I do this as well, maybe go a bit heavier on the BCA sometimes. Better than store bought Captain Black.As far as aros go, I believe 1Q is the top of the list, but there are some other good ones out there. Sutliff Molto Dolce is very good, as well as CAO Eileen's Dream. One of my favorite aros is one I make myself, I call it Fat Albert. It's easy to do, just mix equal parts black cavendish and Prince Albert. For the black cavendish I'll use either Lane BCA or Smokers Pride Black Cavendish (also a Lane product). Hope this helps!
It was disappointing to me, I thought it would have more flavor. Maybe need to try it again now that I am a little more experienced.No offense to anyone, but I've never been a huge fan of 1Q.
