Hi. I found liquorice syrup to buy at local shop. Wonder, is that would be OK for casing. It's about 5% of root extract, suger, ethanol and water as ingredients.

There's only one way to find out, let us know how it works out.
I think it would be fine to use on Air Cured types like Burley, Maryland, and Dark Air.
...and yes, please let us know.

Well. The smell has changed in a good way. Something like it just tooked from fermenting chamber. And yes, it is air cured tobacco. I mixed it 50/50 with water before spaying. Tomorrow have to try first cigarette. It is 'Glycyrrhizae syrup" made in Ukraine that I'm using, can be found on Google.

Keep on playing with casing, very interesting. Just wondering, am I doing right? 50% suger to 50% water or rum for wetting shredded tobacco. And I'm about to use the same quantitys for second casing. Reducing than non reducing sugars. Or I should go for less suger, as it gets really sticky.
