Can you correctly guess all 4 of these flakes? I took all the pictures with an iPhone, same lighting, and no editing (other than cropping). I was thinking this would be fun to do just for education and bragging rights, but if I'm allowed to I'll mail an average pipe-full sample of each tobacco to the first person who gets all 4 correct. I'll only mail to the CONUS; however, If you're outside the CONUS, I'll gladly mail them to one of your friends in the CONUS :)

To keep it moving, I will post how many guesses are correct per guesser.

I LOVE this! such a cool and unique idea. Of course I haven’t a freaking clue, but I know there are tobacco guys here that can and will nail this puzzle.

So far there are no more correct guesses. That said, there are a couple really close guesses. Tomorrow morning I will post 1 more picture of each. I will do my best to capture the best representation of each flake. I will also put a quarter in each shot to help with sizing.
