Watch City's "Simply Red" (Bulk by the Ounce)

I found this tobacco to be very pleasant with an excellent flavor & room note. I highly recommend this blend.

Whether you smoke it straight or use it for a home blend, it is a must have. I always look forward to the releases.

Simply Delicious! A pleasantly sweet and mild blend. I like a naturally sweet tobacco and watch city has several to my liking (loving).

I love smoking this blend. The one note that comes out when the bag is opened is the vinegar smell. I smoke this straight or use it to make a personal blend. I always look forward to this coming out and wish it was in the WCC regular rotation of blends.

Simply delicious! Great on its own, but it can also be used as a base or mixed in to those tired old blends to wake them up. Highly recommended.

Beautifully blended Va that can be an all day smoke. A must have in any rotation.

“Simply amazing!” Simply red is everything I look for in an everyday smoke. Deep, slightly tangy, slightly citrusy, and taste reminiscent of fallen leaves. Everything that captures the tastes of fall. What was very interesting to me and very pleasurable, was in the last 1/3 of the bowl, the flavor transforms into a natural sweet black walnut. Very satisfying! Can’t wait for the next release! Thank you Watch City Cigars!! Top notch red Virginia heaven!

Sadly, I got back into pipe smoking just as McClelland was stepping out. I was lucky enough to grab a couple tins from the Frog Morton series, but never got to really smoke any of there famed Virginias. I have a few pounds of Sutliff 515 RC and have smoked a number of bowls of it as I was told this could be close to the red virginias used by McClelland. Simply Red is a completely different animal, and everything that I hope my 515 red cake matures into. I’m not good at describing exact nuances and characteristics of the leaf...I just know this is a great tobacco. I should have ordered more.

Although I'm not primarily a Virginia smoker, Simply Red is deliciously fragrant and enjoyable when I want a temporary change from Watch City's remarkable English blends. Highly recommend.

As my subject title states, "I Really Want To Lie" and say this is not a good tobacco, and you shouldn't purchase it, because I'd like to buy more for myself, but I like the pipe smoking community and when one comes across a truly delightful tobacco, one should share it, so I won't lie. Like most, I'm am/was a huge McClelland fan and just really enjoyed the hell out of their Virginias, especially Red Cake so needless to say, I was disappointed when they shut down, although I have a couple of pounds cellared. I instantly went on the hunt for a replacement and was pretty happy with the tobaccos i found until I experienced Simply Red. Just an amazing blend, that imo is even better than Red Cake. I find the fruitiness balances extremely well with the tanginess, the natural sweetness is perfect, no bite (if sipped), very pleasing room note. No drying time needed, as it is ready to smoke. The flavor is medium-bodied, but it's a well-rounded medium flavor that finishes quite well on the palate, and easily an all-day smoke. If you're a red Virginia fan, it's awfully difficult not to like this blend.
