In their own words:

A mild flake blended from the finest Burley tobaccos with added ripe Virginia’s and Cavendish. Navy Flake is light burning, making the lighting of the pipe very easy.

I picked up a tin of this the other day when buying a new pipe. Just finished my first bowl.

This was my first experience with a flake cut tobacco. It's a bit of a pain to brake it up, but it wasn't too bad.

Navy flake is a straight-forward tobacco, with a mild-medium body. Decent enough strength however. Nothing in particular stuck out in the flavor; it was just a well-balanced, good tasting smoke. Not one of the latakia addicts, but I liked it.

The burn was phenomanal. It never got too hot and I only had to relight twice. That's damn good for me.

It's fairly pricey. The 50g tin I purchased at a local shop was $10.95.
