No. 88 Black Flake

No. 88 Black Flake is the flake member of the Olaf Poulsson line, prepared in Danish style by German manufacturer Dan Tobacco (DTM). It's one of the rarer black-cavendish-based broken flakes on the market. The leaf undergoes extended hot fermentation, a process that softens the body and darkens its color. It's offered in a fifty-gram pouch and a large two-hundred-fifty-gram package.

The measured topping applied runs toward vanilla and forest fruit, though per the maker's recipe the leaf's own natural impression stays dominant. Thanks to the flake structure and moisture from fermentation, it burns very slowly and coolly; it's light in nicotine. It suits those seeking a mellow, sweet, long smoke, and those wanting to get used to packing flake.
