My Mixture Barking Road

Also known as Barking Road, this blend is built by combining Virginia leaves with sun-matured tobaccos and dark, fire-cured Kentucky. It is ribbon cut. Fire-curing gives the blend a toasted, walnut-like foundation and a lightly smoky frame; the Virginia side carries the natural sugary taste.

Suited to smokers seeking an unflavored smoke who don't want Latakia but want a more earthy, full taste than plain Virginia. It is medium in nicotine; it is on record that it may be moist coming out of the tin and needs airing before packing. The Robert McConnell brand is produced today by the German Kohlhase & Kopp.
