[QUOTE="Kyle Weiss, post: 400723, member: 1969"] Red VAs are one of those leafs that get overlooked a lot. Not because they aren't used, but they don't stand up and shout anything in particular. They whisper, even if enthusiastically. They're not boring, but they're simply not in-your-face. For whatever reason, they mix incredibly well with touches of things, be they Latakia or a Turkish leaf. I have also heard people describe mixtures heavy in Red VA as woody, cardboard like, akin to leaf litter, slightly sour, even bitter. One of the few things Monblablabla and I agree upon on is Red VA. He describes his McClelland Virginia Woods tobacco, which is a largely Red VA mix, as I would Embarcadero, with slight differences. Overall, though, he gets his tobacco. I don't get his tobacco. He doesn't get my tobacco. But we came to strikingly similar conclusions about similar things. What does that mean? Nothing, really. :lol: My apologies for chiming in so frequently, but eff it, I've written secret love poems to Lady Barc many times. I'm a bit obsessed. S'all good. 8) [/QUOTE]
