About This Pipe Tobacco

The main characteristics of Bob's Chocolate Flake come from the 8% Latakia included in the blend and the smooth chocolate aroma. Brazilian, Zimbabwe, and Malawi Virginia leaf make up 82% of the blend providing a mellow/medium smoke cooled with the addition of 8% Malawi sun cured and 2% Malawi Burley. The Latakia cools but also adds strength and aroma. The cocoa casings and chocolate top flavors are rounded off with vanilla and other flavors providing sweet notes in this very unique and popular blend from Gawith, Hoggarth & Co.

Cool Smoking & Indulgent

Product: Gawith Hoggarth & Co. Bob's Chocolate Flake Bulk
First of all, for the Philistines that think they're dunking on this blend by giving it one star because it has Lakeland essence -- of course it has Lakeland essence, it is GH&C. Let's get one thing strait: one star is for either a blend that is obviously comprised of lugs / grade C leaf only, or Captain Black Grape. Whether Lakeland is your cup of grog or not, GH&C leaf choice is unimpeachable. Don't believe me? Let it sit in a mason jar untouched for five years and come back to flakes absolutely coated in sugar crystals. Give this blend one star is like ripping a flier for guitar lessons off a telephone pole and shouting "I DON'T WANT GUITAR LESSONS!". That being said, I suppose everyone is entitled to their opinions, however malformed or misguided they may be. At least this isn't as bad as the people who review bomb Sun Bear because they don't understand how supply and demand works.

BCF is mechanically a great smoke, staying cool and burning slowly with proper pacing. Let it dry for 30-45 minutes before you pack it. It's a smoke best served as dessert. A slowly retrohale is the key to taking in all the flavors and aromas of this blend. I knocked off half a star for GH&C being a little inconsistent with the amount of chocolate topping they apply from batch to batch.

Utterly Unique

Product: Gawith Hoggarth & Co. Bob's Chocolate Flake Bulk
One of the most unique tobaccos currently being produced. An aromatic? Sure, sort of: but not an American-style one and also far less scented than G&H's other aromatic brands like Ennerdale. The natural scent that is applied here is not candy-like chocolate, but more like dark coco powder with 8% smoky latakia for contrast. The Malawi sun cured leaf also adds a sweet and rich cigar-like quality to produce an exquisitely tasty flake in the Old World tradition. There is a reason this tobacco is a cult favorite for discriminating pipe smokers everywhere....Read More
Not as the name implies

I’d like to start by saying this isn’t a bad blend at all and I will buy more because it is very unique but…. Given the name I was expecting a much more coco vanilla flavor, it’s very very very slight and not what I was expecting.
A perfect "Aro"

First off, I'm a newbie in this world but just recently got into the hobby and fell in love deeply with it. This is now one of my favorites and this should be a staple in any cellar. Sure, that "Lakleland" taste may not be for everyone, but WOW do I sure love it! This is one unique,tasty smoke!...Read More
