[QUOTE="TheLowlyApprentice, post: 463236, member: 3979"] Thanks, AJ It would appear that you prefer mixing to stacking, and it looks like you both mix blends together (i.e. Half and Half with Heine's blend) and you also mix blends with individual blending tobaccos (i.e. Sir Walter Raleigh or Half and Half with McC Perique). I'd be interested to know what blending tobaccos you use. When I check TR.com, for instance, I note that C&D's Latakia is judged to be "Very Mild" whereas McC's latakia is judged to be "Medium to Strong". I wonder how that can be? Also, in JimInks review of McC's blending perique he states tha McC is more spicy than Hearth & Home's perique which he considers to be more plumy. Again, I wonder how that can be? Does it just depend on where they source their tobaccos or do they do further processing when the source tobacco arrives in house? And how's a fella going to decide what blending tobaccos to use without spending a lot of dough trying them all? I'm guessing that McC's various virginias would be the favored choices, but what about latakia, perique, and the various burleys and Kentuckys. Any thoughts would be appreciated. TLA [/QUOTE]
