The idea of this thread is to connect the dots between the myriad of pipe tobacco mixtures available today and to post the names and characteristics of blends that you find to be very similar or identical. Being correct isn't really the point, rather to have a community discussion on those tobaccos that you think should be grouped together, either because they are, in fact, identical, or close enough in your estimation that other smokers can profit from that knowledge. I think this should be an ongoing thread and if we do a good job the the comparisons should, perhaps, be put into a stick pr reference thread for other smokers to access when contemplating blends.

An examples in a format that you can use (and improve) as you like.


Mild-medium Virginia Flake, made in Denmark.

  1. Peter Stokkebye, Luxury Navy Flake
  2. Comoy's Cask #4


I can't distinguish between the two, visually or in smoking. Everything about these 2 mixtures seems to be the same and I believe that they are, in fact, the same tobacco under different labels. Flakes need specialized equipment so that the same country of origin is meaningful (in this case).

Images may not be always be accurate but in this case they look correct.
