Tobacco Tossup #2: MacBaren's Fidgety Flakes

[troyniss]

It's time for round #2 of the tobacco tossup. If your new to the thread, click HERE for more information.

Last weeks winner was GL Pease Telegraph Hill.

I'm adding some new rules, based off what I've been experiencing while smoking and also while examining my cellar.

1.) I am going to allow more than 3 tobaccos, to a maximum of 5 if the tobaccos all fit within the same parameters.
2.) In the event of a tie, I will use Random Picker - https://miniwebtool.com/random-picker/ to pick the winner.
3.) I've also decided Saturday and Sunday will be reserved for smoking whatever I want to prevent tongue fatigue. I've been experiencing some after smoking TH all week and I really can't taste much of it anymore. I need a palette cleanser.


This weeks theme is MacBaren Flakes. Enjoy

I predict everyone will vote ODF; however, they will be incorrect. The proper answer is virginia, virginia, and more pure virginia.

Old Dark Fired is amazing but Pure Virginia is sublime also. You cant go wrong with either.

Enjoying these!

Pure Virginia. I literally went through the tin in less than a week, first time I ever did that with a non-McClelland flake tobacco.

It'll definitely be one or the other.

what is the point of this?

 

[brooklynpiper]

I need to know if you've smoked ODF.

 

[alaskanpiper]

Tough choices. Really depends on the day. Had to vote pure VA though. As a stand alone offering I think it's the strongest.

Yes, I have tried all these blends before.

Still doesn’t really explain it to me... ??‍

Well I voted virginia even though I do think ODF is the best of the blends on the table.
ODF is too potent to be an all day and all week smoke for me.
The Pure Virginia is good, but not as good as Capstan or Amphora yellow.
Bold Kentucky was too damn dark for my tastes and I don't like latakia, so the other one's out.

The Pure Virginia is good, but not as good as Capstan

Agreeing with the Workman here.

 

[SpookedPiper]

I would say HH Burley, MB doesn't show me love like other blends, so from your choices VA Flake would be the way to go!

 

[troyniss]

It's a poll where you get to decide what tobacco I smoke for a week straight. A fun little way to engage the community.

I don't know how else to explain it easier than the layman's terms I have described already. Others seem to get it.

Pure Virginia is the winner. Looking forward to smoking this blend for the week. Next Friday will be Tobacco Tossup #3.
