About This Pipe Tobacco
The third entry in master blender Greg Pease's Zeitgeist Collection, Horizons Flake is an approachable, contemporary, and medium-bodied English blend that's excellently balanced to provide a consistent and delightful all-day smoke. Comprising a mixture of matured Red Virginias, Flue-cured Virginias, Turkish Latakia, and Oriental leaf, all pressed and sliced into flakes, Horizons boasts a sophisticated flavor profile that admirably balances rich smokiness with a gentle sweetness and an enticing spice.
About the Zeitgeist Collection: The Zeitgeist Collection is a pipe tobacco series from Gregory Pease that pays tribute to the avant-garde and rebellious themes of the modern era. Each carefully formulated pipe tobacco in this series evokes the spirit of a particular location, time period, or cultural milieu. This mixture, Horizons Flake, is inspired by jet-age retrofuturism, drawing on ideals of a way forward guided by the design principles and style of the late 1940s and 50s: with these sleek and hopeful visions of the future displayed across the tin art.

The orientals do have a slight peppery spice, but this is somewhat subdued.
Overall I’m quite pleased by how creamy, sweet, and balanced this manages to be while also being a fuller smoke. I might have to keep it around in my rotation....Read More

What a flavorful smoke. Warming spices, stewed dark fruit, mesquite, and peated whiskey. Smokes cool with no bite unless you freight train it. Flakes are as beautiful as the tin art. Will be cellaring this heavily.
