You will probably be assaulted with a bunch of ideas. I love flake tobacco and don't discriminate too much on flavors (flavours). So i'll just give you one that most enjoy and is very economical.

get some Dunhill Light Flake while it's still available.
SmokingPipes has it at a very good price.

PS Luxury navy flake and Bullseye flake are both VaPers and great tasting tobac. Another good flake is penzance, but it's the heavy latakia/english.

A few to consider:

Escudo - Va/per
Hamborger Beermaster - Va.
Patriot Flake - Va.
Stonehaven - Burley/Va
G&S Medium Flake - Va.
Marlin Flake - Va.
Solani - Virginia Flake 633 - Va/per
Laurel Flake - Va/per

Thanks for the suggestions so far guys.

I"m ordering FVF for sure as well as SG navy flake ( I like perique alot) but smoking the blackwoods flake which has no perique in it but has some stoved Virginia, I find a depth in the sweetness I have yet to find in another smoke thus far in my short career. I wish they sold a bulk version of this stuff!

Also I'm gonna get some PS bullseye flake I think. (On Dubs review on tobaccoreviews)

Keep em coming guys I thank you all whole heartedly for the tips!

I find FVF impossible to smoke as a "flake". Its too wet and spongy to stay folded 'n stuffed, keeps trying to jump out of the bowl - no matter how long I dry it out. I love FVF, but have to rub it out.

St. James Flake (also from Sammy G) is the perique version, also impossible to smoke flake'd. Rub-a-dub-dub.
