Looks like warrior plug

It also looks like it would be a helluva chew!

You're the second one today that mentioned chewing these pressed hoodads. I don't chew so I don't know?! I bet half & half would be a flavorful cheek load though

Great minds think alike I was hoodad number 1 lol.

Half and Half is a sweet "chew." The anise is forward early on, then a tart cherry steps up and tobacco and the spice that goes with that. It tastes like it tastes in the bowl, only more direct. Velvet is good too.

The issue is, it's not moist or long cut like Redman or Beechnut. But neither is plug chew or rope for that matter, which also is a nice chew. But the plug and rope add moisture and a sticky quality which is nice.

So a plug of H&H or Velvet would be really good me thinks.

So I just put another batch of "the bastard" (chocolate manhood with perique) in the mold and it will stay under the screw for probably 14 days. This is measured by weight on a kitchen scale. Did a very brief stint in the microwave to make the tobacco easier to compress (around 10 seconds)

1.99oz captain black dark
0.99oz c&d blending latakia
0.49oz sutliff ts20 perique (chopped up with a sharp knife)

That's a lot of tobacco to squeeze into a 2x4 mold, glad I went with the deeper one. I'll check the clamps in a bit and again every day for a few days. Since @ncrobb asked yesterday about the amount of perique I went ahead and posted my "recipe"

Ok, I’ve put it off long enough. As soon as the car gets out of my shop I’m making a press. This sounds fantastic. Do you squeeze it down into a hard puck or a little less like a crumble cake?

The ones I'm doing with the new mold and c clamps are coming out pretty dense and staying that way. They hold up to a slicing. Here's a picture of the last one I made after 10 days under the screw

I’ve actually got a vintage general store tobacco cutter that I refurbed and ground a blade for. It’ll make short work of a plug like that. I gotta give it a go. Thanks for the info @Mr Beardsley .

That will be awesome for cutting it! This blend oozes a bit of goop when you press it but I think that's part of the magic. Obviously the Cavendish is on the wet side and all of the ooze kind of melds everything together in a hurry
