Had to have a taste at 13days, and seems so good so far, thank god this substitution seems a success so far as made 500ml of the bat due to the overwhelming praise of the original and already at just barely 2 weeks oh my god its great :D:D Still got atleast 4weeks more steeping to have and hopefully only getting better.. Thanks to Kevin Reed for the original, which I had to substitute some ingredients due to not having all of the ones in original recipe in stock..
Damn it's good atleast for my own taste :D Next time gonna try smaller batch and substitute the New York cheesecake totally with just Cheesecake Graham Crust and maybe up the Cured Tobacco to 0.2%.
Anyways its so good that this has been my go to of the different batches I made, next dipping in to the pistachio version, in which I used only New York cheesecake and not any Graham Crust and see if the cheese flavor has balanced out.. Still that pistachio variation was also nice as well..
