[QUOTE="DrumsAndBeer, post: 266276, member: 2403"] While I think there are probably some cavendishes out there that are worth smoking by their lonesome. On their own, the ones I have tried have never really done much for me either. I have a sack of quality Stokkebye Black Cav for my own blending, and yeah it's not by any means mind blowing tobacco. However, it's better than smoking straight Latakia, which for obvious reasons is a condiment tobacco. As Monbla mentioned, 965 is a good example of where cavendish is used to create more body and soften out the Latakia resulting in a nice medium mixture. Beck's Ol' Limey Bastard which I prefer over 965 also comes to mind. There's also an unflavored black cavendish in Haddo's Delight. That mixture will put hair on your chest. However that's probably due to all the perique in it and if it weren't for the cavendish in this one, it would probably be a very rough smoke to endure. Filler tobacco? Perhaps. But definitely not without purpose, and I wouldn't avoid a mixture just because it's listed as an ingredient. [/QUOTE]
