McClelland Virginia Woods (Craftsbury Series)

Virginia Woods is a Virginia-based, lightly flavored ribbon-cut blend McClelland released under its Craftsbury Series. The topping level stays light enough not to mask the tobacco; the brand's natural tangy-sweet character and the mature taste of dark, cured Virginias remain in front, leaving a fruity sweetness on the tongue. Burns dry and even; once relit after the first light, it needs no further attention through to the bottom of the bowl. Discontinued with McClelland's closure.
