Gawith, Hoggarth & Co. Black & Brown

My first review here so do forgive its brevity and any omissions and errors.

Unlike some of the other reviewers I do sense a very slight Lakelands/perfume flavoring. That's what prompted this review. Overall a very good smoke with some vitamin N but not a bomb in that sense. A very fullish flavor and I do know it's a premium tobacco with only a hint of a perfumed type flavoring.

I would actually recommend it for someone who wants to try some of the more perfumed tobaccos without wanting to be overwhelmed or frightened away.

While looking for a non-chemical ladden tobacco similar to Capt Black White I happened on this one. Initial pouch aroma reminded me of sweet cake batter and very pleasant. Short ribbon cut of medium to golden brown and black. GQ website says it has vanilla but I can't honestly say that; implied by the sweetness for sure, but not in your face vanilla. GH website says molasses. Deep pouch sniffing was more like taking a whiff of Mrs Butterworth's Maple Syrup . I loaded it fresh from the pouch and it was no problem lighting considering its freshness. Smoked clean, dry, and with minimal bite. The sweetness remained ever present throughout the smoke. Great side stream aroma and leaves a really nice room note. Unlike CBW, this one has a medium amount of nicotene presence and a full enough taste to let you know you're smoking tobacco and not candy. No Lakeland presence as per florals, but the GH processed Virginias were very evident (metallic like to me). All in all a very nice smoke in the aromatic category and a nice change of pace from what I usually smoke (see my favorites). Recommended, but will be reserved for when I crave something sweet.

a well blend, flavour tobacco. this tobacco burn moderate. take a slow puff and you can taste all the nice flavours. little creamy and nicely sweet. i have no regrets. does not burn your tongue. overall, it is another smooth and gd blend from gawith. i have list it in my anytime smoke.
