Two bowls.
First, straight MacBaren HHODF Ready Rubbed in a Chacom Churchwarden (freshly re-drilled stem).
There's a hint of barbecue behind the intense earthiness, and it turns harsh fairly quickly. I know it's good as a blender but Old Dark Fired doesn't seem enjoyable to me on its own.
I'm sure it's great for those who love deeply earthy flavors.
Second, Full Virginia Flake mixed 50/50 with Sutliff Honey & Chocolate.
The Virginia Flake didn't seem to add anything to the profile, just cut back the aromatic flavor. I'm still trying to figure out what Bright Virginia Flake is good for.
