[QUOTE="EvanS, post: 20436, member: 331"] I just came across this thread and figured I'd throw in... The black ropes to me are too...well....black for my tastes. Just seemed a little oily. But and overnight DGT really brings out a deep spiciness in my experience. As for the Brown's, I agree with the above in that Brown Bogie is a real winner, while the Black Cherry, Maple and Whiskey twists are also very good. They don't REALLY taste like the flavoring they are named for but there is that little something that knocks the edge off. One thing I think it might be interesting for y'all to try. I see comments about slicing the ropes thin for better burn. I took a flier one day and decided to cut the coins about 1/4" thick and not so much rub it out as unfurl it. I let it dry...good and dry, really dry. Took those long strips of unrolled ribbon and shoved it in the pipe. WOW what a difference. This chunks of leaf burning and lighting each other made for a much more complex smoke...always changing. Just kinda interesting. But I can't emphasize enough...let it dry a lot for this method :bounce: [/QUOTE]
