April 2015 Tobacco of the Month Nominations

[Chris0673]

Ok boys and girls! It's time to grab your thinking caps, fire up your favorite pipe, and think about nominations for April's Tobacco of the Month! Since April is the first full month of Spring, what kind of tobacco do you like to smoke when it's finally warm enough to enjoy smoking outside? What do you like to bring Spring in with?

Here are March's runners up.

SG Kendal Cream Flake - This selection of blended Burley and Virginias offers a mild and creamy smoke from a medium density flake. With an added essence, the pipe smoker who derives pleasure from an easy to rub out flake will certainly enjoy Kendal Cream Flake.

Prince Albert - Crimp-cut, mild smoking mixture. Made in the USA.
Notes: Pipe Tobacco Hall of Fame Inductee. The Prince Albert Blends were introduced by R.J Reynolds in 1907. R.J. Reynolds sold the brand to the John Middleton Tobacco Company, Limerick, PA, in 1987, who has been producing it ever since.

St. James Flake - Genuine Perique is added to an already delicious and flavoursome blend of fine bright Virginias to give St. James the light peppery characteristic enjoyed by so many pipe smokers. Medium strength.

McClelland Blackwoods Flake - The characteristic, natural sweetness of mellow, Red Virginias mingles inextricably with the richness and inherently spicy aroma of Black Stoved Virginias in this doubly aged red and black all-Virginia cake mixture. An artistic achievement in tobaccos for the pipe, this beautiful mottled flake is incomparable in smoothness, balance and refinement.

Orlik Dark Strong Kentucky - The Orlik Dark Kentucky is a contrasting blend of Mature Virginia tobaccos, supplemented with dark- fired Kentucky tobacco, which is then pressed and cut into flakes. Full-bodied non-aromatic.

Bright CR Flake - 100% pure virginia leaf with no additional flavours made from a blend of Brazilian, Zimbabwe and Malawi bright virginia leaf. The pressed tobacco as with all flakes, is left to mature before cutting into flakes, to allow for the best combination of flavours.
