainly this tobacco gives a pleasant smoking experience.

Product: Mac Baren Stockton 100g
开罐气味和陈年的1792像,抽起来也有老草的感觉。内芯的熏制卡文迪什较之外面的弗吉尼亚干太多,揉起来手感怪怪的。瓶养了一段时间后各层的干湿比例平均多了,抽起来也柔顺多了。木香、果香、微辣、微甜。v草的质量非常棒,性价比还可以,但应该没必要多买,除非你本来就超喜欢老VK配方。

I finally got around to opening the tin, and immediately regretted not having bought another one or two to cellar. This is a beautiful tobacco in both taste and aroma. Does what it does without pretension or fuss. Next time they do a limited run of t... Read More

Mac Baren's Stockton Spun Cut what a plesant surprise for a Virginia/Perique flake smoker. Most often when I buy a limited editio tobacco I'm not happy, not this time. Stockton is totally different from the tobacco I usually smoke but if you're a V... Read More

If you like the taste of tobacco without any of the aromatic toppings typical in Danish/German offerings, Stockton should fill the bill. Won’t bite or get harsh, but it does sport a few small rough edges, and a light tongue tingle if puffed fast. An ... Read More

It always puzzles me when I see that a blend is reintroduced to the market in limited amounts especially when it’s a venerable one like Stockton. MacBaren was making this blend years ago and took it off the market only to bring it back in a limited e... Read More
dition which begs the question why stop producing it in the first place. My tin arrived this morning and it’s my first taste of this particular blend and my one disappointment is that I only purchased a single tin. I’m not going to bother with the particular tastes of the components because we all taste these things differently and each individual will have their own opinions and experiences with it but I will say that it’s a master class in tobacco blending. It’s got none of the infamous MacB bite and is a cool and smooth smoke right to the bottom of the bowl, I can’t detect any added flavours just pure tobacco goodness. I’m giving it five stars and if anyone at MacB is reading this I beg you to put it back into production so I can get a decent supply in my cellar. It’s an all day smoke if you managed to get enough of it but for me with my single tin it’ll have to be an occasional treat. Read Less

Tin date Feb 2023; tin note of mildly sweet, mildly tart and slight grassy. Tobacco is a coin cut of orangish tan, brown and dark brown centers. Moisture content is ok. Some pipe smokers will want to dry this a bit. Rubs out easily. Burns slow with a... Read More
few relights. The strength is medium and nic is mild to medium. No flavoring detected. Taste is medium and very consistent, with notes of sour spices, peaty sweet vegetation, herbal floral, tangy spicy, mildly bitter toasted bread, mildly savory, mild sugar, dry wood, very earthy, mild molasses, a tart lemon grassy and semi-sweet nutty background note, and a peppery retro. Dark-Fired Kentucky Cavendish is leading with Virginia supporting. Room note is pleasant to tolerable, and aftertaste is good. Read Less

Up to now i tried maybe a hundred of different blends, some of them i loved, and some - just meh.
But never happened to me that i fell in love and enjoyed profoundly the very first bowl of a new tobacco. This blend did it. Extraordinary.
A fitting special edition

This is such great stuff. What more could I say that hasn't been said already. It's bright, yet smoky, bready and grassy, nuanced and robust. Leaves one wanting for more, to be sure, but it's well worth saving for a special occasion anyway, because i... Read More

moking this. Maybe I'll just let it sit in the jar for a couple years and try again sometime down the road. It's sad because it has a great flavor. Read Less
