So last night, as I was finishing up the tasks of the week, I realized I was out of rum.
Not letting that stop me, I dug out some mixing ribbon cut Perique and put it on a shallow plate, then poured whiskey all over it. I put this in a cabinet that is both dark and warm, and forgot about it until morning.
Today, the whiskey is long gone but the Perique smells sweeter and with less of the fruity fermentation scent. I mixed in about 20% dark burley and bright Virginia, then lit it up.
A bright taste, with a dark almost smoky flavor from the Perique, sweetened and broadened by the other ingredients.
I could smoke this every day. Not sure how Aleister Crowley would feel about it, but if I smoke it in a pentagram with candles at the five points, maybe he'll appear and tell me.
