Is it me or has Dark Fired Burley been recently added to the recipe of Haunted Bookshop?
This is from PipesandCigars.com:

Haunted Bookshop is an unapologetically strong Burley-based blend that is slightly sweetened by the addition of red Virginia and spiced up and deepened by including the Cajun delicacy, Perique. This is a heady smoke with plenty of pepper.
This From Smokingpioes.com:

Components: Burley, Dark Fired Kentucky, Perique, Virginia
I may just have forgotten that Dark fired was in this blend. Anybody else notice this or am I just late to the party.
"I smoke Haunted Bookshop religiously and use it breath smoking in meditation listening to Tool's Lateralus while playing chess with my son."

I believe technically Dark Fired Kentucky is a Burley itself, right? So then P&C's description wouldn't be lacking in description, but just less specific than smokingpipes?

Very true Lightmybriar, I was going to mention that, but I don't recall this description being used. Like I said, I may have overlooked this.

Well damn man! You like some good things! I love me some Lateralus! Do ya think we'll ever see a new Tool album? I need to revisit HB though as I immediately gravitated towards OJK and didn't give HB a second thought. It's going down on the list.

I don't notice it, and I suspect Tobacco Reviews is the source for the notion that there's DFK in there. Maybe it includes Kentucky-grown burley (air cured, not dark fired), and that explains it.

Tool Album? I've heard their in the studio. Have you listened to The Holy Gift/Lateralus Golden Ratio/Fibonacci Sequence. Plus the Hidden track on 10,000 days. A lot of folks put these into the class of Pink Floyd/Wizard of Oz, and I can see why. But coming from Tool, I believe this was done on purpose. A great band. No doubt.
You're probably right Pitchfork.

There is a 2006 review mentioned Dark-Fired burley in there, although Jim says nothing about it.

Something about burley, wherever and however I find it, it makes things better.

How do ya mean? Do you synchronize the tracks with the hidden track? I'm lost.
I have heard that Lateralus is out of order and if you play it in order it flows as one, long song but I'm not sure I know what you're talking about.
