Samuel Gawith Pure Black Cavendish
(1.67)
Made by pressing tobacco leaves into a cake about an inch thick. Heat from steam is then applied and the tobacco is allowed to ferment which results in a sweet and mild tobacco. Generally cavendish tobacco is flavoured but this is pure with no added flavourings. Generally used as a blending tobacco which is great for bringing down the strength of a tobacco which you find too strong.

Sam Gawith - Pure Black Cavendish.
From the pouch it's really coarse cut and despite the name the mix contains quite a few medium brown pieces. The smell that's emanating is slightly sweet and fairly full. This one's good in hydration, a nice treat as opposed to the usual drenched Sam G' scenario! The flavour of the smoke is basic, it's a moderately sweet one. I could see this being good for taming down harsher blends. The smoke doesn't bite me any and it's pretty cool in temperature. This offers very little nicotine but seeing as this is aimed at blending I don't see that as a relevant point.
To smoke this neat seems pretty pointless but considering this is for blending I'll rate it on the merits of a straight Black Cav', recommended.
