I'm Brad, been chewing Redman for 30 years. Looking at making my own chew from whole leaf.May eventually get into growing.First couple of tests making leaf chew is from some old cigars I had that I didn't take care of, dried out.Brought the moisture content back up, chopped them up, and the chew came out pretty darn good. Can really taste the tobacco after a while andits not quite what i'm looking for yet.Anyway, have been learning a lot from the site, and now am looking to get some whole leaf of a couple different varieties to try and get my chew to something that is outstanding. I think the cigar blends are not quite right for chewing.Have had good luck with the recipes I've found on this site, and tweaking them to what I think will be good. The flavor has been great, just after an hour or so, it gets a little bitter. Thanks for any, and all help.
