Product Description

Bobs Choc Flake has a cult following, the unusual combination of Latakia, Cocoa and Lakeland florals. Comprised of Brazilian and African Virginias, a dash of Burley from Malawi and 8% Latakia. Without the toppings and casing, this would make for a great light Latakia flake. With the flavourings, Bobs Choc Flake becomes one of Gawith Hoggarths most prized tobaccos.

From the pouch you get a spicy, smoky aroma from the tobaccos and a sweet chocolate scent from the toppings. The tobacco smokes best a little drier and rubbed out before smoking, but worth the extra effort. Once she is burning the magic happens; mingling with the sweet and smoky tastes of the base tobacco, is the chocolate, vanilla and floral extracts. The smoke is cool, smooth and has a wonderful room note. The florals are subtle and are barely detectable compared to most Lakelands, leaving the Chocolate and Latakia to take centre stage.

  1. G&H Bob's Choc Flake/Plug 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 10th Feb 2016

    I have to say off the bat that I'm a novice pipe smoker & my palate probably wasn't opened up to the world of tobacco & what delights were to come!!

    First time I tried this I wasn't that taken with it to be honest, it was the flake and I wasn't to keen on the soapy/perfumey taste I was getting from it so I just left it.
    After a couple of days I found myself thinking about the blend and almost felt like I wanted that soapy yet floral taste again so I filled another bowl.
    I could taste the chocolate during charring it along with read the reviews on it again, they were all really positive apart from one which was written by someone who'd had the same experience as I did with it.
    He talks about the Kendal Perfume & tonquin which, I can only presume, is what I had tasted & disliked initially.

    However, my 2nd bowl of it I couldn't have enjoyed more and I've went through 4oz since!
