If you really want to farm this, go to Un'Goro Crater, where the volcano is with all the fire elementals. Great drop rate, along with Heart of Fire and Elemental Fire.
Drop rate for these in Un'Goro seem to have been raised. I got 12 in about 15 minutes.
Can also be fished up from the lava in Ragnaros' Lair.
