It's kind of like smoking a bald eagle, the rarity makes it delicious.

Bug Powder is definitely great, but not 30 bucks great. I wouldn't really consider anything I smoke 30 bucks great, anyways.

Well done Tom, awesome pic. When you smoke bald eagle, does the smoke soar away?
I think if I were to smoke some bald eagle I'd probably de-beak it first ...

so i just picked up a 250 of it and i must say... meh... whats the big deal? its good and all but not earth shattering and certainly not worth the 30 bones youll be paying for it. on that note if its all the leftovers shouldnt it be cheaper? i mean if you go to any factory they give you the f*ck ups and left overs for half price.

Cool. I need more people to think like you so there will be more available for me to buy.

What factory is this? I'm not really interested in scraps and leftovers for ANY brand of tobacco.

Anyways, as good as Tangiers is, I don't think its a mixture of scraps and f ups mixed together and packaged. I'm not sure anything about the Tangiers process is that simple. Bug Powder is a complex flavor and I can definately see that it wouldn't be a flavor for everyone. I bet you'd find alot of willing participants in trades for this stuff though...

hey KBB....i'm pretty sure Eric mentioned that Bug Powder is the "other half" of Schnozzberry. Schnozzberry was the leftovers of the fruit and similar flavors. Bug Powder is the leftovers of everything else - mint, kashmir, floral, etc.

I wish more Bug Powder was made...some more might be out in March...maybe April. Not much of this stuff ends up excess in production, unfortunately. Its the bucket we throw the excess from Mint, Kashmir, herbal and Floral flavors. If we jump too soon, it ends up all weird. Thats all I can report. The fortunes of war? The war of fortune? Apparently, Hookah Company has already sold more than half of the 4Kg they got already. We were talking about it today.

Im waiting for my tax return for my next large tobacco order, but if HookahJohn runs out of bug powder, i just might attempt to make my own.

Whacha guys think, this combo get me close to Bug Powder?

250g Mint
250g Kashir Cherrry
250g Indigo Flower (or Blue flower)

hmmm, i didn't think it tasted like blue flower at all, not even a hint.

I think the more flavors the better (funds permitting of course). Everything is so proportionate that it's really hard to pinpoint what flavors you should add.

from what i've picked up....i'm going to try this mix:

Kashmir
Mint
Blue Flower
maybe a tiny bit of lemon blossom, just for personal preference.

if you can't get your hands on Kashmir, K-Apple is as close as you can get from the vendors...

I looked for straight up kashir then adding schnozzberry to get that fruit undertone, but im a big fan of KCherry.

I havent had Indigo Flower before but Ive had Blue flower. So im thinkin, the light Fruity (berryish) floral with the Cherry Kashmir and then the Mint would be pretty close. And actually even if it isnt like it, it sounds fucking fantastic hahaha.

I have about 200g left so Im gonna have to do some research.

i dunno if it's just me, but the Kashmir in K-Peach is very different from the Kashmir in K-Cherry...

K-Peach's is more vibrant and sharp...K-Cherry's is more earthy and mellow...i like K-Cherry's better....i wonder if it's the secondary flavor that affects how the kashmir comes out....

im not saying i dont like it... it is good and i will smoke it all with joy. what im saying is ill never buy it it again. la fin du monde is my fav beer but i wouldnt suggest someone go search for it then buy it because its 10 bucks a 24 and there are plenty of other beers that are just as good for less than half the price.
