McClelland No. 2010 Classic Virginia

Good stuff. Thick, chunky flakes of slightly sweet Virginia goodness. Would recommend.

2010 Classic Virginia is a great smoke. I enjoy a flavorful, naturally sweet, non aromatic tobacco, and 2010 definitely fills the bill. One of my top two all time favorites.

one of my all time go too tobaccos. Look no farther for a long burn and great flavor.

2010 is the best Virginia (only Virginia) tobacco. It's hearty and tasty; not too light and not too heavy. My usual blend is Mc's Oriental #1 and I smoke this as a break from oriental "spice".

Flavor and aroma were okay, but very hard to keep lit. Not worth the hassle, will not purchase again.

Easy shopping, amazing selection, great descriptions and pictures of everything. I've been buying from Pipes and Cigars for years and have no complaints.

I trust and love McClelland's bulk flakes. They are always enjoyable and their #2015 is always in one one of my jars. I tried #2010 as a possible alternative to an Orlik GS or Erinmore flake and enjoyed it. It won't make my regular rotation, but it's yet another solid, clean Virginia flake from them. As others have said, you should rub it out to get the best burn from it. It ships in broken flake form already, which is convenient for that, and I had bad luck trying to fold-and-stuff the few intact flakes I got. Taste-wise it needs to be sipped to avoid its getting too hot. If you are patient, you'll get a long-burning grassy-tart companion. I'll definitely circle back to this one.

This is a very nice, high-quality, straight Virginia tobacco blend. It has all the McClelleand signature style and quality -- tangy, slightly sweet, earthy, etc. I think it smokes great right away, but it seriously improves with some aging.

This tobacco embodies everything one would expect from a VA. For it's price, you would be crazy to not cellar at least a few ounces to enjoy in five years and beyond. But it's also an excellent smoke right out of the bulk bag (give or take a couple of days for drying). It's easy to rub out and is a great tobacco to bring out for the novice pipe smoker who needs to be weaned off of the heavily cased aromatics.

First-rate, light Virginia. Easy to rub out

ordered it out of curiosity.usually smoke vapers-liked clean taste.will order again

I have smoked several pounds of this tobacco the last couple of years. A few months ago I found some McClelland 5115 Old World Classic Cake that I jarred up several years ago in my cellar. The 5115 is a little too zesty by itself for me, but, wanting to use it up I mixed it 3/parts 2010 with 1/part 5115. The 2010 mellows out the 5115 and the 5115 gives the 2010 a little boost in flavor. This has been my go to smoke for the last several months now and gives me a nice full virginia smoke. mel

I you like a good Virginia, you will love the McClelland 2010. You do have to rub it out.

My first order was shipped quick and everything was as expected. Great service!

found this a couple of years ago. while it's not my favorite VA it's in the top five. it's in my rotation for good I'm sure.
