I just wanted to say how much I appreciate your generosity in sharing your knowledge with the rest of the pipe community.
Thank you for the kind comment! I am learning all the time and it's an honor to share that! To me, that is what makes tobacco so cool. There is always more to learn.
Ditto
My dad use to own a tobacco shop and blend his own mixes. This video brought me back to some old core memories and smells. Thanks for that.
I say it again and again, I could just sit and listen to Jeremy all day long.
Why thank you very much! I got a face made for radio, as they say.
I'm a big fan of C&D, the videos, the labels, the cordial atmosphere one sees from interactions abroad on other channels...makes me feel as part of a community. And, the tobacco blends are wicked good. Long Live the Exhausted Rooster! Keep them Hen's a cluckin'.
Hey Jeremy Fantastic video as always I was really interested in the blending 101 course. Thanks for going into so much detail. Who better to get lessons from than a master blender. I might even try it now. Cheers, Jim
Jim, thanks so much for tuning in! Details are my favorite part of just about anything I enjoy doing. Some call it "getting into the weeds" but to me, that's the garden! I hope you do try your hand at blending. It's fun and even if it doesn't take, you'll likely learn something new about the tobaccos you're using and the manufactured blends that you enjoy as well. Best, Jeremy
Is there an actual blending 101 course that you can take or watch? Thanks! 😊
I have been blending for several years now and it’s wonderful to see a master at work. Yes I use many components from your company to blend with. Thank you for taking the time to show us your genius.
I look forward to any of your videos!!I hope you continue with these videos.😎
Your content is great! Thanks so much for the hard work that goes into everything you guys do.
Between the beard and the black gloves I'm expecting Jeremy to serve me up a pulled pork sandwich and a half slab of ribs 😂
Made pulled pork this weekend, as a matter of fact!
I use a spray bottle to add the flavour and mist spray it to get a better distribution of alcohol and flavour .
I bought a can of cross eyed cricket. Wow that was tasty! 3 years of pipe smoking. That's my 3rd favorite. 1. Plum pudding 2. Chocolate moose 3. Cross eyed cricket
Great video definitely - - I have a Moretti pipe that has a 2.5 inch chamber. I typically will pack 2 to 4 layers of different aromatic tobaccos. You wanna talk about delicious? Absolute heaven.
From perspective of a student crtiqueing a teacher. FLAWLESS!!!! Intersting/informative/clear/concise. An example of clear knowledge & skill & an inspiration ! I thuroughly enjoyed your presentation & the courtesy you showed by presenting this tradition with us. Tyvvm good sir. Ppl like you encourage & sustain interest in pipe smokeing. So appreciated !❤❤❤
Wow, thank you. I am truly humbled by your comment. I am and hope to always be a student. If I can share what I have learned along the way, all the better. Thank you for watching!
Love the Iron Heart shirt brother. Thanks for the valuable blending information.
Thanks man! Glad you liked it.
I have been doing my blending all wrong. Thanks, Jeremy, for the basics. I learned some great tips.
Thank you very much for making this video. It truly has been very helpful and informative. I hope that you continue to make these videos for us home blending enthusiasts. Keep up the great work 😉
Simply a brilliant and relaxed presentation that I found at the perfect time as I plan to re-blend and top some English blends more to my preference. Cheers from Australia.
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks! I’m smoking 8 State right now. I have many of your blends on hand and have smoked dozens. I have favorites though. Cube cut Burley is a favorite for flavor and burning rate control.
Great video! I hope you will post one with any adjustments that you make. That would be incredibly interesting to see the continuing process. Cheers!
Thanks Jeremy- great video. I love watching these informative videos that you & C&D put out. America is lucky to have you.
Very kind of you to say. Thank you for watching!
I buy bulk ribbon cut perique and use it with a handful each of VA and burley. It takes these perfectly wonderful varietals to another place or level. A Sterlite salad bowl with cover serves as my workspace AND storage as I typically smoke a Sterlite bowl at a time. ha ha. I usually mix up about 2 oz at a time, just grabbing stuff by the hand and then the toss in the bowl using my fingers as separating forks, like Jeremy was doing.
Dude you are going full blown George RR martin
Haha, chubbier than I would like, for sure.
Jeremy finishes what he starts, though, and makes genuine masterpieces.
@@NikeaTiber Thank you so much!
Real men have beards 🧙♂️
Perfect timing! I have just been getting interested in at-home blending.
I enjoy listening to you describe how the blending process works and I have learned a lot in a short video, your passion shines through. A lot of what you mention makes a lot of sense and I have slowly began to test adding more of the CnD Perique to some of my favorite blends and wow what a difference a little can make (Fantastic added into Sillems Black) Cheers Jeremy and thanks for the video!
You don't realize how lucky you are to be in a free country.
in Europe (apart Germany and England) no tobacco Culture, cigarettes and propaganda + prices worthy of a war!!
Thank you for this freedom video 👍🏻💖🌹
Here in Greece the prices of cigar and pipe tobacco( and the lack of blends) is criminal. Spain and Italy are way cheaper than gayreece
Your channel needs more than 11,000 subscribers. There are so few REAL pipe blending experts on RUclips, but you guys are certainly one of them.
Thanks for watching and the support!
Great timing, just as I began experimenting with this myself. Maybe I had a lucky start, but I really enjoy this simple blend I made...
45% Matured Red Virginia
45% Perique
10% Green River Black Cavendish
thats a lot of Perique in there . I'd be more inclined to use 45% GR Black Cavendish and 10% Perique .
@@mista2621 I love perique... The blend is in a similar vein as C&D's Exclusive
Fantastic video. I’ll try this. Sometimes, I will blend tobacco that I don’t like, with some that I do, but it’s always small scale. Saves it from waste, and stretches my favorites m. C&D makes it too easy, by selling excellent tobacco.
Wow! Great video Jeremy! Thank you very much for sharing your master blending techniques, it has been very helpful and fun. I'm looking forward to trying out this particular blend. Happy Blending and Happy Smokes!
thank you, master.
Too kind. I am not a master of anything. But I really appreciate your comment and thank you for watching!
This is really encouraging. After having so many great and interesting blends, it's encouraging to see how uncomplicated the process is. Something to try at home. Thank you, Jeremy!
Great video…thanks Jeremy! 😊
Great tips as always Jeremy thanks for educating us tobaccy nerds!
wonderful information, jeremy...thanks. looking forward to the follow up video already...
amazing video ! thank you so much best regards from Mexico.
Thanks for making this video! I started smoking pipes, and really enjoy your videos.
Very interesting video! I enjoy seeing how you blend tobaccos!
awesome video and it gave me some ideas of what tobaccos to try next. Im new but blending has been half the fun of smoking pipes for me so far.
Jeremy, this is outstanding. Thanks so much. I can’t think of a better way to get into blending, and I’m totally going to follow along at home.
Thanks so much for participating! I am glad to hear that you enjoyed the video.
the best tobaccos on earth... Outcome will be splendid
Thank you.
Peter stokkebye has some great blends.
Guys are supposed to get worse at dressing the older they get, not better. Someone has been hanging around Truett and Shane 🤩
No need for me to comment on the tobacco because everyone here knows Jeremy is a legend.
I'll take that. Pretty sharp dressers, those fellas. :) Thanks for watching.
Great video Jeremy
Thank you so much!
Very very interesting and helpful, thanks for sharing.
I like my blends with a few beard hairs in there, that’s the burly.
The best of videos! A pleasure to watch and most informative, thank you, and keep up the beautiful art!
Thanks Jeremy!
My pleasure! Thank you for watching.
Very cool thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Love your blends dude
Thank you so much!
That 10% perique changed the whole blend. I'd be curious to try this.
Very helpful! Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Nice.
Beautiful!
Sounds great so far
Super helpful! Thank you JR!
one of the coolest guys
Too kind, sir. I appreciate you taking the time to watch!
Start small! Great advice! Great video! Thank you, Sir!!!
I've learned a lot of good stuff from this! 😀
thank you
Wow, this is wonderful stuff. Thank you for sharing your work here. How dry should the tobacco be? If I’m blending at home, should I be drying the tobacco a bit or would I just lose moisture
Really fun. I enjoyed this
Thanks good job
i smoked my first C&D blend, it was a 2year old (sealed) Black Frigatte, it didn't have a lot of rum flavour bit a bit of a bitter, medicinal note.
is that my pipe, or the tobacco?
Fantastuc content. Love this!
Ah, a new RUclips genre: tobacco ASMR. Genius! Haha
Haha! You're on to us! Thank you for watching.
Lots of useful tips! Thank you thank you thank you!!
I need a sweet honey no bite recipe lol please world! Nobody local anymore 😞 . Have a great day every!
If I want to blend in already processed tobaccos that are wet, should I dry them out first?
If you are blending with packaged, moist tobaccos, then additional moisture won't be necessary, so no need to dry down your components first.
Is the secret ingredient a snub or two of that glorious beard hair?
BTW you look fairly young, surprised and a little jealous of your wizard-like looks and capabilities.
Wish you'd blend some more Carolina Red Flake with that new 31 Farms Perique! 🤞🤞
Actually we already have! The second time we released CRFwP, we used 31 Farms Perique. That was the first thing we made with their Perique, as a matter of fact!
@@jeremyreeves6425 I just cracked a tin of that on Sunday. It's really great stuff. I would love another CRF w/Perique release if you've got a red virginia worthy of it.
@@Lighter420 Then you will be pleased to see what we are planning for the fall! Stay tuned!
Great videos as always Jeremy. I notice your cube cut burley shrunk considerably over the last 5 or six years maybe more. How do u keep the small cubes from escaping from the mixture due to their size? Also if I want to make 4 oz of mixture do I 1/4 the volume of topping?
👍
What's up JC?
As a fellow knife and pipe enthusiast I enjoy your content. I actually sharpen/restore/repair knives
Nice Chris Reeve Sebenza in your profile photo! That's a bucket list pipe for sure! My EDC is currently a customized Benchmade Barrage.
Thanks. So much for this, I am just beginning to do home blending, mostly with your components. Would you recommend starting with a 1 oz mixture or is that too small?
Thank you so much for watching! I am really glad to hear that this was helpful to your home blending and that you are making use of our components. 1oz. is not too small at all. In fact, I often make .5 or .25 oz samples to start. Once I find a mix that I like, then I will scale up. Just work in percentages so that whatever batch size you choose to make, you can be very precise in your measurements.
Can dried ground spices be used in place of liquid flavor mixtures if moisture content is already good?
More ytpc awesomeness
Sr Jeremy Reaves bom dia, quando o senhor faz as suas misturas, deixa na caixa que o senho fez o bolo ou colocaria numa caixa de madeira para envelhecimento igual ao vinho? Saudações de Vargem-Sp Brasil.
Goood🎉
Thanks alot sir👍👍
Question: I bought a great many tins of C&D Dreams of Kadath with it's large whiskey topping.
How does a tin with a high alcohol content age compared to just a pure tobacco cake?
Hi, nice video, may i know what Haunted bookshop have topping or casing or both?
How much distilled water did you use?
Great video. Going to add this recipe to my repertoire.
can we use a sugar and vinegar solution to rehydrate it
Experimentation is recommended!
Jazz hands and spirit fingers sounds like a really kooky crime fighting duo
I love C&D products, especially the Black Cherry and the Apricots and Cream. I am however really frustrated. I have been searching to all of my capacity and know to find out how to make an aromatic tobacco. Nobody has any professional guide on this. I find a lot of shoot from the hip we're going to try something aromatic blenders, but nobody really explains the process at all. I have books of over 140 English tobacco blends, but nothing about aromatics except maybe a page in the entire book. I don't want any trade secrets, or fine details on what the blend is or even what the topping is. But I would like to know if the topping is oil based, alcohol extract based, PG based, some combination of that, or maybe even something completely different I have not heard about or are overlooking. Just something other than cased English blends to the max. I love English blends. I just want to see anything aromatic as I have not found what I would consider to be a reputable source on this. Thanks
Здравствуйте Сэр не поделитесь рецептами английских смесей .
@@user-fm2dp5iu7r That makes 0 sense what you posted.
I don't smoke, but I have never wanted to smell a video so badly in my life.
You should start, it’s good for you.
Do pipe or cigar shops usually cell loose leaf chew, and dips? I'm looking for places that will have more inventory than a gas station
Sell*
This is one cool dude
I'm pretty confident I've smoked some of this dude beard at some point
Haha, we wear beard nets, hair nets and gloves during real manufacturing.
Alcohol , tobacco and firearms
If i tell u i want to make a sweetisch Tobacco with a gentle but still very present spice.. could u tell me what i would need for this? :o i am thinking about making my own blends :) the sweetness should almost taste like maple sirup, woody for the spice side :) my guess was virginia gold and maybe any kind of orient on top? but i think after i saw your video i need not only 2 to actually get wat i want :o
looking for a blend called old mule
Keren
👏👏👏👏
Raise pH-level with vinegar?
Heard that too!
Interesting!
Mr. Pete---------->
aging hippie
Thanks for watching, David!
...but why not just pick up the container and gently shake it? Eh, what am I missing here??
😉
Vinegar contains acetic acid; it lowers the pH!
The acid could react with the more harsh substances in the tobacco, neutralizing them and leaving behind salts or other compounds that might result in a different (even higher?) pH balance after drying. This could mean that the presence of vinegar (in very small amounts), contributes to a smoother final product, post-evaporation .. Seems plausible and aligns with what might be happening in the complex mixture of tobacco additives, but I'm not a chemist, so don't listen to me! 🙂
Weeds never looked better
I intensely dislike the taste of burley in any tobacco blend. Maybe I’m just allergic to it.
That is a hat you have to commit to
😂
I like to call pipe tobacco pipe weed because I’m a Lord of the Rings fan!!!
Why would I want to blend pipe tobacco with 2 humans? Seems like a risk not worth the smoke.
I don’t think I understand what you mean. 2 humans? I’m missing something here. Please say more?
