The Gladora Tobacco range includes the Pesse Canoe Oriental Flake, a distinctive Turkish-style pipe tobacco mix that blends Virginia and Oriental tobaccos farmed in Turkey into a flake cut. For a cool, gradual burn, natural sweeteners are gently added.

With a profile that changes over the smoke, the mix gives a pleasing balance of natural sweetness and spice.

First Third: A rich, natural sweetness that is reminiscent of dried fruits like figs and raisins dominates the first third of the flavour profile. Underlying notes of dirt, almonds, and light wood counterbalance this.

Second Third: The Oriental leaf's unique character is highlighted as the sweetness lessens and more subtle floral and spicy notes appear. There may also be some herbal overtones and a creamy mouthfeel.

Final Third: The Oriental tobacco, which contributes a lasting spice and a little dry, sour character, intensifies the finish and creates a complex and fulfilling experience.
