Relaxing after a wonderful salad, pork chops and asparagus dinner with peaches for dessert. Now smoking HU Tobacco Aus dem Krater Plug in a quarter bend 1970s GBD Prehistoric Rhodesian 9438 with a perspex saddle stem.
Some reviewers on TR.com state that this blend is the same, or a very close copy of the Orlik Dark Strong Kentucky. Do you know if that's the case?

Whoever wrote that is uninformed, and that comment isn't mentioned on the three reviews for this plug.

They are not the same at all. There's no licorice or molasses toppings or black cavendish in this plug, all of which ODSK has a fair amount of, though less bc than toppings. Also, it has perique, which ODSK doesn't.

That's why I asked the man who would know! puffy

EDIT: Aha, I was reading these reviews, which cover a different variety of the blend: HU Tobacco - Aus dem Krater Nr. 5 (Kratermischung) - Tobacco Reviews - https://www.tobaccoreviews.com/blend/10718/hu-tobacco-aus-dem-krater-nr-5
