Hey from central North Carolina. I do "mixes," which to me means no oven, no pressure, and no calculated aging, just putting one thing with another, or mixing several tobaccos. Virginia and burley mixes are the easiest recipes and seem to produce the best results, sometimes with a measure of black Cavendish. More tobaccos is interesting to do, but can tend toward muddiness of flavor or harshness, depending on proportions. Welcome aboard.
