I know this is going to sound like heresy, or maybe insanity, but part of the fun of our hobby is experimenting with different tobacco blends.
So I have a large supply of Frog Morton Cellar, which I'm absolutely crazy about, and I recently acquired some MacBaren Honey & Chocolate, which, to my surprise, wasn't at all wet or goopy or overly sweet; just a nice, mellow smoke.
So, I thought, what if......
I filled a bowl of my old but sweet-smoking Jobey with alternating pinches of FMC, a little of the Chocolate, and the result was a REALLY mellow, rich, satisfying smoke, great aroma, with a surprising nicotine hit. It seemed to really bring out the FMC bourbon flavour. This is great, and I'll probably do it again (as long as I have plenty of FMC on hand.)
