Jim's C&D Mixture Monster 3 Review.
Jim, I've read that some folks have added some 5 brothers in a roughly 60 / 40 (MM /5B) ratio to impart some extra body and kick. Since I have yet to try MM, how do you reckon this would fare and would you predict any large impacts on the flavor of the MM?- tbthomps

FDA Regulations: New Article Aug 2, 2016 by Tom Wolfe
Edgreen gets it. These regulations are a gift to big tobacco in the form of regulatory capture and repossession of markets that they were slow on the draw with (e cigarettes, etc). In return the government centralizes tax revenues and consolidates their revenue streams by preventing...- tbthomps

Hellhammer -- A deathmetal mixture
There very well may be; although I doubt we can coax the secret out of him. Possibly, the body of the smoke is produced by the brandishing of some burley although I did not pick up on much in the way of 'bready' or 'nutty' notes. My palate is still fairly new, though, so you are more than...- tbthomps

Hellhammer -- A deathmetal mixture
This review is the third review of the Deathmetal mixtures; Aiwass and Massacra being the other two. The blend is produced by our very own forum mainstay, Deathmetal. I wrote Deathmetal requesting some samples and, as usual, he was kind enough to oblige me with two bowl-fulls. I have recently...- tbthomps

What Are New FDA Regulations?
Disclaimer: I am not a lawyer; what follows is a brief synopsis based on my reading. My condensed understanding is as follows: first, expect numerous court cases over the next few years that could change the face of what the regulations propose today. However, if enacted and carried through...- tbthomps

C&D small batch
The Carolina Flake is, in my opinion, the best small batch to date. The Beast was pretty good but CF blows it away. I haven't had enough of it yet to put forward a review but I certainly get Red Velvet Cake with hints of sweet ketchup; the flavor is not subtle. I wish I had ordered more...- tbthomps

Massacra-Enjoy The Violence
This review is the second of two reviews in response to a post, entitled "The Metal Mixtures", put up two weeks ago by our very own Deathmetal; in his post he broached the discussion of two of his own, home-rolled blends: Aiwass, a tribute to C&D's recent 'The Beast' small batch, and Massacra...- tbthomps

The Metal Mixtures
I have posted a review of Aiwass in the 'Tobacco Review' subforum. Outstanding work! I still need to partake of the Massacra that was sent but haven't yet had the time. More to come!- tbthomps

New FDA Regs; What Isn't Affected?
It's interesting too when combined with the international trade deals that require adherence to US regulatory standards. The domestic regulations can then be exported; extending the regulatory capture overseas and the reach of select US businesses. It's not some unique American evil, either...- tbthomps

New FDA Regs; What Isn't Affected?
From the legislation related summaries I have read I am inclined to agree with brian64. This latest move is regulatory capture; pure and simple. If the motivation was what it claimed to be, i.e. public safety / think of the children etc, then the combination 2007 sunset date plus the...- tbthomps
