Gawith, Hoggarth & Co. Dark Plug Rum
(3.25)
A very strong, but very cool smoke is the result of combining in equal proportions only Malawi dark fired leaf and Indian dark air cured leaf. You can smell in this tobacco the smokey flavour of the dark fired leaf derived from its curing process of being hung above smoky fires, and the sweeter, yet still strong 'cigar type' flavour of the dark air cured Indian leaf. With added rum flavour.

Gawith Hoggarth - Dark Plug Rum.
As other reviewers have said, the pouch note is decidedly strong. I actually find the note from the pouch easier to identify as rum in comparison to the flavour. From the pouch the plug is a very dark brown and sadly it's soaked to the core, I like to slice it and leave it to air when cut. As I said, the rum is more striking in the pouch note. It comes through in the smoke but seems a little more nondescript, alcoholic but it's not too clear about what form of beverage has been included. The smoke is pretty cool and I don't get bitten by it. Unlike the flavour, an area where there is no ambiguity is the nicotine amount. It gives me a good dose of N! I find that at about the halfway point the rum seems a bit clearer, it's still not overly so but I definitely find it easier to identify as rum instead of it being really nondescript. Providing it's been allowed to dry off some the burn is good but when smoked whilst damp it is a bit mischievous!
Somewhat recommended as I find it neither great nor rubbish.
