DF tobacco is a puzzle to me. I've only smoked a handful of blends that contain it, but they all have wildly different flavor profiles. Old Dark Fired, for example, strikes me as having a deep, smokey molasses flavor. Solani 660 is more plummy/figgy; it smokes almost like a VaPer (to me). The dark fired in Doblone-d'Oro is somewhat reminiscent of latakia. Perhaps the only common element I detect is the spice it invariably brings to a blend. Otherwise, it strikes me as a mysterious leaf.
Perhaps my palate isn't capable of detecting whatever common flavors DF tobacco presumably has. Or, perhaps DF tobacco acclimates to other varietals and yields a flavor that is unique to each blend.
Do others experience this leaf the way I do?
