A suicide is usualy found being made at mcdonalds by various 9 year olds mixing everything from the soda fountain.

I was thinking the other day as I let some crumblecake tobacco back into its tin from my mat, that instead of putting it to its RIGHTFUL resting place I liberate into a jar... and hey do it for all my left overs when I pack future pipes!

What do you guys think, little bits of navy flake, balkan blends, virginas, latakias, all the little bits we put back into their tins and pouches~ put into a jar to make a "suicide mix" Ive already got a quarter of a bowl maybe but when it is ready im going to make a surely interesting video!

But what do you guys think, is this a dumb idea, will it even light hahaha- I guess I will see! :rofl:

Pipes & Cigars does that and sells it as a blend called Best of the Rest for $15/lb.
Every day we weigh out pipe tobacco to be delivered to your door step. At the end of the day, we take all the left over tobacco mix it up and sell it as "Best of the Rest" This Blend is constantly changing. Sold by the pound.

Bite a cyanide capsul before you shoot yourself in the head while standing on a chair with a noose around your neck. That's a good suicide mix. :lol:

I've concocted a few of those, and they just seemed either harsh or blah. So instead, I usually take the dregs of

any particular tobacco or blend and add it to a plain Virginia or burley (whichever seems it will go best) and mix

it in a bowl, for a few pipe bowls of smoke. I thought a suicide mix was going to be Tambolaka and rope.

good suggestion gigger48. The flavoring in aros is often the problem with grab-bag mixes; especially

with them, I'd just add them to some straight Va or burley. It is good to have a tactic for handling those

last few bits of tobaccos as you use up a tin or jar or bag of them, since it seldom comes out even. I have

dusted a few bits into the compost, but no matter how little, it always seems wasteful.

I have a big bag of mixed leftovers and fails. I go to it when I can't decide what I want.

I love the occasional bowl of 'dog mix' a piece of twist latakia and all the dregs from various tins

Hahaha, I like mixed opinions, id be intirested to try that best of the rest stuff ive seen it flying around XD

Speaking of getting some blendin tobacco I was thinking of just getting some plain virginas and stuff to flesh out leftovers! suicide mix and some blending sound like some new pipe projects in the future!
