Initial thoughts on SG Navy Flake (Not a real review)

[Cool Breeze]

I don't think this really counts as a legit review, as I have only had one bowl of this so far, but I wanted to share my initial thoughts.

I think it is official, I'm a Samuel Gawith whore. My favorite VA blend is FVF, my favorite Vaper is St. James Flake and now (even though I've only tried a few Navy Flakes) this one takes the spot for Navy flakes as well.

It's the only Navy Flake that I am aware of that has a touch of Latakia, but there may be more I'm not aware of. But when I say a touch, that's really all there is to me. The Virginias are the star and the Latakia is merely a team player. I think this is the first Lat blend I've had where it didn't dominate the blend.
It says it has a rum topping, but it must be a small amount because I'm not even sure I picked it up. What I did pick up was slightly sweet and was spicier than most VA blends, almost like it had a little Perique (which it does not). The Latakia stayed under the radar and complimented well without stealing the show.

I know it's only one bowl, but I enjoyed it very much and am looking forward to trying it in a few different pipes.

One more time, a big thank you to @BryGuySC . Looks like I'm really going to like this one, just like I do all their blends.
