Tavern Tobacco Co. McCraigan's Flake
(2.80)
Lord MacCraigan was visiting London on business and wandered into a cozy looking pub for a wee dram. He quickly fell in love with the house tobacco, an exquisite English flake. When the owner of the pub refused to give Lord MacCraigan the recipe for the flake so MacCraigan's local Highlands tobacconist could replicate it, old Haimish did what any self respecting Scots Lord would do: he bought the pub lock, stock and tobacco recipe. One puff and we know you'll agree it was a bargain at any price! An exquisite hand blended Virginia/Latakia flake,smooth enough for all day smoking.

NEWMAN says it all, if you like flakes and Latakia then this is for you. I thought, quite simply...it's ok. Not great. Just ok. Needs to be dried alot. Much as Black Beards Queen Anns Revenge. Perhaps it was just my state of mind at the time. I wanted to love it...I tried to love it........I didn't love it. It's just ok. 2 1/2 out of 4 stars
