Blending Experiment

[NeverBend]

By the way, Pete @NeverBend, I seem to have received 2 samples of the same blends (606), so maybe Wayne also got a duplicate? I'm happy to mail him one.

Hi Chico,

Thanks for letting me know. If Wayne(@OnePyroTech) hasn't received some Mixture 606 I would be grateful if you could forward some to him.

Hi Chico,

Just pm'd Wayne. I'm wondering if he also received a duplicate, since in my package there was only the two 606s and the two versions of Double Bass.

I forgot to mention yesterday that about 3/4 down the bowl, there was a burst of distinct anise-like flavor. Totally unexpected, but delicious.

I just finished a bowl of the other version, and enjoyed it. It seemed crisper, lighter, toasty, and more incense-like, but also with a fuller bottom note if that makes sense. Not much mid-range (all woofer and tweeter). I tasted eucalyptus a few times, some herbal notes, but it seemed to lack the complexity of the other version. It was also smooth with a lot of smoke, though not as cool, and seemed to burn really quickly.

I was really curious to compare them side-by-side, so about 2/3 through the bowl I had some coffee then lit half a bowl of the first version. And now I'm totally confused! It tasted like a completely different blend to what I smoked last night. One-dimensional and waxy. I mean like burning wax. It may be the pipe, or maybe I just fried my palate smoking two lat blends in a row. I'm going to give them both a rest for a week or so, and come back to them fresh.

Hi Chico,

You were supposed to have a sample of "G" as well so it's probable that Wayne has 2 of them.

Pretty much it comes down to this...if something tastes good then I intended it to be so and if not then it wasn't my fault .

Hey, that's been my assumption all along!
