Brown Sugar Flake is a Samuel Gawith/Danish Pipe Shop collaboration, the goal of which was to create a fuller-bodied ode to the old Orlik Brown Sliced. High quality Virginia is hot pressed with natural cavendish to create a pure flavor with just a hint of natural sweetness from the cavendish. Then to spice it up just a bit, a pinch of Burley and Oriental is added.
