I love this blend personally. It is clean, not overly difficult to wick, as I've found anyway, and I've had great luck w/ hot throw without a very long cure. Smooth set up and tops, nice color, if you use colors, and creamy appearance. However, I will caution you; the major difficulty I've experienced, and others have as well, is with pre-blends. There can and have been consistancy issues. You may not get the same results from batch to batch. I think this is a normal issue when using a natural component. But it can drive you NUTS! :rolleyes2 Maybe folks can control this more when blending for themselves. I just never had the patience for that. HTH!
