[QUOTE="Zeno Marx, post: 500116, member: 1211"] I found the D&R blends to be both a little harsh and flavorless because the harshness overrides any flavor there. For instance, when I added a little moisture to Two Timer, more flavors came out, and the harshness was all but eliminated. Another example was Three Sails. While not harsh, it was little on flavor. With a little additional moisture, the flavors bloomed. Those are the two I had the best luck re-hydrating. I'm not crazy about the moist towel method. Don't get me wrong, I've used it in the past. I've also bought those kitchen towelettes of fiber (usually blue, green, or orange). Even placed them in ziplocks with the corners cut or left slightly opened, so no water directly touches the tobacco. It works, but I also find it easy to over-hydrate with them. I'm guessing I don't enjoy screwing with tobacco as much as some do. I do it because it is necessary, not because I enjoy the experimentation etc. Not part of the hobby I'm all that interested in giving thought. [/QUOTE]
