I’m thinking of pulling the trigger on C & D Bright Virginia ribbon, Burley Ribbon, and Granulated Perique, do some of my own blending with these components.

Their blenders are very good. I just tried the cubed Burley, it was really tasty and can see it beefing up other blends for sure. Have you tried their Big n Burley? I think it is comprised of those components.

I have not tried Big n Burley. I’ll check it out. Orion’s Arrow looks interesting.

I thought I'd give them a try.


That's a good looking Nording also. Good luck with it.
