Absolutely stunning blend...perfection in a bowl..peppery...sweet...tangy...Wonderful blend
By far one of the best blends I have had from WCTC! This has been added to my weekly, sometimes daily rotation. So glad this comes back again in April.
While I’m no expert tobacco reviewer, I am thoroughly enjoying this blend. Beautiful leaf, citrusy tart tin note, and a nice pepper note on the retrohale. Glad I grabbed this blend and look forward to getting some age on it. Smokes cool to a fine ash and, to me, is just shy of medium in the vitamin N department.
I love this stuff! Main notes of citrus, raisin, and sour/spice. Lower notes of hay and grass with a Virginia sweetness. Sweet, sour, spicy. Very tasty.
I had never smoked a Watch City blend, but have always heard good things. When I received the notification that Rouxgaroux was coming I decided to try it so I set an alarm. Luckily I was early enough to get in but only bought 2oz because I knew nothing about it. Well, it is now my favorite blend. Complex, weaving different flavors in and out but with some of the sweetest Virginia I've ever tasted. Next time around it'll be a pound. For now the little bit I have will be for special occasions only
Greatful to Ernie for sending me a sample. Boston nice! Wonderful blend from a master blender. Hard to describe. Strong. Flavorful. Different. Best smoked slowly and gently to appreciate all the flavors coming through. I’m going to let it age over the winter so I have something to look forward to in the spring.
One of the ones I keep stocked up on! No wonder they sale out fast.
This is the first time I've ordered Rouxgaroux and I'm glad I did. If you want great pipe tobacco, you can't go wrong here just read the reviews!
Absolutely what I expected. Very smooth and enjoyable Perique blend. I am not the biggest fan of Perique but this along with Flake 558 are masterpieces. I only smoke Perique blends from Watch City...period.
Rouxgaroux is another excellent blend from watch city! From the start the bag note is a wonderful aroma of tangy fig like dark fruit. It's overall presentation is a very nice selection of deep colors of ribbon cut tobacco. The character of this blend is a soft,tangy and sweet taste with a incense like room note. Sip at this one and the flavors come out! Very special blend I can see why it sold out so fast!
