I want to begin test marketing different blended tobaccos, but I need someone to come up with the blends first.
If you want to help design a few blends, I'll supply the tobacco.
The first 5 people who reply to this thread will receive 2 1/2 - 3 lbs of a combination of 6 or 7 different tobaccos for creating different blends. Basically, you'll measure (weigh) the different components in the blend and any subsequent adjustments to the blend. Information on toppings and/or casings must also be included.
You must have a proper shredder or shredding skills and a scale that can measure grams or ounces. The tests must be done reasonably scientifically so the blend can be reproduced.
You are at complete liberty to treat the tobacco in any way you see fit. Toasted/untoasted, cased/uncased etc. If you want to name your blend, I'll consider that too.
You are free to discuss your experiments here or keep your results top secret...it's up to you. Everyone who replies to this request will remain anonymous unless they reveal their intents themselves in this thread.
Once several recipes are submitted, quantities will be adjusted to create 2 lb. bags of whole leaf and then sent to other members to be tested and critiqued.
Properly designed blends that are used in production as well as any names of the blend used in production deserve compensation. Blends designed by the participants of this project and used in production will be given a $100 credit toward any cigarette tobacco in stock at www.WholeLeafTobacco.com.
If a blend is selected to be reproduced for market and nearly identical recipes are received, each contribution will receive the above credit.
To qualify for this promotion, you must be a member before today and have at least 25 posts (before the time of this edit).
