This blend is just as advertised, a mild flake. Although it's not easy to find in the US, the result is worth the effort and cost. I wanted to determine if this Charatan blend was of as high a quality as their pipes that are one of my favorites. This blend has beautifully formed flakes ~ 3"x1"x1/16" comprised of darker browns with some golden birdseye intermixed. The ideal moisture content allows the flakes to remain pliable and permits packing by simply folding as I prefer. A sweet, fruity tin aroma carries thru to the taste that is quite uniform throughout the smoke. For my packing technique, this blend was rather easy to light and keep lit and resulted in a long, cool smoke. If I again find some tins of this flake, I'll certainly pruchase them. If you enjoy Va flakes, you should do the same.
