Gawith, Hoggarth & Co. - Kendal Dark Thick Cut.
I'll echo what a few other reviewers say, it doesn't warrant the name Thick Cut. Mine could still pass as a shag. The 'ribbons' are of a good hydration and have bit of a fire-cured aroma. I wasn't a fan of its sibling Kendal Dark, but am slightly more content with this.
The lighting of it's simple enough, and then the smoke has just enough weight to satisfy, yet isn't overbearing. The leading flavour comes from the Malawi dark fired, however it isn't acrid. The air-cured Virginias give the smoke a sweetness, slight lift, and they calm the often irrepressible nature of the fire-cured tobacco. The temperature's cool, but although the name Thick Cut had me anticipating a slow burning tobacco it can be over fast if not savoured.
Nicotine: quite strong. Room-note: quite heavy.
Kendal Dark Thick Cut: it's a decent enough smoke but I'll rate it with two stars as there's no way I could smoke more than one bowl of it per day!
Somewhat recommended.
