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.

Mac Baren Old Dark Fired
A wonderfully strong flake. Very rich and smoky dark flakes, nice consistency, smells a lot like vinegar out of the tin, but don’t let that concern you. The profile is exceptional. A good strong smoke, but still mellow enough that it could be an all day if you wanted.

Superb Tobacco!
Hands down this has become one of my favorite tobaccos I have tried so far. I've smoked this exclusively in my cobs and the experience is a joy from start to finish. Full flavor and burns smooth and easy. I like to rub this one out well and let dry for 20-30 minutes. The full flavor is very "woodsy" and reminds me of good jerky. It's one tobacco I anticipate smoking when time allows. Try this tobacco it will not disappoint! I need to stock up on this one.

Wine?
This tobacco hits the same taste buds red wine hits. Kind of a sour note. It is very mellow and cool burning. This will be going in my main ration of bacci and be bought by the pound.

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.
