Why isn't home blending more popular?

[QUOTE="Brunello, post: 550137, member: 4458"] I've been searching the BoB archives for past threads on home blending. There seems to be the occasional flurry of activity on this topic - one of the best started by BlackHorse himself - then nothing for years. I've just been wondering why there isn't more sustained interest in the topic? Fully one third of my absolute favorite blends are those that I've created myself. That doesn't require applause or mean that I'm more talented than the likes of Dunhill, Peretti or Pease, it just means that when they put together their commercial blends they didn't bother to ask how I'd like my eggs done. How rude! How inconsiderate! Actually, many well-known blends started out as something that a tobacconist created for a customer who was looking for a particular flavor profile. But the more direct approach is to just do it yourself. Nobody knows your own palate better than you! [/QUOTE]
