Sutliff: Crumble Kake English #1 1.5oz Pipe Tobacco

Product Number: 003-442-0056

Crumble Kake English #1 combines Latakia with Red Virginias, Burley, and Orientals for a well-rounded, classic English blend. The Virginias lend a slight, fruity sweetness to the Cyprian Latakia's cool and smoky, slightly leathery notes, and the subtle use of Burley and Turkish leaf deepens the overall flavor, providing body and nuance with hints of earth and nuts. It's a blend of good balance, marked by a touch of complexity, pressed into an easily rubbed out cake, making this an excellent choice for those seeking an all-day English smoke.

Product: Sutliff Crumble Kake English #1 1.5oz
Tin note of sweet smoky tangy fruit and musty vegetation. Tobacco is a Krumble Kake of marbled reddish brown, dark brown, black and a little tan. Moisture content is good, some pipe smokers will want to dry it out a bit. Burns slow with a few extra relights. The strength is medium and nic is mild. No flavoring detected. Taste is medium and mostly consistent, with notes of smoky, floral, herbal, incense, tangy dark fruit, spice, savory, fermented sour, leather, toast, lemon grassy, wood, nuts, earthy rich, cocoa, sugar sweet, a musty dry vegetation and citrus background note, and a peppery retro. Latakia is leading with Burley, Oriental/Turkish and Virginia supporting. Room note is tolerable, and aftertaste is great....Read More
Mild Good Blend

Product: Sutliff Crumble Kake English #1 1.5oz
Though this seems to be a very mild blends it is subtly complex light latakia the red virginias do shine. Perfect moisture out of the tin I wonder if some time may help this blend really come together.(Update) I admit was not impressed after the first flake was gone but....after that this blend got better after every bowl. Start to finish a great consistent flavor and mild English....Read More

Pretty good english. I’m almost through the tin and it took me a while but for me, it developed from a good but mediocre english Blend to one of my favorites. And I like the loose flake cut too. Very good!
Exceedingly Mellow English

Another win for Sutliff’s Crumble Kake label. On my first try I thought there was not nearly enough oriental leaf or latakia to call this blend a balkan, but whatever you call it this stuff is fantastic. It is one of the mellowest, smoothest, most soothing medium English blends I have ever had. The red virginias from Sutliff are always flavorful - hay, grass, bready, a bit raisiny. A very nice burley gives it structure and ensures a slow, cool burn. Choice latakia gives it definition. And just a bit of oriental leaf is sprinkled in as a zesty condiment. If you don’t taste the orientals right away, smoke more slowly and allow them to develop. SCK English #1 is best enjoyed right at the edge of extinguishment. Right at the edge of needing to relight is when it’s at its most flavorful. That’s where the harmony lives....Read More
NOT a Penzance and Not Really a Good English

Product: Sutliff Crumble Kake English #1 1.5oz
Can't believe I bought two tins of this... It's difficult to comprehend how someone could compare this to Penzance. From a linear perspective; it has Latakia, VA and Orientals... it's a loose flake...but similarities end there. The VA isn't nearly as remarkable or sweet as Penzance, and the Latakia in #1 is in noticeably stronger proportions than the former. Penzance places an emphasis on the sweetness of the VA, followed by an ever so slight and finessed verdant spice of Orientals, and lastly the Latakia is supportive and never overwhelming. Sure, the burley lends a little body to #1, and perhaps that's what's causing this to be so bland. A cinnamon roll without sugar is still a cinnamon roll, but that doesn't mean it's a GOOD cinnamon roll. #1 just falls short of many, many other English. It's bland, a bit cellulosic at times and not in the least bit sweet. Consider Pease's Westminster... now that's a sweet flavored English that if pressed into a flake could easily pass for Penzance. Want something even better than Westminster and you crave latakia? Star of the East Flake... that's the pinnacle. Sorry Sutliff... I'm not a fan of the flavor, but I do like the loose flake, so a 1/2 star for that. I'll bear down and finish the first tin, but the second will most likely collect dust for well over a decade. Nicotine is 1 out of 5....Read More

Unpleasant aroma

The Latakia method involves smoking with cedar and other woods. While I'm sure it is a fine blend for those liking this type, I found the cedar aroma and taste unpleasant
balanced and inviting

Sutliff has done a great job with this kake, and has brought me back into the English fold. The name of the game with this blend is balance. Each ingredient melds together to create a medium flavored , medium strength engliah that is fun to prepare and rewarding to smoke. . My favorite part of the bowl is the final third, when the virginia has had time to caramelize and give a dark, sweet, almost caramel like flavor to the creamy blend....Read More

This is my star gazing companion, lots of shifts and twists in taste and smells with tongue bursts that keep surprising you. Cake means no messing around and clean burn. A great English which should be better known
