Sweetest Straight VA?

---! Part of the joy of a hobby is experimentation.---
This is the point. I know there are plenty of good VaPer's and I have smoked a lot of them! This is for fun.
John Patton Bulk: QUADRUPLE VIRGINIA ----this looks interesting. Anyone here smoked it?

I just added to my previous post re: Quadruple Virginia.
I have. It's a pleasant, slightly sweet Va blend.
It gets good reviews at TR.com
Also check out Patton's Virginia Squire. I liked that too!
D&R's PenHooker is a Va I've been meaning to try. D&R's Va's seem to have a nice sweetness. You might try some.

If you don't mind a little casing, try McClelland 2000. I find it sweet but the flavoring is not overwhelming,

Bulk - Mcclelland 5100

This :clap:

Also came to say 5100 if you don't mind red VA

For sweetness and great flavors, I suggest McClelland's Aurora. But, it doesn't come in bulk, but it has a nice balanced taste with more emphasis on the Virginia sweetness, IMO. But, if you need bulk Red Cake is your VA.

McCranie's red ribbon for sure. A gentle, fine, soft sweetness like no other.

So, Melvinsunsmokedcastello, let us know what you're going to try.

And I would be especially interested in how you're going to compress the mix to create a cake.

There has been a thread on that in the past, Woodsroad's "The Tobacco Press That You Already Own".

Most certainly will update as the decision is made. I have access to a shop press that will be used for the Kake Konstruction. At this point I'm leaning toward 5100.

Oh, will also mention Kendal Gold as in the final running too..I recieved some the other day and its very good. May do 1 of each..

You could use flakes, just put the perique between the flakes, like a sandwich.

If you don't mind a topping McC's Fragrant matured cake is pretty awesome and I could see it making a nice VaPer, it's a broken flake but when pressed it would make a great blend I think. http://www.tobaccoreviews.com/blend/726/mcclelland-bulk-no2000-fragrant-matured-cake
It's kind of like PS Luxury twist flake almost but higher quality and a bit different flavor.
