AVAILABLE ON TUESDAY, APRIL 23RD AT 12PM BOSTON TIME! FINAL RUN- This will be the last run of Old Dominion Anniversary flake as we will now be focusing our attention on a 30th Anniversary blend for the future. There will be no limits.
For our 25th Anniversary Sutliff was asked to source leaf for a true flake version of "Old Dominion" and as always they rose to the challenge. To our surprise, the flake they produced is very close to our original "Hampton Roads". Rich and flavorful with a musty sweetness underneath and the potential to age well "in tin" for decades.
For those who like more info- In 2008 Watch City formulated a flake called "Hampton Roads" which was produced at a major American blending house to our specifications. This flake was a hit, but was sadly discontinued due to leaf shortages several years ago. We gave the same recipe to our friends at Sutliff who produced a "Crumble Flake" for us with the exact same specs....it too was a hit but did not resemble Hampton Roads in flavor or strength. This cake became our "Old Dominion"- our top selling tobacco.
An old mason Jar of our original Hampton roads which i Vacuum sealed in 2010 has continued to "Perique" and mellow over the years and has turned from mottled to jet black. We hope that our sealed tins of Old dominion Flake will do the same!
