Last night I read this thread for one more time, and I reach the point where Bob - deluxestogie explained how to mediate the acidity of Virginia with Perique. When it comes to principles of blending tobacco, it is a desert out there, at least in my experience so far. The terminology is difficult to grasp, and it appears that not much material is available in a written form. I can testify that it is difficult to deal with this subject for a novice. Most of you who are pipe tobacco smokers, growers and processors most likely do not remember your early days. The knowledge and experience offered here by so many are boggling my mind. I read it, I think, 5 or 6 times and I still didn't internalize all treasures that are scattered here. The most important for me was and still is to learn how different types of tobacco interact with each other and what results can I expect from this interaction. I was trying to find some interesting recipes for blending my tobaccos and learn principles of blending. Until I stumbled at this forum and this thread specifically, it was a rather frustrating experience. Since November last year (this was when I started smoking pipe), I have seen many forums and read many different posts and blogs. It is also a good time to make comments about this forum and specifically about this thread. So, thank you to deluxestogie for posting these recipes and all the info in this thread. These are exactly the types of tobaccos that I learn to like in my short venture with a pipe smoking. It will be a long evening and a lot of smoke in my place. When I tried these mixes, I knew it's going to be something good, so I decided to give them some time to meld. These are not "unmanufactured" tobaccos from WLT, so I am at a disadvantage a bit, but I worked with what I had on hand. When I mixed these two blends, I already had my blending tobaccos purchased from commercial websites. One is a Warspur, and the other is a Rich Creek - both posted in this thread by deluxestogie. I prepared these blends about a month ago.
