Samuel Gawith: Fire Dance Flake 250g Pipe Tobacco

Product Number: 003-059-0043

FireDance is Samuel Gawith's Best Brown 6" Flake subtly flavored with a combination of Blackberry, Brandy, and Vanilla. The smoke is a mellow, cool experience with the Blackberry the predominant flavor, the Brandy in the background and rounded off with the Vanilla. A smooth and fruity smoke with the strength of Best Brown and a very pleasing room aroma.

Nice flake great flavor

This is a thick quality flake with an amazing tin note. The berry topping poems through in a very natural way that's just right. Leave it out for around 30 mins though or you will have a tough time keeping it lit. Once you get it charred and going it requires very little relights, and has an amazing flavor. The berry really shines at the top of the bowl then mellows out a bit, that's the vanilla comes through. By the bottom of the bowl I had a very subtle flavor of blackberries on vanilla ice cream....Read More

Best Brown, but improved... if that's possible

I wasn't sure what I was getting myself into with this. Cracked the tin, the note was amazing. My friend said his mouth started watering. The smoke is no less significant. They balanced all the components perfectly and this could become an all day smoker quite easily.

A Great Aromatic!

One of the best aromatics made. The flavor of blackberries and brandy come through with no problem. The flavors sit on quality tobacco which you can taste as well.

10+ Years Of FireDance
April 15, 2017
By: RWiggins
Product: Samuel Gawith Fire Dance Flake 250g
I have smoked this product consistently for over 10 years. A conservative estimate in pounds would be 20+. A couple years back this product was not being manufactured or held up in export red tape, I forget exactly which. My last order, 5/250g boxes, the tobacco was so moist it was mildewed upon arrival. Rather than contact my pals at Smoking Pipes, I culled the mildewed tobacco and smoked on. I have enjoyed this bran for so long, I'm going to give it one more try and order enough 250g to free load on UPS....Read More

Rebel flake
July 10, 2016
By: Ayax g.
Product: Samuel Gawith Fire Dance Flake 50g
This is an ambivalent kind of smoke. At times it is rather pleasant, thats when it develops its quality character, a mild strength with low nic, smooth body and mild taste which is vaguely fermented with mild notes of vanilla and a distant background of lakeland, at times the apparition of roasted honey in a bbq and liquor too. Good after taste and not overcased respecting the English aromatic tradition.

But then when you start considering to buy another tin it does transform into something rather monotonous and even insipid, so it kind of seem to hide its flavour palette. In the end it is hard to make it a favourite, at least for me.

It is best consumed after getting it dry leaving just a mild oily humidity to reach its top....Read More

Follow-up review from 2014

Product: Samuel Gawith Fire Dance Flake 50g
I have smoked two tins of this blend from the years 2010 to 2013. Those two tins were absolutely wonderful. However, my thrid tin purchased in 2015 was not the same. The tin aroma was there, but the taste had totally changed and was not present. The style of flake is completely different also. The first two tins were each one massive strip/flake of soft, leathery tobacco. The third tin consisted of nice looking perfectly rectangular flakes. They were too thick. Whatever Sam Gawith did to this blend ruined it. I would not recommend this blend now. Oh please go back to the way it was made because it was a delicious, quality aromatic unlike typical aromatics. I used to be able to sit back, read a book and sip this blend in my dedicated Boswell bridge pipe...the good ole days. Just wanted to update my 5 star review as that rating has changed. :(...Read More

A full flavored tobacco.

Product: Samuel Gawith Fire Dance Flake 50g
This is the first flake tobacco I've tried. I highly recommend it, especially if you're into aromatics. It has a very pleasant room note, and it smokes well. The 1st time I tired it, I had to light it only once and it stayed lit all the way through the bowl. Also unlike some of the other reviewers I got the taste of the toppings all the way through the bowl....Read More

Smooth, But....

Smooth, burned well, and very mild. But, like the previous reviewer's experience, the flavors just didn't come through. The tin note was pleasant enough, but I got almost none of that once it was lit.
