Fine Scottish Tobacco

Product: Rattray's Old Gowrie 50g
I didn't like this one when I first tried it, so I cellared my 500g in a mason jar. Spin ahead 4 years, opened it up and discovered Scottish Gold. Note of plums smokes like a million, a little wet dried it out some, burns well to snow white ash, high... Read More
volume of smoke, room note is tolerable Nic-Hit medium, not an all day smoke but is repeatable during my smoking day. Highly recommended to all but a new piper!! Read Less

新草打开，简单醒草以后装填，一斗到底。燃烧性非常好，烟气量大，烫舌的感觉并不明显，小口过鼻非常过瘾，中段开始有奶香，甜度很明显，但并不唐突。可以感受到基草非常优质，没有杂气的干扰！非常棒！！

The more I smoke of this the more I love it. 16 bucks for 100 grams. That isn’t cheap gas station pipe tobacco prices but for a quality blend that seems a very fair price. This should give almost anyone the ability to buy a can or two. This is my fir... Read More
st experience with a Rattray’s blend. Amazingly cool and flavorful. Very clean on the palate. Definitely a lighter blend than I usually smoke. I actually enjoyed this because of the lighter smoking. I realized after smoking this how flavorful and satisfying a lighter blend can be. All I have smoked for years is full flavored blends with pretty good strength. Bottom of the bowl will have you craving another one because of how clean and refreshing it is. No thick oils or tar covering my mouth after the pipe. No bite. A broken flake that burns as well as a shag cut. It never ceases to amaze me what a fine blending house can do with two or three tobacco’s (this is made by Kolhase and Kopp in Germany for Rattrays). Comes somewhat moist in can. Lovely grassy, lemon scent from can with the characteristic raisin smell of Virginia blends). Dried for 15 minutes. After the charring light pipe stays lit until bottom of bowl. Bought 100 gram can (now wishing I had gotten 500 grams). Going to be my after work pipe daily until it is gone. If you love this tobacco and cannot get it in stock you may love Blairgowrie by Druquer & Sons (Blairgowrie is a little bit more stout and contains some Latakia). I could see pretty much any pipe smoker enjoying this blend. Will be purchasing more Rattray’s blends in the future. Read Less

This is a blend at the top of its genre. Not many can match it. Needs to be dried out before smoking.
Excellent

I love this one a very enjoyable smoke - beautiful broken flake. On the retrohale i get a spicy taste that reminds me of Christmas. It has a deep robust taste that I love. A repeat buy for me.
Love it!

I love this one, nice smooth flavorful smoke. The only problem, it so hard to get more here in the states. If you find it, definitely pick it up.

Great smoke! Every time I open a tin after not smoking this for a while, it just floors me how good it is. Good backbone, but mild enough to enjoy often. Rattray's Brown Clunee and HOTW also get top honors in my cellar.

Este es un tabaco que huele delicioso. Simplemente dan ganas de masticarlo. A la hora de fumar, hay que tratarlo cuidadosamente porque tiende a quemar un poco. ¡Delicioso!

This blend is an excellent, mild Virginia. Very pleasant an well behaved in the pipe. There is no bite and a faint sweet taste. There is also a cedar taste that weaves in and out. Those who are used to stronger mixtures may find the taste too faint, ... Read More
however. Even so it is well worth the price of admission and I believe that this would do well with aging. Read Less

This is my first Rattray's blend. First, I was pleasantly surprised by the beautiful presentation of the tobacco, and the delicate aroma in the tin. As I smoked it, the first thing I noticed is the almost total absence of toppings, which is a must fo... Read More
r me. Next, it took a while for the taste of this blend to shine, yet I was patient. As the bowl progressed, the taste profile was properly presented. It has a wonderfully rather sweet taste of roasted nuts, baked bread, and other delightful things alike. The taste remained throughout the bowl, with no added complexity, yet quite pleasing. The nicotine level was rather mild, which is not something I prefer. More so, there was a general lack of "oomph" to the blend. This would have been a fantastic top blend had it been "amplified" in terms of strength as the bowl progressed. I wanted that. I waited for that. I intently smoked hoping for that, but it never came. It remained mild, only hinting at what could have been. As such, although it has a truly delightful taste, it is just too weak for an experienced smoker like myself, who prefer much stronger Burley based blends. Read Less

Great ready rubbed cut. I have rubbed out and just packed as is, both methods provide good smokes. Slow puffing is most important or it can bite a bit. Smooth and spicy. Great smoke.
Love it

I love this blend, I picked up a tin on a blind buy and it smokes really well. Reminds me of cabbies mixture. Definitely worth a look.

A classic old Scottish Virgina Blend
November 27, 2014
Product: Rattray's Old Gowrie 100g
It's misleading to call this a "VA/Per". It's really a straight and matured virginia blend. The perique in this must be very minimal because it is barely noticeable, if at all.
This is a really old blend and a very rich classic virginia in the ... Read More

Made with the best Virginias, known for its relaxing properties. I confirm: anxious, it calms me down and prepares my tongue for the Blue Note (but I'll try the Nightcap, and very soon I'll receive CAO Moontrance, before tasting Samuel Gawith's Fired... Read More
ance's Flake and its Celtic Talisman).
Moreover, the blend is so well prepared that it doesn't need added aromas, the Virginia's Choice is so good!
So you can smoke all the day long, if you can't offer you an humidor very rich.
Buy it undr the bulk format: it will cost a little, and you could enjoy it alone or with friends.

to me , and I tell ya it ages well! But , fresh is awesome too, so dont think its like some Va's that "need" aging to get better. Old Gowrie , is Excellent no matter how old it is. Great Va's, and not too strong on the Perique. Just about as perfect as a Va-per can be , in my opinion. Read Less
