(3.50)
Dark stoved Virginia and fiery red Virginia mixed together in one of our most popular blends.
Notes: Scotty’s Old Red combines beautifully matured mahogany red Virginia tobacco, specially processed to bring out a tangy sweetness, with slowly stoved Virginia that has turned jet black. The result is remarkably deep flavor for an all-Virginia blend; an excellent value as well.

I had a pipe of this today I really enjoyed it! good smoke for a great price. for me the blend was very moist i tried some that i dried and compared it to the non-dried. The dried was much better.

This is a nice virginia blend that reminds me of McClellands Blsckwoods Flake, only difference is the tobacco is fully rubbed out and the reds are more dominant in this mix. The flavor is very smooth and creamy for a virginia and has a nice aroma as well. Me being an English fan this one can be a little one demensional but will provide a decent change of pace for rotation.
I would highly recommend this blend for seasoned smokers; new smokers may not like it so much.

Finally.....A great Va. bulk blend at an affordable price. Scotty has a winner. As stated in the description this is pure Va.(red, and stoved) fully rubbed out and ready for the match. My pouch came just a little moist for my taste. The aroma has a rich fermenting scent. The pack, light, and burn is very good. The taste is smooth, sweet, and spicey. I have found a few (very few) blends that have IMHO a better flavor. For the difference in price I will give this fine house blend four stars, and will be ordering more for the cellar.

I put this at the top of my list for "camping" tobaccos! Old Red has an incredible mellow taste and the room note is fantastic. Upon the first smell of the tobacco I thought "Wow, what a great pipe smoke for a walk in the Adirondacks!".
A winner every time in my book!
