From the moment Navy Flake first appeared on tobacconists’ shelves, pipe smokers everywhere have shown their appreciation of this mixture. Selections of Burley tobacco were made from extensive stocks and after countless tests the right Burley content was found. Similarly tests were then carried out on Virginia tobacco. Different qualities of Virginia tobacco were selected and test smoked. Finally, a handful of these were selected for inclusion in the mixture. Once the right basic tobaccos had been found, a final important element was added to the mixture; a small measure of original Mac Baren Cavendish which gives the Navy Flake its full body.
