Hot pressed means that the Flake tobacco is heated during the pressing process. This causes steam to form and intensifies the taste of the tobaccos. Mac Baren HH Old Dark Fired Pipe Tobacco is a Burley and Virginia mix but the heated pressing adds a heaping dose of boldness that will leave the smoker thinking of their favorite Latakia blends.

Delicious
This blend is one of my All-Time Favorites! Much better than you would think. The flavor is very reminiscent of a campfire smell but doesn’t taste like you’re smoking a campfire. The can smells of BBQ or liquid smoke flavoring but it tastes very different than it smells. Very rich, very flavorful. Smoke this blend a little on the dry side or else it’ll make your pipe juicy. Nevertheless, if you’re a piper, you need some Old Dark Fired in your rotation.

Smooth until the end
When i bught this particular blend, I was a little hesitant thinking it might be too overpowering. Was I wrong. After rubbing out a bowl and waiting for a few mins. It smoked very easily leavimg a nice grey ash. It was smooth until the end leaving me wanting more. I am definitely going to buying this again. Thanks Mac Baren.

A bit much
I really enjoy this flavor for first few minutes. After about 3-4 minutes it is as though the flavor stacks on my tongue. I experience more and more 'spice' which, for me, it like sucking black pepper grounds. I give 3 stars now because of initial richness. Perhaps as my tastes enlarge, I'll increase the stars.
