Skipper’s Flake is essentially comprised of bright Virginia with minimal casing which is only obvious in the tin note. It is rather smooth with medium strength and typical bright Virginia aromas like hay with a few grassy and citrus notes and even a suspicion of honey. It has a natural taste and to me it belongs to genre of straight Virginias very reminiscent of Samuel Gawith’s Golden Glow, C&D’s Opening Night and G.L. Pease’s Union Square. It is quite good on its own, especially as a first smoke in the morning, but it also lends itself to mixtures especially with oriental tobaccos. It’s similar also to Orlik’s Golden Slices, and I have to say that I prefer Skipper’s Flake to it.

Nice smelling tobacco, very tea like . The flakes separate and pack quite easily and the moisture level was good enough to smoke right away.
The flavors are very diverse, citrus, hay, dry figs and some brioche accompany the smoker in that order, as the bowl burns down, it leaves a pleasant aftertaste also. A slow burning Virginia flake that could bite an inexperienced tongue especially if smoked fast. A new favorite of mine.
