Feedback on a blend?

[Tom Stormcrowe]

Right now, I'm smoking my own blend, and I almost have it right, but I'm missing something.

1/2 Black Cavendish
5/12 Cyprian Latakia
1/12 Perique
Skosh of ground nutmeg
wetted with some tawny port and jarred for a month and then air dried and hand rubbed.

Help me get this right and I'll call it BoB's Blend.

How do we sign up for the initial taste testers list?

I suppose when I'm ready for a test tester or so, I'll pm them for a snail mail address and send them a little bit to sample.

I'm not planning on marketing the blend, really, I'm just playing with the tobaccos to make something nice and I'll freely share the final mix ratios, etc. That way, if y'all like it, you can even blend your own.

I third this motion, if it indeed does seem to be missing something. I'd say it sounds like a tasty experiment!

I'll have some red cake this weekend....I'll let y'all know. I'm thinking of a 2:1 ratio of Cavendish to Red Cake. I want to preserve the dark, sweet flavor.
