Hey Ben, I guess you planted Kentucky in my head. Pulling some out now.

Bayou morning in a cob. Glad to have it back in the daily rotation.

I like the flake, one of the few Va forward blends I can tolerate.

I love Kentucky blends! The two HH and the John Cotton are my faves, what others are there that at categorized as burleys? I can’t do heavy Va.

I have some of this I haven’t cracked yet. Would you say it is Va forward or burley forward?

Its has Virginia but its not overbearing, at-least not to me.
Probably worth a try for you.

War Horse Bar, has Virginia but probably doable, GLP Bankside but it also has a Virginia component but not heavy. You thought about some Cigar Blends like GLP Key Largo, Robusto or C&D Habana or Warped.
I love all of them.

A little Va is fine. That will be the next I open then, thanks.

I’ve heard the flake is good but for roughly half the price I’ve stuck with the bulk ribbon.
