1 sealed 2 oz tin of Carolina Red Flake (Tin #1798 of 2400)
About the blend:
-------------------------
If you know, you know. Cornell & Diehl’s Carolina Red Flake took the pipe tobacco world by utter surprise in 2016. It sold out within minutes of being listed during its first run.
This small-batch straight (red) Virginia has a sweet, tangy, and earthy flavor profile. It has been described as having notes of dried cranberries, malt, wood, and sourdough. It is characterized by high natural sugar content, producing a, mellow, sometimes woody or bready taste with slight spice.
Red Virginia tobacco is known to age incredibly well, typically displaying rich notes of stewed fruits, figs, raisin, molasses and earthy tones.
But what is Carolina Red Flake like after 10 years? There are only 2400 people around the world that could possibly answer that question and most of them likely enjoyed their tins long ago!
By purchasing this tin, you are one of only a very small handful of exclusive pipe tobacco enthusiasts who will know the answer. The other 9 billion people on this planet will never have the chance.
Condition:
-------------------------
This 2 oz tin is sealed and was purchased in 2016. It has been stored in a climate-controlled tobacco cellar since it was purchased.
