    Great review. Again, I like the reviews where you enjoy the blend. This blend has been around for 5-6 years and in my experience, it deepens with age. I know that you don't really cellar, but some age deepens the flavors a bit. It's my go to straight va blend

    Love your reviews..... This Mac Baren pure Virginia reminds me very much of a blend that the Country Squire sells called "Faulkner Flake." Just pure Virginia. You would like it.

    If I was good at describing blends, I would say the same things about HH Pure Virginia that Bradley did. Definitely one of my personal favorite straight Virginias!

    I actually tried this blend is not too long ago when I was in California. It was really good but, Peterson Flake really spoiled me. If I’m going to go with any pure Virginia flake it Has to be Peterson’s

    Love this series Bradley, keep up the good work, appreciate everything you do. Going to order all the Mac Barens HH to smoke now and to put in my cellar. To see if they age well. Take care.

    Been eyeing this blend for a long time and waffled between whether I should or shouldn't get it. Capstan is my go to for a VA flake, so if there's nothing about this that stands out, I guess I am fine without it.

    Off the T topic, how many tattoos do you have? Looks like you have one on each forearm? What do they state? Thanks!

    I have been craving HH line and I haven’t been keen with any of mac baren blends even the ones with no toppings including capstant. Maybe some age is better but dunhill flake or peterson does beat this without even any cellaring required. I am half way through i might change my mind but I don’t thing i am buying it again unfortunately

    I just chiefed some of Mac Barens vanilla cream, I felt like I was snuggled up in a freshly baked glazed cinnamon roll. the problem is I really enjoyed it, I try to only chief about once a month, sometimes twice, and I'm already looking forward to my next alone time with this sweety pie. I need to get my hands on some of these other Mac Baren varients. If anyone can recommend what my next MB should be I'd really appreciate it

    Bradley, I bought a tin of this several years ago from Smokingpipes, and really don't know why. Not a fan of Virginias at all. But my tin arrived on a cool, rainy fall Saturday morning. It had five years age on it, so I went at it. It suited the day perfectly, the aroma of the smoke blending with the damp
    fallen leaves. But, the longer the tin was open, the bread-like aspect came out and reminded me of what I don't like about Virginias. Top quality tobaccos, for sure, and beautifully behaved.

  • @johanniemann4041
    @johanniemann4041 3 года назад +1

    It’s my first straight VA, and I love it. I want to try Capstan Blue and the Peterson Flake, but I have a feeling that this is my new go-to blend.

    As a rule, I find the MacBaren blends too sweet for my palate. For example, I had to blend Mac Burley Flake with Orlik Golden Slice to make it palatable; I mixed Mac Pure Virginia with Dunhill Ye Olde Signe. Granted, I've only tasted a few of these, but MacBaren is not in my cellar for this reason. That said ...
    Bradley, this is a good review. Thank you for sharing.

    Yes, Bradley, I have to agree all this Mc Baren HH line is bite-free, contrary to many other Mc Baren offerings,nonetheless, when straight Virginia tobacco is concerned I personally prefer Capstan over to this

    Great review! I haven’t actually had this one myself, but I got a couple of tins in the mail as recent as today. Now I’m debating whether to open on immediately or try and control myself and let it age for a while...
    It’s not the newest in the HH line though, that honour belongs to HH Rustica that came out last year. Don’t know which one was released before that but it might have been HH Pure Virginia.
    As for origin of the tobaccoes Mac Baren website claims the HH Pure Va is “100% Virginia tobaccos from North America and Africa.”
