Just Mixed Lane Buttered Rum with BCA

[crazyhog]

Today I smoked LL BCA for the first time in 10 years. I was left feeling indifferent. It was kind of bland. The BR bit me a little for some reason. I decided to mix 2/3 LL Buttered Rum with 1/3 BCA. Hoping this improves on both. Anyone else try this? I won't be trying it until the weekend.

I think I got a cavity just looking at those photos! Wouldn't that be as sweet as straight sugar cane?

Ha, that's what i like! I use a filter, so that might reduce some of the sweetness. Sutliffs Molto Dolce is one of the few tobaccos that is too sweet even for me.

Love Buttered Rum and smoke it in my Meers a lot but I've never thought of it as a blender, new worlds open up

Sounds amazing!

I mix these 2 with 7 seas regular, as my super sweet aro. Usually makes a nice sticky bowl coating to break in a new pipe .

Sounds good to me. Your pipe, your rules, but some dry straight burley might help it burn better. I’ve always found Stokkebye 702 to bulk out aromatics without getting in the way of the flavor

Well, I had my first smoke today with this blend. I wasn't crazy about it. I slightly prefered the mix over the BCA alone, but the Buttered Rum tasted better alone. This mix is no where as good as LL RLP-6 , HG-2000 or Sutliff Vanilla Custard.

4 parts BCA and 1 part Buttered Rum. BCA is generally a base tobacco from my experience.
