Rattray's Red Rapparee 50g

Rattray's Red Rapparee Pipe Tobacco (50g)

The blend that put Rattray's on the map, Red Rapparee has been a cornerstone of the Scottish pipe tobacco tradition since Charles Rattray first opened his shop in Perth in 1903. A lighter, more approachable companion to the darker Black Mallory, Red Rapparee leads with bright and red Virginias supported by a measured amount of Latakia and Oriental leaf, delivering a smoke that's genuinely complex without ever tipping into heavy territory. It's the kind of blend that works morning, afternoon, or evening without demanding anything of the smoker except time and a good pipe.

The ribbon cut is easy to pack and burns cool and even throughout the bowl, with evolving notes of natural Virginia sweetness, gentle earthiness, a hint of campfire smokiness, and a pleasantly spiced finish from the Orientals. For anyone exploring Scottish blends for the first time, Red Rapparee is the natural starting point.
