The instructions said to mention how I feel about Mixture 79. So on the occasion when I buy myself Mix 79, I know that it's going to be a vanilla orgy. But the stuff comes wet, so wet that if I pack up straight from the pouch, it will burn me. I put my Mix 79 on a few paper towels and news paper for about 3 days and let a lot of the casing dry off. Then I smoke it alone or mixed with other aromatics like Carter Hall or a burly blend like Half and Half.
