I am very sensitive to red Virginia and cannot smoke it unless there is only a tiny bit in the blend. I know when a blend has too much as once the smoke hits my tongue it feels like acid and burns like shit right from the get go.

Greg Pease makes a number of Virginias without Red Virginia. Be sure to check his list of ingredients. I smoke a lot of Six Pence and Stone Henge.
I’m very sensitive to red va’s as well, and I have no issues with WCC’s Flake #558 (a favorite). Match Victorian is also a good choice. +1 on cigrmaster’s suggestions as well.
Regarding GLP’s vapers, I thought virtually all of them have a fair amount reds?

Unless Red Va has been "aired" out and mellowed, I get very funny things going on. Not allergic reaction, but feels like it's too potent or something. Almost "should I puke?" But once it's settled, it's really good.
Sidenote – I suspect GLP‘s Telegraph Hill is a blend in which reds are not dominant. I’ve never tried it, and it’s on my radar.
GL Pease Navigator has no reds that I can taste. It is a Virginia/Kentucky blend with a light run topping that I can't honestly say it is rum, but it does a have a nice sweetness and the Kentucky mellows really well.
I bought 35 tins of the 2012 when it first came out and then another 15 or so a few years later.

The reds must be a really small amount as it would would burn me right away. I love the flavors of Haddo's Delight but it burns me right away.
I am sorry I got confused about the title of the thread and suggested GL Pease Navigator which is not a vaper. Sorry for the confusion.
Jesse, you are killing me with that sig tag, can you give it a rest for a couple of decades or so.
