Gawith, Hoggarth & Co. No. 25 Mixture
(3.68)
No. 25 Mixture: this blend is another one for the smoker devoted to latakia. bright Virginias (53%) are blended predominantly with light burleys (17%), but the introduction of some dark sun-cured (10%) helps to both cool and sweeten the smoke. Finally, the addition of latakia (20%) gives the blend its main character.

This is a good one. I find this ribbon cut to not give much up in its tin note. I smell mostly virginia with a light smokiness. Moisture level perfect.
Takes one light and burns nicely. I feel as though the virginia burley base in this blend is a perfect backbone for the latakia. Its not over done, its just the right amount of lat for my palate.
The actual tobacco they use for their blends is always of the highest quality, And thats what shines through in this blend, high quality well blended tobacco.

I wanted to try all of Gawith Hoggarths products before I die. But after trying this 25 mixture I've given up this aim. Now all I've got left is playing for Bristol City. In the Champions League finals.
Gawith Hoggarth are, as far as I'm concerned, the only tobacco manufacturer left worth bothering with. Well, nearly. Samuel Gawith and E A Carey are good as well.
But No 25 is too drab for me. It's tired, like unkempt grey hair. It's as insipid as powdered cappuccino made with tepid water.
