I find Old Joe Krantz also hits with some chocolate tones. Good stuff.
Actually, OJK with a Lakeland hit might be awesome thinking about it...

Any living grandmothers in your family? You should be able to score a bottle of old lady perfume to dump over Ol Joe... though he'd prolly kill you for it if he was actually a person...
Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

He was actually a person. He was Bob Runowski's grandfather.
BTW, OJK is one of my favorites.

This is one I have yet to try.
I will be placing another tobacco order in a couple of weeks and Aged Burley Flake is on the list. I know folks who don't even like most burleys that love ABF.
Check out my Youtube channel, Razorback Piper Guy if you like that sort of thing.

ABF is the only straight burley I've found that I like – and I like it a lot. I like it straight, and also as a 50-50 blend with Dunhill Flake. Both are untopped, so no topping clash.
One effect though, that's been consistent through several tins: When I open a new tin of ABF, I'm a little disappointed in it relative to the prior Virginia or VaPer. But as I progress through the tin I find myself liking it more and more.

Well duh, you can't compare boxed wine to small batch bourbon, friend 😆
All kidding aside, ABF is really great stuff. It's on its own level when it comes down to quality leaf.

Eatons!! Glad to see they aren't sending out the chinese crap ones. Hey if you end up with like 1,000 of those pipes from this, don't start burning them for heat, they are my favorite cobs! Nothing better for strong, dark flakes and plugs.
