Samuel Gawith Full Virginia Flake 50g

The hot-pressing gives these flakes a deep, almost savory sweetness that’s richer than any other Virginia I’ve tried. It burns slow and cool in my cob, providing a solid half-hour session from just one flake.

The dark flakes rub out perfectly and burn slow and cool in the bowl, with that signature bold Virginia sweetness that keeps me coming back. A tin note of rich, earthy fruit is exactly what I hoped for.

The hot-pressing really deepens the flavor—each bowl gives a bold, satisfying smoke without any harshness. I've been reaching for this flake every evening since it arrived.
