Gawith, Hoggarth & Co. Bright CR Flake-Coconut
(1.67)
Bright CR is exactly as the name implies, light and bright. Comprised of strains of Virginia from Brazil, Malawi and Zimbabwe. The coconut topping soaks into the golden flake resulting in a blend that resembles Brown Flake or one of the popular Lakeland blends.

Gawith Hoggarth - Bright Flake CR Coconut.
The smell from the pouch seems heavily cased with coconut, there isn't any mistaking what's in this. The flake is a medium brown with the odd lighter speck here and there. It does require drying, it's not saturated but it's still too moist to smoke imminently. The flavour of the smoke is identical to what the aroma suggested, very false. To be fair, because the coconut casing is such a high calibre one it masks any Virginia nuances making the tobacco flavours redundant. I don't get much nicotine from this, it's quite mild in that area. A better area is the burn, it gives a good burn throughout and the smoke isn't particularly warm on the tongue. The room note is remarkable, it's got that much coconut in it!
I have no doubt that there will be plenty of folks who'll adore this but for me it's a bit to different, like smoking a Bounty chocolate bar! Not recommended.
