Samuel Gawith Kendal Cream Deluxe Flake

Kendal Cream Deluxe Flake, now labeled KC Deluxe Flake, is Samuel Gawith's medium-intensity flake bringing together sweet Virginia and Burley leaf. The slices are not tightly pressed, so they crumble easily by hand and pack effortlessly. As with most Lakeland blends, it is flavored by the producer with an essence blend, though the flavor level is more measured than the brand's heavier aromatics like Grousemoor. On the smoke, Burley's creamy, nutty body is balanced by Virginia's sweetness; the flavor line stays mild, while nicotine fullness becomes noticeable toward the middle of the bowl.
