For a while i have been trying diffrent mixes of tobacco to get the taste i want from my smoke, something i'll enjoy and have as my main everyday smoke. Yesterday i found it, i mixed Kentucky nuggat with buttered rum, Century columbian coffee, plain Black cavendish, honey and dark flake. I tried it as a sample to start and enjoyed the sweet aromatic taste and the smell from it is pretty good too. At the moment it's sitting in it's new air tight box marinating for a couple of days while i finish off my old mix. My new quest is to find a Balkan mix which i'm sampling some of at the moment i like variety and trying to minimise the boredom of smoking the same blend all the time. Having others to go at would help. I don't like BIG nic hitters i prefer them mild so i can smoke the whole bowl but enough to give me the satisfaction that i don't want another bowl. Apart from the mix i have made up and a Balkan what other types or varieties can i try. As i'm an aromatic fanatic i'm up for trying anything once. I have heard escudo being mentioned what is it.

Thanks Lawrence for the link and having read the description could yourself or anyone tell me about the strength that this tobacco produces. Is it the kind you smoke for 5 mins and get a BIG nic hit, if so can it be mellowed by mixing something with it, if it can what tobacco is best used to reduce the high nicotine level. Thanks for any help on this in advance guys n gals.
