Red Virginias

[bent1]

The real "vinegary" stuff was made by McClelland, a byproduct of their processing. It flashed off pretty quickly. Aged red Virginias tend to have more of a tang to them. Occasionally, some Virginias develop a more prominent sweetness to them after years of aging, or they don't.

I’ve noticed that tang vs sweetness in the same blend. Had a small jar of 5100 that had a citrus twinge to it, worked well blending with Haunted Bookshop.

No fans of Sutliff 515-RC-1? I love that stuff, especially in the summertime.

Can anyone suggest Red leaning tobaccos that are in Europe?

HU Janneman Flake is outstanding for my taste.

Solani Silver Flake in 100 gr tins comes to mind

Simply Red from Watch City Cigar is a good tasting red.

Be careful of Watch City. Many of their offerings have distinct flavorings added.
