Flavor & Aroma Profile

Cézanne Flake showcases bright, naturally sweet Virginias supported by Perique’s gentle spice and light acidity. The Perique is used with restraint, adding depth and subtle fruit‑tang without overpowering the Virginias. The result is a clean, natural smoke with shifting nuances—sweetness, mild sharpness, and earthy warmth—that mirror Cézanne’s philosophy of balance and harmony. [portmanntabak.ch]
