Hay & Molasses...

[puff_not_snuff]

Yeah, #400 is a good one. Now that I’ve tried their #403 though, I’d say it has way more of that going on than the #400, at least to my taste.

How can anything be better than 400?

Because this one goes to 403. That’s 3 more than 400. ?

Nah, it’s got some DFK that really amps up those molasses notes. It still has those honey and graham cracker notes of the #400, but with a lot more depth.

Oh ok, so it was inspired by Spinal Tap.

I’m pretty sure, yeah. ?

As long as it doesn't spontaneously combust...

Sounds good but I'm not the biggest fan of DFK. I enjoy some blends with it occasionally but I find it distracting sometimes.

If that’s the case, I bet you would probably enjoy this one. It’s not as strong as it is in a lot of other blends, and has hardly any nic or smokiness, just a dark caramelized sugar/molasses taste.

Original Sugar barrel. If you can find some. I have almost 3/4 of a tub that I dip into on occasion. Plain sweetened burley.

I prefer its moisture level fresh and I jar it immediately. I have dried it and found no benefit, not even to it’s burn characteristic. It’s a ready-to-smoke OTC.

Mine, however, seems to be a minority opinion on this forum— as many here swear that drying Granger somehow transforms it. I don’t find that to be true for me and it’s my all time favorite blend.

Experiment for yourself and enjoy.

I'm with you, I smoke my Granger undried.

Something like MB dark twist sounds about right. Newminster 403 is a virginia, kentucky roll cake too.
