I am new to custom blending. I know i like clove cigs, but was unable to find ryo clove blends (i've searched the internet and hassled my local tobacco shop). Can anyone give me a detailed recipe for making my own clove blends. I am especially curious about what kind of clove to buy and what to do to the clove before blending it with the tobacco. any help would be much appreciated!

RYOT [had, apparently NLA] a Sagamore Clove Blend. Apparently the Djarum Filtra has been discontinued. RYOT no longer has it but a Google search turns up some possibilities.

Try using a grinder to grind up some organic clove ( you can find this at a natural food store ) and blend it into your tobacco. It doesnt crackle and pop like real cloves but it tastes really good. try mixing with a danish tobacco like bali shag red.

Well, this isn't exactly a custom blend, but as an experiment i poured a bit of rum over a pound of dry tobacco and let it dry out for a few weeks. It's quite nice....

also, in another instance, i sprinkled a bit of amico fine cut mint flavored pipe tobacco into a pile of regular SYO tobacco and while not quite a menthol smoke, the cigarettes had a nice, fresh cool taste.
