Rope And ??????

newfie · Sep 9, 2015

I enjoy ropes, especially SG Brown #4. But not so much now as when I had a pack & a half habit and could take the heavy dose of vitamin N
What tobaccos / blends do you mix ropes with? All suggestions are open as I'll be placing an order. Bulk preferred.
Thanks.

yo newfie - with potent ropes, and being a nicwimp, I tend to parfait them with Virginias. I don't do burleys much, but if I did, I suppose those would be usable too. Using a cigar cutter, I nip off coins and put them in between pinches of the other blend.

Maybe PS Burley 702. I mix a little with the Black Irish X rope, milder than the brown. But not much.

Black XX blends 50/50 with Jack Knife Plug extremely well.

8O Not sure why, as I've never tried this... but my mouth started watering after reading this... going to have to pick up some Black XX as soon as I can and try this out.

Thanks for your suggestions folks.
This weekend I tried coins of Brown #4 layered with PS Cube Cut. Worked very well, flavours and strengths changed in interesting ways.
It was in a fairly large Altinok Meer, chamber size ~ 7/8" X 1-1/2".

Villiger "After Dinner" (or equivalent) works as well. Cuts the intensity, keeps it burning slightly hotter and so it is less likely to go out. Also adds a little sweetness to all that morbid pure tobacco intensity.
