Leccia Black yesterday.  Wasn't real impressed with it, didn't like the fire cured flavors.
I was wondering about those and the new MUWAT fire cured that are coming out. Was it overpowering?
If you don't mind my $.02....I smoked a Leccia Black a couple of weeks ago and really enjoyed it. I would def characterize the fire cured trend as not only love/hate but also something you need to be in the mood for. I doubt these would be more than a craving stick for most. The fire cured flavor is certainly prevalent the entire stick, almost as if you were smoking a tasty cigar by a campfire fueled with aromatic wood. It should be very interesting to see how the fire curing plays out in the MUWAT KFC, as that will employ a fir cured wrapped, whereas the Leccia the fire cured tobacco as part if the filler.
 


 
I had a very similar experience.  The pre-light draw gave me the feeling I was sucking on a wood chip used for smoking meats.  The campfire fueled with aromatic wood is a great way to describe the actual smoking flavor.
 
I can see where a person would have to be in the mood to smoke one.  I personally didn't like the flavor blend at all, I had a "bitter beer face" while I was smoking it.  I was only able to get through the first inch or so before I had to let it die.
 


 
Well, it looks like I'll just have to get my hands of a few and try them.  Thank you for the synopsis.
 


 
I will be trying the KFC when my local gets them.  Should be in about 2 weeks.  Will let you know what I think of that one also.
