A Better Pipe Smoking Community

I should say home mixing instead of blending, most of us don't have the means and knowledge to do real blending.
Because I'm mixing small quantities I and all the tobaccos have a similar cuts I used a small glass (looks like a tequila shot glass) and did the mixing by volume. I have a digital kitchen scale but it only measure grams, not 1/10's so, the error would be too big for this quantities.

- Capt. Bob's "Pot O' Gold" -
3 x Two Friends Heritage
2 x C&D Riverboat Gambler
1 x C&D Autumn Evening

- My Own "Chinese Morning 51" -
5 * Synjeco's Wenti Blend (light english with a bit of latakia)
1 * C&D #522G Granulated Blending Perique (8 months old)

I'm yet to try Pot O' Gold, I mixed it today and I'll give it a try tomorrow, but I have tasted all the ingredients and I anticipate a very good light aro. You can order Pot O' Gold directly from C&D but it's not on their catalog, you must ask for it.

I imagined Chinese Morning to be my morning smoke, usually I smoke VAs or VApers in the morning but I wanted something a bit different. My first try with 2 parts of Wenti Blend to 1 part of Perique was a failure as a morning smoke, it's a very potent and flavorful smoke and I bet that most guinea-pigs would be sound a sleep before ending a size 3 bowl. So, for a morning smoke, it's a no-no.
So I tried with a lot less perique, 5 parts of Wenti Blend to 1 part of Perique. I got the same flavor but now the Perique is not so overwhelming if I had it available I would have tried to add 1/2 part of white burley to round things a bit.
Anyway, I find it good enough to have mixed about 2 oz of it, but I fear that it is very far from a good morning smoke
