Gawith Hoggarth Loose Flake

A 'Christmas cake' tobacco. A very rich, sweet fully flavoured blend. The main feature is the high proportion of naturally sweet sun-cured tobaccos in the blend - over 40%. Only 30% Virginia leaf, with the rest of the blend coming from Burleys and dark-air cured, contributing to a strong but rewarding smoke. The whole blend is cased in maple sugars to further enhance the natural sweetness of the sun cured leaf and then rounded off with a dash of rum.

Medium strength blend comprised of mainly flue cured Virginias with the addition of a little dark air cured and a dash of Burley, which keeps the blend cool and smooth to smoke. Without the topping this blend is smooth and packed full of grassy flavours, with a little leather and dirt from the air cured. Not heavily flavoured - the honey dew toppings are enough to add a little extra flavour to the smoke and the use of Vanilla is barely noticeable. Unlike many other Lakelands blends, the toppings die down as you smoke, leaving the natural beauty of the tobacco.

The lightest of the Lakeland flakes, thanks to its pure gold Virginia blend. The addition of sweet Lakeland toppings are subtle and Glengarry is neither heavy on the floral nor the soapy texture. From the pouch this tobacco has very little in the way of added aromas, you would almost expect this to be a natural (unflavoured) Virginia flake. The toppings add a sweet, subtly floral tone. A great introduction to the world of Lakeland tobaccos, mild, sweet and subtly floral.

A beautiful delicate Lakeland blend of Virginias and Burley. The Burley not only gives some strength (medium) and keeps the smoke cool, it also absorbs the toppings. While not as heavily scented as Ennerdale or Conniston, the use of Rose Geranium makes for a very nice aroma. The use of natural extracts and a little added sugar creates a very clean taste and burn. The strong taste of Rose is very similar to that of Turkish delight. Never gets too soapy thanks to the controlled use of the toppings. To really appreciate its delicate nature, best smoked in a dedicated pipe.

A powerful and full flavoured flake tobacco, which has always been popular. Made from equal part of Malawi Dark Fired and Indian Dark Air Cured, this tobacco is cold pressed for over a week. The pressed plug is then sliced into flakes. The resulting black tobacco has a deep and earthy aroma, with rich and pungent smoky smell. It is packed full of nicotine and all the complex flavours you would expect - from the leathery, smoky, cigar like flavours of the fire cured, to the earthy, woody and spice from the dark air cured.

A blend of Virginias from Africa and South America, with a little Burley from Malawi. Most of these tobaccos are chosen for their sweet taste and ability to soak up the complex top dressings. The use of Burley and darker air cured tobaccos keeps the smoke cooler and brings a woody, creamy texture to the smoke. Has been popular for generations and is considered the benchmark for all Lakeland tobaccos. One of the more complex aromas of rum, vanilla, floral extracts, citrus fruit and almond, the result is a highly aromatic tobacco.

The flavour of this tobacco derives purely from the choice of leaf in the blend, as it has no additional casings or flavours to enhance the smoke. 83.5% blended Virginias are combined with a relatively high (for English Blends at any rate) proportion of Malawi Burley, 12.5%, to give flavour and depth to the smoke, and the addition of just 4% Malawi dark fired leaf is sufficient to combat the typical sharpness of the Virginia leaf, resulting in a rounded medium strength smoke.

A tobacco for those who love Latakia in high volumes. The jet black flake is made up from Virginia and Cypriot Latakia, with no other Orientals. The tobaccos are pressed and cooked, resulting in a jet black plug. The cooking process removes the hot and bitey nature of Virginia, while still retaining some of the natural sweetness. The flakes are cut to the usual Gawith Hoggarth size and break down with ease. Thanks to the cool texture of Latakia, this tobacco will still be reasonably cool to smoke if broken down finely. The smoke might not be overly strong on the nicotine, but the flavour more than makes up for that.

A block blend of flue cured Virginias with dark cured Perique, cut into flakes make this a truly unique blend. This non-aromatic blend derives spice, strength and coolness from the Perique, with subtle sweetness from the Virginias. Part of the Reunion Series, an exclusive range of tobaccos released in 2019 to celebrate a historic unification of Sam Gawith and Gawith Hoggarth. The two legendary companies go back to 1865, when two brothers, Samuel and John Gawith, shook hands and went their separate ways to pursue their own dreams in Kendal in the Lake District. Both have co-existed in a peaceful, friendly but competitive way ever since.
