Saddled up and awaiting orders, sounds very promising...Just mixed up 4 of my Hell on Wheels tobacco ideas.
1. Bohannon's Bride
What I'm aiming for: This man lives for his gun, has a dark past haunting him and the only reprise is his love for his raped and murdered wife. A dark tobacco, to resemble his past and inner demons, coupled with a sweet fruit to resemble the fond memories of his sweet wife.
2. Bohannon's Boots:
What I'm aiming for: A dark tobacco and spicy flue cured tobacco, reminiscent of a cowboy roll-you-own. This would probably be what condition boots are in after a long day's work on the railway and chasing off Indians.
3. Durandt's Treachery
What I'm aiming for: A dark and sinister tobacco to go with this sob's character. In Afrikaans one might say "rof, grof en onbeskofte tabak". This won't be for cream and fruit lovers, neither the feint of heart.
4. *****'s Nipple
What I'm aiming for: Much as in the Old West, this will be a light golden tobacco with subtle fruit nuances and sweets to remedy the heartache of life on the frontier.
Will update after at least a two-week steep.
