St Bruno Flake Pipe Tobacco 50g Pouch

Date Added: Sunday 31 January, 2021 by Craig

A proper old school pipe tobacco. Having tried most of the old Dunhill range and various Kendal loose selections, I decided to try an old well-known brand. The strange off-putting smell when you first open it comes from the traditional vinegar they use as a natural preservative. I let the flakes breathe for half an hour before transferring to a small jar. Two whole flakes is almost perfect for my slightly larger than normal Rattray, a little less in my Peterson. It certainly has a unique flavour and packs a punch of nicotine. Its a proper, reasonably cool burning, tobacco tasting tobacco. Just be sure to let it air out the unpleasant vinegary aroma before you attempt this one!
