Gawith Hoggarth - Sliced Brown Malt Whisky.
The appearance is exactly the same as the any of the Sliced Brown's: about a fifty fifty split between coins and ribbons. This one, unlike the non-aromatic versions has a false aroma though: clearly whisky. Although it's quite heavy, it's not so good as to be able to identify if it is indeed from Single Malt or a cheaper variety though! Normally I find Gawith Hoggarth's moisture to be spot on, but this is one of the few that needs airing before it can be smoked.
I remember when I was a kid people would say "this ul make a man of ya", and that saying came to my mind straight away! The smoke has more of a pure tobacco flavour, instead of a strongly false whisky one: the whisky only adds a very subtle taste. The majority of the flavour is smoky Virginia: this is nice enough, but if I puff quite vigorously pleasant can become a touch bitter.
The nicotine......VERY STRONG! And the room-note's quite pleasant too.
If I puff gently it warrants full marks, but solely due to the acridness caused by zealous puffs it can only have three stars.
Recommended.
