This auction contains:
1 sealed 50g tin of Full Virginia flake (2016, sealed)

Samuel Gawith's full virginia flake (FVF) is one of the most well regarded pipe tobaccos that you will encounter on your pipe tobacco tasting journey - unlike the FVF out there today, these have been aged for a decade!
About the blend:
-------------------------
FVF is renowned for its mildly-fermented, tangy dark-fruit sweetness with blended together with tart, sugary citrus, plenty of earth and wood, a little vegetative grass and just a touch of spice.
But you're not just bidding on FVF, you're getting premium, fully-aged FVF. Like a fine whiskey, the ageing process enhances the tobacco, mellowing the Virginias, bringing out more of the natural sugars and flavors of rich dark pudding with tasting added notes reminiscent of the olfactory sensations of sweet grasses and open meadows.
A true delight that's a decade in the making.
Condition:
-------------------------
The tin is sealed and was purchased in 2016. The jarred tobacco was also purchased in 2016. Both have been stored, unopened, in a climate controlled cellar since their purchase.
