Orlik 金色切片菸草

The way it crumbles into the pipe is perfect — not too fine, not too coarse. It burns slow and even, and the slight Burley gives it just enough body without overwhelming the Virginia.

The Virginia sweetness comes through right from the first light, and that touch of Burley keeps it from getting cloying. I love how the flake rubs out easily and burns slow, giving me a good hour of steady, mellow smoke.

The flake cut is a bit fiddly to pack at first, but once I got the hang of it, it burns nice and slow. I really appreciate the touch of Burley giving it that little zest alongside the smooth Virginia sweetness.
