Room Note: Pleasant
A very special Virginia Flake, created to celebrate the exceptional tobaccos of the United States of America. Red, Lemon and Orange Virginias, aged through summer sweats for over five years, then hard-pressed in cakes to age again, to mellow and marry and form this rich, bold tobacco long sought after by devoted flake smokers.
Notes: Originally introduced in December, 1993 for the Greater Kansas City Pipe Club, is now part of the Club Blends Series.
The tin note to this tobacco was nice their was the typical ketchup smell like many McClellan blends, but I do like the smell. the flake were nice and not to moist but not over dried. This blend was a pain in the butt to light, even though it was windy out today, it was just not staying light no matter what I did and I had to relight 3 times. Once I did get it lit this blend, was amazing. The room note was great and a little sweet smelling. their was a little bit of a tong bite, but if you smoke it slow enough it would not bite you. their was a great vinegary sweet yet tangy taste to this tobacco, that stayed even throughout the entire smoke. Over all I would give this blend a 4 out of 5 stars. and will put this blend into my rotation.
