    Ah, yes. Not straight. Good advice.

    I let it dry about 45 minutes and it was a little damp still. Perhaps if I do try it again I'll mix it into something that needs a little kick. Maybe the Missouri Meerschaum Country Gentleman pouch I have. VaPer/Happy Bogie blend?

    That might work. HB is basically a virginia. Maybe you'd end up with a VAper

    Sending out a couple bomblets tonight and you're on the list; an interesting combo dreamed up by none other than @Tobias Lutz . I never would have thought of this. It's Pine Grove and G&H Dark Cherry twist. It makes for a really nice mix. It can really pack a punch too if you want it to. DCT is very similar to Happy Bogie but with just a hint of cherry flavor.

    Got the bomblet and Thank You Sir! Good stuff, interesting taste. I liked the combination quite a bit.

    Glad to hear you enjoyed it. Ya, that's a lot better way to enjoy a twist than trying to power thru it straight.
    I credit @freestoke for the concept of blending ropes and twists as you would a mixed drink, and @Tobias Lutz for coming up with this particular combination. I've mixed that same Black Cherry Twist with Dan Sweet Vanilla Honeydew and that was tasty as well. I occasionally enjoy PS Cherry Bonbon but it's a rather 'empty' smoke, if you know what I mean... don't know how else to describe it. A sprinkling of BCT cubes is just what the doctor ordered to spice that blend right up.

    Sheesh, the enablers on this site are just awful...

    I mix Dark Flake (Unscented) and Dark Sliced (they're not the same) with Stokkebye Luxury Navy Flake or Escudo. I can smoke my 30+ year old Happy Brown Bogie pigtail straight - it has mellowed with a lot of age.

    I find that Gawith Hoggarth flakes and ropes are still very similar to what they were many years ago. They were always coarse, never subtle but always big on flavor and they still deliver. My advice when smoking the high nicotine mixture is to focus on controlling the volume of smoke. Sip them slowly.
