Sampling some Wilke Lizzie Blood Red Virginia, an orange topped vaper. Its nice. Bright and tart lemon/orange. Perique seems to just be a support. Seems young and in need of age. My guess is tobaccos are sourced from sutliff.

One of these days I will get some of this to try out, it always drew my eye the most when I have looked at Wilke’s tobacco list.

Every-time I see the title of the thread I think of Lizzie Borden with blood spray across her face.
By design, I suppose.

Everytime I see this pop up I think to myself "I really want to try this one." But I never do.

I didn't really care for this one. I guess I was expecting more of a light aro.

I have about 2oz sitting on the shelf from an order last year. It has been my least favorite of the Wilke blends I have tried. I found it quite bitter with a tendency to bite. I have been trying to give it time to age and see if it mellows. I should set some out to dry a it and give it another go, as it has been a year.

Fall River, MA, where speculation continues to this day, though she was never convicted. She probably preferred the ladies, which made the whole thing scandalous. It keeps the tourists coming.
