About This Pipe Tobacco

A slightly sweet 100% Virginia tobacco, Gawith, Hoggarth & Co's Scotch Flake is a combination of flue-cured Virginias from Brazil and Zimbabwe, augmented with a smaller amount of sun-cured to add sweetness and body. Similar in content to Broken Scotch Cake its darker appearance is a result of it being pressed prior to slicing into flakes.

Quite good.

Sweet Virginia with only a tiny touch of Turkish for effect. Flavors of mild cocoa and delicious Virginia tobaccos. The Turkish nudges the cocoa along and makes for a really fine taste.

A pleasant enough smoke that is very mellow and semisweet. For me, however, it felt one dimensional and lacked the depth I desire. You get hints of Lakeland and some grassy hay-like qualities from the various VAs. It burns rather cool and slow and it best when dried a tad.
awesome!

Package note of chocolate, flowers and mild hay. Tobacco Flakes are a marbled brown, dark brown and black. Moisture content is Good to Go (a bit dry for GH&C), rubs out with a little effort. Burns slow with few relights once lit. The strength is mild to medium and nic is mild. Flavoring is mild, with notes of very mild chocolate and Lakeland. The chocolate comes in and out sporadically. Taste is medium and somewhat consistent, a little strong in the first half, but mellows in the second half. Tasting notes of wood, spice, bread, earth, floral, hay, mildly spicy, mild tangy citrus, lemon zest, ripe fruit, a sweet grassy background note, and a peppery retro. Virginias are leading with 1/2 the flavoring supporting. Room note is pleasant to tolerable, and aftertaste is great....Read More
Same as Curt's Review: Mild Sweetness, Grassy, Bran, Sweet-tea... No Bite

Reminds me of Gawith Bothy Flake. "Mild sweetness between grassy and bran notes, sometimes like sweet-tea. There is no bite."

This became an instant favorite of mine. Mild sweetness between grassy and bran notes, sometimes like sweet-tea. There is no bite. It's great.
