Description Thankfully Golden Virginia is one of the tobacco's that Imperial Tobacco have kept faithful to as it is still produced in the UK and the blend does not seem to have suffered to mass manufacturing or cost cutting. It is a little too strong for a good number of smokers but any smoker that does smoke it won't smoke anything else and it is the number one selling hand rolling tobacco in the UK. The golden Virginia Original is produced from fine cut Virginia Burley and some Oriental leaves for added character.
