Samuel Gawith Kendal Cream Mixture
(3.00)
Using the same blend as Kendal Cream Flake, we have developed this broad cut mixture for the smoker who enjoys a mild and creamy pipeful. Experience the particularly pleasing room-aroma.
Notes: This selection of blended burley and Virginias offers a mild and creamy smoke from a medium density flake. With an added essence, the pipe smoker who derives pleasure from an easy to rub out flake will certainly enjoy Samuel Gawith's Kendal Cream Flake.

Perhaps I should have tried the flake version first, as this blend underwhelmed me. Initial light produced a sudden and strong berry/cherry flavor. As a newcomer to Lake district styles, I'm always surprised by this fruity, floral note. Midway into the bowl this has dissipated somewhat and there's a nice, mild but solid tobacco flavor. I don't find this to be as much of an aromatic as other blends, but it certainly doesn't drive the dog out of the room. Will definitely have to try the flake version.

Methinks this is not merely the Flake version haphazardly chopped apart and placed in a can. None of the strength or complexity that is present in the latter shows up. I found a rough mix of burley and virginia, doused in an unidentifiable scent. That being said, the smoke is passable, for someone who ventures into the land of heavily cased Lakeland tobaccos. A friend of mine smokes this almost exclusively and I consider him a sensible fellow...I'll enjoy the Flake.
