Kentucky is another term for fire cured dark burley. And a place.
Thanks I did not know that, learnt something new .I did know about the place I once stopped in Bowling Green for breakfast on the way to Nashville. Kentucky I love those rolling hills reminded me of home.

Here is the list in no particular order in my cellar. All of them went through serious testing before they were allowed in my cellar. I have never added a blend to my cellar without smoking it first and that usually means a full tin.


Solani Silver Flake TR
Orlik Dark Strong Kentucky TR
Peterson Perfect Plug
GL Pease NavigatorTR
Petersons Irish Flake
Peterson University Flake
Esoterica Stonehaven
Mac Baren HH Old Dark Fired
Mac Baren Modern Virginia Flake TR
Rattray Wallace Flake


The op was wondering about Solani ABF and 660 Silver Flake. I have no ABF and around 14 pounds of 660 Silver Flake. Those numbers reflect my thoughts on ABF. To me ABFs a weird funky flavor blend that I don't care for.

I'm not a big burley fan. VaBur's I like include HU Dockworker and Makhuwa, Reiner LGF, Solani Silver, Penzance Stonehaven and Germain Rich Dark Flake.
Mark, have you tried the 3 offerings from Peterson. I find them pretty tasty after some aging. When you were over last time did we smoke some of the 1998 Orlik Dark Strong Kentucky?
