I'd guess at least 50% in the MacBarens blend. For some reason I haven't yet tried Peterson University Flake.

 

[PaulTheScandinavian]

Yes Mso ,Probably some 60-or(max 70% in Mc Barens

I don't believe University Flake uses Dark Fired, just Burley.

In tobaccoreviews some also suggest that it might have DFK in it.

Mac Baren HH Old Dark Fired: A Tour with Per Georg Jensen - Smokingpipes.com

At the 30 to 50 second mark, they describe that they get most of their Dark Fired Kentucky from Africa

While that isn't what you asked, I found it to be interesting. The video is short and well done.
