Samuel Gawith St. James’ Flake Pipe Tobacco 25g – Loose

Samuel Gawith St. James’ Flake is a traditional Virginia-Perique blend that delivers a rich and full-bodied smoking experience. Made from high-quality, naturally sweet Virginias and bold Perique, this flake-cut tobacco offers a deep, complex profile that develops beautifully throughout the smoke. The Virginias provide a rich base of natural sweetness with notes of hay, citrus, and dark fruits, while the Perique adds a layer of spiciness, earthy depth, and a hint of fermented fruit.

When smoked, St. James’ Flake burns slowly and evenly, producing a thick, creamy smoke with a refined balance of sweetness and spice. The natural fermentation of the Perique brings a tangy and slightly peppery sensation to the retrohale, while the Virginias mellow out the blend with their smooth and slightly bready characteristics. The result is a complex and rewarding smoke that is both satisfying and nuanced, making it a favorite among Virginia-Perique lovers.

This tobacco is best enjoyed when properly dried before smoking, as the flakes come slightly moist out of the tin. Its medium to full strength and rich flavor profile make it an excellent choice for experienced smokers who appreciate a well-aged and naturally fermented tobacco blend. St. James’ Flake is a timeless and elegant choice for those who enjoy depth, complexity, and a slow, satisfying smoke.
