Watch City's "Roanoke" is a "Crumble Flake" based of naturally sweet yellow and bright Virginia tobaccos, we add our own house-stoved red Virginia and a measure of Turkish leaf. For those of you who like a natural tasting tobacco, this is as close as it gets! This is a limited run so grab it while you can. It'll be gone before you can say "Croatoan".

The sweet yellow and bright Virginias provide quite a lot of citrus (a little tart and fairly tangy) with some grass, a little earth, a couple drops of honey, and a hint of spice. The stoved red Virginia offers some tangy dark fruit, a small measure of sugar and bread, and a bit of earth and wood as a supporting player. The dry, floral, woody, earthy, mildly sour, slightly buttery sweet Turkish also has a couple pinches of spice as this varietal adds a little body and depth. The strength is in the center of mild to medium, while the taste is a step or so below the medium threshold. The nic-hit is a rung below the strength level. Won’t bite or get harsh. Burns cool, clean, and little slow as crumble makes will do. The flavor is very consistent with some sweetness and a touch of savoriness that translates to the short lived after taste. Leaves little dampness in the bowl, and needs some relights. Can be an all day smoke.
