Cannon Plug is arguably one of the oldest tobaccos still in productions. Rumours of records for its use during the civil war have been circulating on line for years. What begins as delightful medium blend of Virginia tobaccos, pressed and aged for a cool and nutty flavour. Best brown flake is one of Samuel Gawiths most iconic tobaccos and Cannon brings a large helping of Honeydew into play.
The rich citrusy, woody aroma fills the room as soon as the bag is opened. Underlying this powerful scent, lurks the distinct Virginia aroma. This dense plug needs cutting fine to get the most from it. The smoke is cool and smooth and the strong topping really comes through. The sweet and sticky texture of the smoke coats the mouth and lingers. As with the Special Flake no2, Cannon plug is very heavily scented and ideal for serious Lakeland fans
