Re: Rattray's Question
Not that I'm aware of off the top of my head. Thanks for making me need to go find out and then needing to buy something else though.
![]() On Edit: Well, I went and looked and it doesn't appear that they have a Va/Per. Your not completely off the hook though, because I was reminded that I want to try the Brown Clunlee and Black Virginia blends from Rattray's. ![]()

I tried reading a lot of them but most of them don't describe what is actually in the blend.

Re: Rattray's Question
I do not know of a Rattray's blend that has Perique. I have added (and then let sit to age) some Perique to Marlin Flake and Old Gowrie - both blends of which no more remains.
I really like the Marlin Flake with some Perique, very tasty. The Old Gowrie is good as well, but it is a richer VA and I like it just by itself.

Re: Rattray's Question
That's a great idea!! I'll have to grab some blending Perique next time I hit the shop and add it to some of the Marlin Flake that I have sitting around. Do you remember the amounts?

Re: Rattray's Question
while "rattrays" doesn't have a Va/Per, the people who make rattrays blends also make McConnells Scottish Cake.
sooo... close enough. it's like an infinity or Nissan; or lexus/toyata...

Re: Rattray's Question
About 5%. I wouldn't do any more than that to start. If you can press it together in some way, it melds quicker.

Re: Rattray's Question
if you blend using perique...use very..very sparingly.

Re: Rattray's Question
according to kohlhase&kopp, both hotw and marlin flake contain perique (hotw contains kentucky, and marlin contains cavendish, too).
