Gawith, Hoggarth & Co. Pensioners Mixture

Well, being perilously close to the age of a pensioner, I thought I ought to try this! Opening the 25 gramme pack the frankly awful bubblegum scent made me wince and chuck the thing onto the side of the kitchen worktop. I thought, *I cannot smoke that disgusting stuff...still it was only a few quid* Then a week or so later I picked it up again while cleaning the worktop....and suprise, suprise the yucky smell had vanished completely and a fairly decent tobacco scent was left, so I took a closer look at the contents, filled up a pipe and had a smoke. Not half bad actually! Probably not cheap enough to warrant buying this too often, but not bad in the flavour or strength department. And here's a suprise, it doesn't actually smoke as if it's stuff swept up off the floor either; it smokes rather like a composite of G & H blends...which of course it is. So...message to G & H first. For goodness sake stop using that disgusting bubblegum scent! Message to fellow pipesmokers....give it a try but leave it a week or so to let the smell vanish first.
