Former: Cross Grain Flake 50g Pipe Tobacco

Product Number: 003-027-0002

Hans "Former" Nielsen began carving pipes in 1956 and has since become a legend of Danish pipe artistry with a worldwide following. In addition to his exquisite pipes, he's released his own line of pipe tobaccos — several of the blends fittingly named after briar's grain patterns.

A traditional, naturally sweet flake tobacco prepared with only the finest grade of Virginia leaf with a pinch of Perique, Former's Cross Grain Flake is aged to perfection in order to bring out the best in this cool smoking, magnificent flake.
