SG Chocolate Flake
Wow! After discussion on another board I ordered some of this. What a great way to finish an Easter sermon! Smooooooooooth. It will be excellent when it dries out a bit.
No bite, a mild sweetness, and a cocoa-like taste on the tongue, very appealing aroma. I am in sensory delight. |

I think you'll like it Dave, I like it a lot. I've gone through half a tin and I'm thinking I'm gonna have to get some more!

SG Flakes in general are wonderful!

There is definitely some Latakia involved, though also some Orientals and of course the Virginia base. In general I do not enjoy Latakia blends. In fact, I have not smoked them for the last 15 years or so. But this is a nice smoke. At times the Latakia is barely noticeable, at other times it predominates. The other leaf is never overpowered, though, the way it sometimes is in English blends. I can smell the chocolate "topping" in the tin, but I can not taste it while I am smoking. This will not replace St. James Flake for me, but it certainly is enjoyable!
