McCranie's Southport

Made from rich, orange and red Virginias with a touch of perique to create a refreshing smoke with a satisfying richness and depth of flavor. This broken flake is for the straight smoker.

And here we have yet even another McClelland blend Bulk 2015 re-named by McCranies. My question is why bother renaming it?

After looking over some of the reviews for Southport my thought is, who gives a rip whether this is McClelland's 2015 with a fancier name? I personally don't care if its the same blend or not. Just keep it comin' boys!
Southport is not wimpy in the Virginia department with an overwhelming amount of Perique. The balance weighs on the side of the quality Virginia leaf and super ripe Perique.
The flake breaks up easily and is easily loaded. The burn is even and the flavor varies just enough to be interesting as the leaf is consumed. There is an ever so slight tendency for this one to bite if puffed on with reckless abandon.
Virginia/Perique addicts will buy this stuff by the ton.

Exactly the same as Bulk 2015 from McClelland -- I asked, they said yes! See my review and so many others for that fine blend.
