The rest of the components arrived today. After a full day of taking care of a sick 18-month-old and half day with her 4.5 year old brother, I'm far too tired to actually start mixing the tobacco.
P.S. Black latakia..............................................16 oz. 20%
Sutliff black latakia............................................16 oz 20%
Sutliff black unflavored cavendish..................... 10 oz. 12.5%
Sutliff toasted red Virginia cavendish..................10 oz. 12.5%
Sutliff 507-s stoved black Virginia...................... 10 oz. 12.5%
Sutliff TS-24 Turkish ribbon................................ 4 oz. 5%
Sutliff blending smyrna...................................... 4 oz. 5%
Sutliff blending Izmir...........................................4 oz. 5%
Sutliff TS-20 perique ..........................................6 oz. 7.5%
.........................................................................80 oz. (5 lbs.)
Next day (Wednesday morning) I just had an epiphany of "What was I thinking?" While this is very close to my other recent blends that I am enjoying, I did completely replace Sutliff matured red Virginia 515 RC-1 with Sutliff toasted red Virginia cavendish. What if switching the Virginias was a mistake? I'll have 5 pounds of a $200+ mistake.
