Gawith, Hoggarth & Co. Brown Irish Sweet Chocolate Rose
(2.00)
A real Turkish delight! Brown Irish, the thicker version of Brown Bogie is a true old fashioned stout smoke. Perfect with good strength suited to the more experienced pipe smoker. Flavoured with Chocolate and Rose.
Brown Irish Sweet Chocolate Rose - The main feature of this tobacco is the addition of inverted sugars, Chocolate and Rose to the 'filter' leaf. This is then spun into a rope form before being made into a roll which is cold-pressed overnight.

Gawith Hoggarth - Brown Twist Sweet Chocolate Rose.
The smell from the pouch is mainly roses, I can't really pick out any cocoa. I find this easy to prepare, although it's thick once sliced into coins they rub out easily. If I draw through the filled pipe whilst un-lit it gives a very floral taste, almost like a warning of the smoke that's about to follow! When it's lit I struggle to identify any chocolate, the rose taste is too much to allow anything other to come through. At the beginning the flavour is quite straight forward, granted I don't like it but it gives a simple rose taste but sadly after the first ten minutes it develops a bitterness which is most unpleasant. Again, due to the strong floral note I can't comment on the tobacco flavours as they too are masked. An area that I find easy to notify is nicotine. Oh my, it has a kick to it! The room note has the same quality I have found the whole way through, all roses and nothing else! Do no smoke this in a favoured pipe as the ghost is sure to taint it for a while.
The easiest thing to do with this blend (apart from binning it) is score it.... one star.

Worst tobacco I've ever purchased. A pure nightmare to get going and requires constant relighting. Dreadful taste and room note. I can only taste nicotine. I've tried it through a briar, pearwood and corncob. Burns best in corncob. Tried blending with other tobaccos but just ruined them. Someone had written that it taste like a stripped down cigar. They are obviously not cigar smokers. Do I regret purchasing it? No. You cannot comment on something you haven't tried. I wanted so much to like this.
