I think I've told y'all about the psuedo-cavendish I've made in the past - basically I just steam tobacco for several hours till it gets dark, then (mostly) dry it back out.

The result is a lighter, somewhat blander tobacco that tastes vaguely of toast. It doesn't have enough flavor to smoke by itself but I use it for blending and pressed flakes to provide body and balance. Also, I make psuedo-cav from cigar rolling scraps, so it retains a little of that flavor.

Sounds like your stoving is a similar concept that doesn't dilute the flavor - will have to give that a try. I've got a fair amount of Larry's bright leaf in the file cabinet.
