Ah, ok. So I guess it snakes around. That is interesting. I can't wrap my mind around how something like that gets drilled. ?

Can anyone compare this blend to GH&C Cherry Cream Flake?
Well, I don't have the most sophisticated palate, but I've smoked both in the past week so I'll give it a try.
CCF is VA forward, with more of a sour cherry flavor and a definite Lakeland/soapy presence. It reminded me of Gawith Brown Flake, only with cherry flavor.
With Sakura, you can taste the VA, but there is a strong presence from the Orientals, and the topping is much more floral/cherry blossom than straight cherry.
They're pretty different blends, and I think both are very good and worth having on hand.

I’m smoking Sakura right now. I’ve also tried Burley Morning Pipe, Robo Burlesque and Dark Fired Cherry. My impressions are positive. The blends are enjoyable, the shipping is fast and the packaging is fine. I’m becoming a fan.
