Mixing that Extra Tobacco

[jkrug]

Some of the blending experiments Mentioned sound like fun....some not so much. :rofl:
I don't have a leftover jar at home. I tend to smoke the last little bit by itself or toss it on the top of a tin of a similar blend. ::

I've found that SG's Best Brown Flake to be the ultimate mixing tobacco. I use it in a mixed ration 50-50 with Penzance and 50-50 with Dunhills Early Morning Pipe. These two "blends" are my every day smokes.
BBF adds a nice VA flavor without drastically changing the other tobacco that your enhancing.

I'm hooked on a 50/50 mix of Lane Limited 1Q & BCA.

Never again. I will leave the mixing to the fellas who know what they are doing.

tennsmoker...good stuff. Sorry for your failed experiment, but it was funny to read nonetheless.

I don't really mix but I have been thinking about it. Closest thing I have is a mix of various flakes following the junk drawer dea. When I have a little something left in the pouch not enough for a bowl it goes in the jar. So far there is Escudo, Cut Virginia plug, Vintage capstan, brigadier campaign. Solani gold, and prob a few others. Haven't smoked it yet but it smells good.

Tobacco grog. I'll have to try this sometime.

I call it Flake Shake.
AFter folding and stuffing, I try to make up bullets of the pieces that fall off. When they are to small, into the Flake Shake jar. It's ever changing and purty darn good. A mix of DH Flake, SG FVF, NM 400, Escuro, NM 403, RM Scottish Cake, Lancer Slices, SG Balken Flake, MaB Latakia Flake. If it needs a kick, I have some blending Perique..
Ribbons and such are smoked until there is not much more then dust left, that goes into the next tin.

For the last two or three years I've been saving my leftovers and putting it into a mason jar.

It consists of every matter of tobacco I have tried and there have been quite a few.
Eventually and some while in the future I'll have the nerve to take it into a pipe and give it a try

Greyfoxactual, a lot of folks on the forum(s) swore by Wal/Hall, a mix of Carter Hall and Walnut. Well, Walnut went out of production but P&C has Russ' replacement blends "Chestnut" and "Chatham Manor". So, for your everyday home mix you might go with ChestMan?
