great flake

first but settles in well once fully lit.
Flavor is dark and meaty with the topping smoothing any sharp edges while not changing the flavor much. Sort of a floral lift that cleans the palate at the end of a draw.
My order was for bulk and I wonder if that tamed the topping more.
Overall, the flake reminds me of a couple of other blends and is a good example of this style of flake with a welcome smoothness.
Recommend to all Enthusiasts and newcomers ready to try something substantial and tasty.
Update::::::
Judge this blend as a workingsman blend or as a companion to a day’s journey than is still enjoyable noon to night...Read More

bout it, but I much prefer Ennerdale or Conniston if I'm in the mood for a Lakeland, or Capstan for a Virginia. Didn't find any of the almond described in other reviews- maybe slightly marzipan?...Read More

onsistent throughout with notes of floral, sweet almond, light vanilla and a mild Lakeland. Taste is medium with notes of earth, mild sweet grass, floral and mildly spicy. Virginias leads with flavoring supporting and the Indian leaf in the background. Room note is nice, and aftertaste was great....Read More

I think it's the best in the line. A fine sweet and strong blend. I don't detect a lot of Lakeland in this batch but have in other orders, in any case I love the blend either way.

A firm-flavored Va/Bur with Lakeland essence as a secondary detail. Sharp Virginia paired with a smooth, creamy Burley. Lakeland tastes are lighter than expected, but present. A great blend if Ennerdale is too much for your palate.

the tobaccos. It's a mixture of some relatively strong tobaccos, but, to me, it never really overpowers in Vitamin N. This one, to my taste, seems to have more of the floral scents than the others and less of the vanilla/licorice/tonquin flavors of, say, Ennerdale(which I also like). Personally, I refer GH to SG when it comes to tobaccos. SG tobaccos always come too wet to smoke and they really have seemed to be mediocre experiences. But I digress.
I don't know if this could classify as an all-day tobacco, as it is definitely a bit over-the-top. However, I have to stop myself from smoking this instead of other blends that I have. An impressive flake tobacco, in my opinion....Read More
Aged for taste

n't as much topping flavor as fresh, but the natural sweetness of the Virginias had really increased. Once I was into 2/3 of the bowl it was smooth and sweet. Not the slightest bite no matter how hard the puffs. The smoke was creamy and full. I don't think anymore time would make any more changes to the leaf. I'd say it at the tipping point for the tobacco and needs to be smoked to get the full enjoyment. The Ennerdale I have of the same age still has the aroma of the topping....Read More

s a lot of different flavors working together to make this one an aw inspiring smoke. I cut it with sharp scissors into .25 inch pieces I smoked it steady for 30 min. before relighting. In my mind this is a classic English Lakeland flake that I would highly recommend, Nic -Hit medium, nice room note. A true English Classic! Also thanks Kaz W. for recommending it to me. I like to smoke this one in the afternoon or evening....Read More
