English Flakes

[assaad]

Can anyone recommend a good English flake?

I know what Hobie1dog would say as well as others:
Esoterica Tobacciana Penzance

The Monty Python crew are pretty flaky

Gawith & Hoggarth Glengarry Flake. Along with Samuel Gawith Best Brown Flake. My two favorites.

When I can get it I really enjoy Best Brown Flake.

Thanks everyone! I think I will have to find some of that Penzance. Thanks for the link Lawrence, those reviews were helpful.

Mac Baren Latakia Blend is a good place to start, it's pretty mild for a Latakia blend. It's a "coin" flake, like PS Bullseye or Escudo and very easy to rub out.

Thanks for the recommendations, my next order will include some of these!

I have yet to try Erinmore...any comparisons for me? What's it like?

As Erinmore Flake is Virginia and Burley, I don't think it qualifies as "English".

Erinore Flake is similar to Dunhill Light Flake with burley and a bit more casing. I love both tobaccos.
