Fire-Cured Kentucky Tobacco E-liquid
Drake’s Fire-Cured Kentucky Tobacco E-liquid has a yellowish-orange darkish tint. The smell is smokey and mildly ashen. This e-liquid is a distinctive fragrant Kentucky tobacco, with a slightly smokey taste tinged with a woody flavour. There is also an underlying nutty and earthy type flavour that makes this e-liquid superbly elegant. This e-liquid is a matchless compilation saturated with a unique woody scent toned down by a nutty warm sensation that lasts until the end of your draw.
The nuttiness takes a backseat to the strong woody, smoky scent, which becomes more noticeable as you continue your draw and exhale. The aroma is consistently fine; however, the earthiness may be less noticeable. It’s somewhat apparent on the exhale but loses any significance due to its nutty and woody elements.
Kentucky Fire Cured Tobacco
Fire-cured Kentucky tobacco is a type of tobacco that is grown in the United States, specifically in the state of Kentucky. It is known for its strong, smoky flavour and is often used in chewing tobacco and other products that require a strong, bold flavour.
The process of producing fire-cured Kentucky tobacco begins with the cultivation of tobacco plants. The plants are typically grown in cold climates and are allowed to mature until they are ready to be harvested. Once the tobacco leaves have been harvested, they are carefully selected and sorted according to quality.
Processing
After the tobacco leaves have been harvested, they are placed in a barn or other enclosed structure and are subjected to a process of fire-curing. This process involves the use of smoke from a fire to dry the tobacco leaves, which helps to bring out their natural flavours and aromas. The fire-curing process takes place over a period of several weeks and involves the use of carefully controlled temperatures and humidity levels to ensure that the tobacco leaves are properly cured.
Once the fire-curing process is complete, the tobacco leaves are allowed to age and further develop their flavour and aroma. This process can take several months or even years, depending on the desired characteristics of the final product. When the tobacco is ready, it is carefully sorted and prepared for use in various tobacco products.
Fire-cured Kentucky tobacco is known for its strong, smokey flavour, which is often described as being similar to the taste of a campfire. It is often used as the primary component in chewing tobacco and other products that require a strong, bold flavour. In addition to its use in chewing tobacco, fire-cured Kentucky tobacco is also used in the production of cigarettes and other products.
Cold Extraction Process
After leaf selection, our master blenders cold macerate the tobacco leaf blend for between 5-9 weeks, stirring them daily to ensure a full-bodied flavour.
We then use an 8-stage natural filtration process to remove all the tobacco leaves from the final liquid concentrate.

I’m in the process of replacing my favourite NETs with something more affordable and easy to purchase in the UK. I used to be a pipe smoker, so very focused on flavours. I have a number of good tanks and I tend to vape low watts 10-14, with a ~1.1 ohm coil 28 gauge, 2.5mm dia, single round Kanthal 28 gauge.
So since I am exploring Drake’s for the first time, I have bought a number of these shortfills and I am going to review all of them in due course.
However I’m not good at describing flavours, for me it’s just a matter of yes or no. This Kentucky gets a MASSIVE YES. Bold, punchy, lovely flavour, way more distinct flavours than an equivalent pipe tobacco. I will buy again for sure!
