Gawith, Hoggarth & Co. Ennerdale Mixture
(3.54)
Predominately Virginia leaf from Brazil, Zimbabwe, and Malawi (86%) but with the addition of sun-cured Malawi (10%) to add sweetness, strength and to cool the smoke and Malawi Burley (4%) to add body and to "carry the flavor" in addition to its cooling and strength qualities.
A background flavor of almond is enhanced with the addition of fruit, vanilla, and the special 'Lakeland style' flavors to give this tobacco its distinctive aroma and taste.

I bought this one to see how it would compare to the full flake. I wasn't surprised when the wafts of cherry came flooding out of the packet, even if it was less sweet than the flake. The packing and lighting are equally as easy. The smoke is a little different, maintaining the cherry flavour for longer and providing a bit more kick from the Vitamin N. On the whole then, just as big a pleasure to smoke as the flake but different enough to keep both in my rotation. Whether or not the flake would taste the same if rubbed out and left in a jar for a week I don't know, but worth a try? Maybe.

This is an exceptional, high-quality tobacco that I'll always try to keep on hand. It satisfies whenever you feel like something a bit different.
I detect only trace amounts of the traditional Lakeland "geranium perfumed soap" flavor in the tin or while smoking. In fact, I would hesitate to call this a true Lakeland. I would instead describe this as an almond-flavored aromatic (perhaps adding "in the Lakeland tradition"). It has the perfect amount of aromatic flavoring to enhance rather than mask the quality tobaccos used.
Even if you aren't a Lakeland fan, I think this is worth a try. 4 stars.

Dryed it out on a hot day. Thought I'd done enough. Still burnt wet with several relights. However, it is good tobacco, mild, not harsh. I like inhaling at the start of a bowl and here there is no strong nic hit, so you can walk about, do manual tasks, no worries. The flavour is delightful, a mixture of delicate florals and fruit. I have put it back in the jar for further drying and expect an improved burn.
