Orlik Strong Dark Kentucky Flakes - Smoked by all shrewd judges

I had an email from a pipe forum member,  I thought I'd feature him as my post for the day! Below is the last in a string of emails. I love this tobacco, sweet, earthy, full and fruity.

Dear Chuck,

The ODSKF has always been right up there with the old style (original) Balkan Sobranie for my taste-buds and smoking style. Attached is a photograph of a ODSKF flake (or several. have yet to take the photograph) from one of my tins.

Keep in mind that this flake has been aged 15 years and is much darker than when fresh. I'm also towards the end of this tin so whole flakes are hard to come by! These were the most complete three I could find. Hope it helps.

Note how yellowed the cardboard is, 15 years with tobacco will do that!
