Cased Tobacco Pipe Blend Recipes

Very cool process. Thanks for sharing. Did you get any fermented aroma?

No but if it happens it is usually 3-6 months after pressing. The famous McC smell has happened with Monkel's Best and Red Queen which spurred my the Red Ribbon Experiment post. I have never gotten it in plug form but slicing flakes and jarring with occasional opening 4-6 weeks seems to kick it off.

Please shou us some pictures (and measures) when you make next batch of pipe tobacco. I would also like to try.

I mix in alcohol, stir it well, remove any midribs, then I vacuum pack it. What I did today was 300 g of lamina and 20 cl of rum and 20 cl of Tennessee Fire. I divided it into three vacuum bags. Then I put it under some towels on top of our water heater where it is just over 40 degrees Celsius. Then it is left there for a few months, or until my "old" tobacco runs out The first three pictures are the tobacco from the last time I made pipe tobacco. Partly what I have left in my humidor, and then a tobacco plug that I pressed for 3-4 months in a paste press.

I also usually bring a tablespoon of honey that I dissolve in the alcohol, but I forgot about it today

I'm no expert on this fermentation thing, not really knowledgeable at all, and smoking a pipe isn't a big deal to me, I mostly use snus, but I'm happy with this pipe tobacco, I don't require anything else
