[QUOTE="Natch, post: 32888, member: 45"] I smoke mostly straite Va's (at least in the summer) and love them. All good advice above, though I too can't slow down so I do occasionally suffer the consequences. One observation, if I may, while H&H mature is the "standard" for many here (I like it, but don't consider it the benchmark to test others against) Mcbarrens Va#1 can be a flame-thrower, as the McB blends have a reputation for. I've got some I just un-jarred that reached 10 years and it's dark, much softer, great flavor, but still I need to smoke it as slow as I can to avoid a blistered mouth! While not "pure" Virginias, have you tried Orlick's Golden Slices, Hamburg Veermeister, or Reiner's Long Golden Flake? All are soft and easy to smoke and to me taste mostly of Virginia. I recommend all three. Natch [/QUOTE]
