[QUOTE="Kapnismologist, post: 34679, member: 487"] Having small amounts left from various tins, tonight - for the first time - I did something which I had never done before in terms of blending tobaccos: tried what I guess might be called a 'bowl blend'. It transpired like this: I took out a big cob, filled the bottom third of the bowl with Rattary's Brown Clunee, the second third of the bowl with some Esoterica Tilbury, and the top third with some very dry CAO-Dan Hamborger Veermaster. The result? A virginia parfait which was a very, very enjoyable smoke. As I smoked through the bowl, the transitions between the three were very clear - especially when I hit the Tilbury in the second third. I enjoyed it very much. I will certainly be trying this again with the 'crumbs' of some English blends I currently have open when they are about gone - perhaps I will even sneak a VA in the middle. Who knows? Reminds me of mixing up different flavors of sodas in the same glass, without stirring, when I was a kid. Much fun indeed! I think I may have found yet another use for my trusty cobs. Has anyone ever done this before? [/QUOTE]
