Gawith & Hoggarth’s Jamaican Flake is a rich, traditional Virginia flake elevated with a distinctive rum-inspired flavouring. Crafted in Kendal using time-honoured methods, this blend delivers a deep, satisfying smoke with a character that stands out from more conventional flakes.
At its core are high-quality Virginias, pressed and matured to develop natural sweetness and a smooth, rounded body. The addition of a dark, warming Jamaican rum essence brings a subtle aromatic dimension—never overpowering, but present enough to enhance the tobacco’s natural depth.
Presented as well-formed flakes, Jamaican Flake can be enjoyed folded or rubbed out depending on your preference. Once lit, it burns cool and steady, offering notes of caramelised sugar, dark fruit, and a gentle boozy warmth throughout the bowl.
This is an ideal choice for smokers who appreciate traditional British flakes with a touch of added character—flavoured, but still very much tobacco-forward.
