Brown Clunee:
February 19, 2015
Product: Rattray's Brown Clunee 100g
This is a smooth, somewhat less than sharp Va. with a dark sweetness. There is little if any citrus flavor although it does have a low-level tartness that keeps the salivary glands perked-up throughout the smoke. It plays well against the hops-like g... Read More
rassiness of the sweet Va. As the bowl progresses a brut prune flavor grows in prominence. Eventually the flavor takes on a woody character – sort of an interesting development since the initial flavors seem to hold their own while the slow-to-develop prune and woody flavors add their voices to the chorus.

My standard smoke

Product: Rattray's Brown Clunee 100g
A well balanced blend that changes from sweet to spicy as you search for that fine grey ash at the bottom.

This is what I was smoking for a week while trying to find my "all-day" blend. Well guess what?! Found it. Right in front of me the whole time. Not complex, not too strong..just right.
Mild and mellow,

Mostly Flue cured Virginia leaf. The burley and dark fired are quite minimal, even to the point that they are barely noticeable.
All ingredients make for a mild delight with just the right flavor.
Simply scrumptious.
Tangy, lemon

Since dark star is not obtainable, this is lightly stoved with a somewhat similar tangy ness. To me it’s lemon like and I use it with tea.

Not as excited about this as Old Gowrie, but it's still a solid smoke. I've been buying a tin or two Everytime it's available. Satisfies Everytime I smoke it.

".I like it.Can't really detect any perique since my pallet has been squashed from smoking 30%+ perique blends.I will bounce back and forth between this and the stronger va/perique blends.Produces a whitish/gray ash.I am smoking this in a large,thick (5/8")walled dublin.Worth a try,my smokers.You judge for yourselves.

Wonderful, but a little sweet.

Product: Rattray's Brown Clunee 100g
Sweeter than Old Gowrie, but not as full bodied, of course. Soft on the palate (but I smoke with 9mm filters).
This blend, Old Gowrie and Hal O' the Wynd are my virginia blends. All year. I've left everything else behind and stopped looking for alt... Read More

Product: Rattray's Brown Clunee 100g
Tin note of dried Rasins, spices, and ripe plums. Tobacco is dark brown, brown and tan Broken Flake. Moisture content is ok, some may need to dry it a bit. Large pieces may also need to be rubbed out. Burns slow with few relights. The strength is mil... Read More
d to medium and nic is mild. No flavoring detected. Taste is mild to medium and mostly consistent, with notes of toasted bread, Rasin, wood, spice, nuts, leather, dry hay, rich earth, floral, mildly acidic, mildly spicy, citrus, creamy, herbal, orange peel/zest, tangy savory, a fermented slightly sour vegetation background note, and a very peppery retro. Virginia is leading with Kentucky and Perique supporting. Room note is pleasant, and aftertaste is great. Read Less
Strong, Satisfying Blend
February 08, 2021
Product: Rattray's Brown Clunee 100g
Delicious Virginia and Burley mixture with the Perique showing off its fermented quality without being peppery.This is noticeable first in the tin note (which has hints of beer) and then though the tart tanginess it adds to the earthy burley and swee... Read More
t Virginias that taste a bit like dates. Strong in both flavor and nicotine while still a super smooth smoke, it's great with a cup of black coffee to get going in the morning. Read Less
Nice But Not Enough
November 08, 2014
Product: Rattray's Brown Clunee 100g
Something about this one tells me that I need to go back to it and age it for a while. Just not near as enjoyable as Orlik or Best Brown or Modern Virgina; perhaps a little too much like a cigarette for my liking. I will say that it is a smooth smo... Read More
ke but it really ends there. I am in no hurry to attempt the aging thing. Read Less
