Tobacco Similar to Gawith Hoggarth Rum Flake

[rdoss16]

So i recently got my hands on some GH rum flake and im in love. My favorite blend to date. Can anyone recommend some blends that are similar? I know theres plenty of rum topped blends out there but thats not really what im looking for. I never really tasted much of the rum on this flake Anyways. Thanks in advance for any recommendations you have!

I’m not sure there’s anything quite like GH flakes, TBH. They occupy a spot with few if any contenders.

Lots of really good high quality flakes out there, don’t get me wrong. To my palate the GH style is just unique.

I've enjoyed quite a bit of rum flake over the years and honestly haven't come across anything similar.

Peterson Hyde Park is really, really close in taste, but is a broken flake with a bit more burley. It’s even made by Gawith Hoggarth for Peterson. A year or so ago when there was a dry up of Rum Flake, I discovered Hyde Park, and it scratched the Rum Flake itch.

I will second ,Peterson Hyde Park, a tad more burleys there and perhaps somewhat stronger in nicotine dept,otherwise I've found it being very close match to G&H Rum flake.

You can try GH Ennerdale Flake.
It's not really similar, but it has the strong Lakeland flavor that is in Rum Flake.

Rum seems to attract premium blenders who do good work. I can't think of a rum aromatic I've smoked that I didn't enjoy, not as a match but in itself.
