FIRE Cured virgina Blends???

sirsmokesalot · Feb 2, 2015

Need a little help Guys. Been away from the pipe smoking hobby for awhile but just getting back into it again. : puffy

:

What I'm looking for is some help in finding some blends that are Fire Cured Virginia tobacco. I remember

really enjoyed them but forgot what they were. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks.

It wouldn't be the McClelland Royal Cajun line would it?

Fire cured, or stoved? I've rattled my brain to come up with a Virginia known for being fire-cured. But, as far as "stoved" Virginias go, I can give you a shopping list.

Terrapinflyer, I was thinking that Dark Flake unscented might be fire cured, but usually the remarkable parts of those blends aren't the Virginias.

I've had hard time figuring out what those stout G&H tobaccos are made of. I thought the "dark fired leaf" often mentioned in their descriptions is burley, KY or similar, but I guess it's possible to fire cure Virginia, as well. And I guess that those Virginias can be awfully strong if it's true that G&H's ropes are really all Virginia blends.
Here's some descriptions from GQ Tobaccos site:
Brown Twist: "A blend of Indian Dark Air Cured Virginia is blended with other strong Virginia to produce a punchy and powerful smoke." - composition: Virginia
Dark Plug: "Made from equal part of Malawi Dark Fired and Indian Dark Air Cured, this tobacco is cold pressed for over a week." - composition: Blend - Virginia & Burley
Rich Dark Honeydew "Made from the classic blend of Virginias (Flue and Dark Cured) and a dash of Burley" - composition: Blend - Virginia & Burley

Those African Virginias can pack a wallop of Vitamin N.

Fire cured, or stoved?

I was thinking Flue Cured, perhaps, and would recommend trying some from McClelland.
