Enjoying this one today, I only let it sit overnight. I went through a week aged 3 mL tester without the Black Fire that was pretty good. Started with 0.25% Black Fire yesterday and didn't notice a big difference so added another 0.25% today to taste as well as too make smaller batches easier. Cigar Passion has a citrus note that goes well with Rum

Jamaican Rum (FA), 2.00%
Raisin (TFA), 0.75%
Cigar Passion (FA), 0.50%
Black Fire (FA), 0.50%

By "Over the others" do you mean other brands of which I have not tried or stronger than CP and BF? I first mixed Raisin at the same 0.5% and it was good, it's a new flavor for me and I wanted to taste it a little more. This came about after mixing spices and citrus to TFA Rum experiments and later trying some cigar passion recipes I had been steeping. When I added my own citrus it was too strong no matter how small I made the percents. The Cigar Passion adds the right amount of "twang" on the exhale. I'll give it time to decide on the Black Fire. I like the Raisin.
