Tobacco Blend of your Dreams

[boston]

Always a pleasant surprise to find a new blend that 'clicks', especially in time to build a stash while available.
On another note, do you like 1792 fresh or with some age?

I suppose it would be smoother and more mellow over time but age of 1792 is something I never really experimented with. It's smooth enuf (no bite for me) new that I never thought about ageing to make it smoother. And it's cased so I'm not concerned about it getting sweeter. I will say that sometimes casing seems to become less apparent with age, and...Gawith lots can vary a bit in casing flavor / strength.

This sounds like the original Dunhill My Mixture concept.. Imagine something like that in 2022: a local tobacconist that blends top-shelf leaves to your specifications. Would be amazing.

Ideally I'd love a Boozy Lat Bomb - choice fresh & red virginias with an equal portion of Syrian Latakia, spiced with a kick of St. James Perique, drenched in something like a Laphroig or Ardbeg, then aged for 5 years and sliced into flakes.

Alternatively, a recently "At Home Blend" I've been really enjoying is KBV's Verge Engine Overdrive with about 20% FHM's Shortcut to Mushrooms.

Damn! That does sound delicious. ?️

The key to answering these type of questions is to not name blends that are in high demand.? Alright, If we’re dreaming I’d take this without question…
This blend was so damn good. Outside of that, I don’t need to dream…Haunted Bookshop does it for me. ?️

HH burley flake. Just the way it is.

I went 50/50 with McC 40th Anniversary and Sutliff TS24 that was amazing.?

Sounds good to me
I missed the boat on McC 40th but I’ve been mixing 5100 with TS24 and it tastes pretty good.

Ha ha
Messed that up - I don’t have any 5100 either
I meant Sutlif 515-RC

I'm a noob. More than enough tins out there to keep me busy. Haven't even looked at plugs and such yet.

A Samuel Gawith that stayed lit would be a nice dream blend.

You still have STM???

Here's a stab --
Starting with Plum Pudding Bourbon Barrel Aged as a reference point, trade out the VAs with HH Pure Virginia and then dial up that base a notch... then dial up the Orientals a notch.

That might be approaching an ideal, for me.

Already found it, Sutliff TS24.

Have you tried Peter Stokkebye 313? If so, how does it compare?

They 313 is Macedonian alone while TS24 has yenidje, basma and samsun. Being that 313 appears to only be available at P&C, I won't be smoking it.

Down to my last 20 or so ounces but that'll probably last me more than a lifetime.

Being as they're all unavailable here & have already been mentioned: Semois, HH Burley, Haunted Bookshop... - a blend like them - that smokes as I imagine those do from comments here!
