Hi there, I was wondering if anyone could give me a recommendation on a good aromatic flake tobacco. I like to smoke Gawith & Hoggarth aromatics (e.g. Exclusiv Black Cherry) when out in public, ideally anything with a nice room note/aroma to the smoke. I heard someone describe those blends as "wife friendly" once, which isn't far off what I'm looking for.
My favourite flakes are mostly technically "Aromatics" anyway, albeit Lakelands or older fashioned British and Irish blends- Erinmore Flake, St. Bruno Flake, Condor Long Cut, I even had someone (a cigarette smoker) remark my Ogden's Walnut Flake (my all-time favourite) smelled really nice even though it isn't an aromatic. I also love Ennerdale and 1792 flake and Conniston Cut Plug but they may not be so liked by the public. I just think flakes work so well for smoking when out-and-about as they seem to burn slowly in a light breeze and can be easily carried around, in my case usually a handkerchief.
I was tempted by Mac Baren's vanilla cream flake as that seemed to be quite good quality, but I have never tried it or done a test on non-smokers to see what they think of the aroma. It's difficult because most aromatics I would consider sweet e.g. Danish cavendish blends with vanilla or cherry flavourings often come as ready rubbed pouches. Can anyone help me with finding a decent flake that smells pleasant to non-smokers? Many thanks
