Has anyone here ever tried it? A full flake of something strong, with something you find delicious (be it aromatic or just a non-aro that you find extremely palatable) in a small flat layer on top. You roll the flake up with the non flake in it, stick the round plug in your pipe, and sprinkle a little of the non flake on top if your pipe has enough room at the top (this helps to make a solid char-layer). It was an idea I got while making sushi for the missus and I a few nights ago; honestly it was pretty pleasant. I certainly wouldn't do it every time, as flakes are fantastic on their own, but if you've got a cob or little MM hardwood, and you want to try something new, this might be pretty nice.

Stop playing with your tobacco or Kevin will revoke your smoker's card. :lol:
Actually, this is a variant of the tobacco parfait, which has never worked really well for me -- taste-wise.

But I am also Kevin. Kevin negates Kevin. And I'm getting a little cabin fever sitting around waiting to hear back on these job applications : puffy

I take a flake of Peter Stokkebye's LNF and LTF and twist them together and smoke it as my regular smoke. The LTF is a Virginia Cavendish and the LNF is just a VaPer, but the two compliment themselves and makes for a better smoke for me than either of the two by themself, IMO.

Damn, I gonna have to try that!

Me too! I like both a lot, but never thought of mixing them. Duh.

Very creative!

rigmedic1 · May 5, 2015

Ditto on the LTF and LNF. A little perique brings out the best in both!

As usual Cosmic, you enlighten us again. I think I have tried this before when someone folded a big plug and cut it up into 3-4 smaller plugs. The PS tobacco's seem to work in harmony.

I like to layer different blends in my taller pipes, but never tried it with flakes. Very intriguing.

tarak · May 5, 2015

Hmm. I have not tried this. I feel I'm still mastering the taste of each various blend I have individually...when I get a better handle on it, I'll have to try sushi rolling it!

I just tried taking two narrowish strips of 1792, and a strip of GH Dark Flake, and braided them together. Coiled the braid, and popped it into my pipe. Honestly, I know it seems childish, but I'm having fun, and the results are always a surprise. For example, this is burning slow and heavy smoked. It's very amusing, but nothing really beats the tried and true pack and puff method.
