Review - Samuel Gawith, 1792 Flake
Samuel Gawith- 1792 Flake
I have been waiting to try this one for a while. Being that I enjoy stronger tobaccos this seemed as a fair contender for a date with my pipe. Right away after opening the tin, I knew this was going to be something diffrent to my usual smoke. The strong tonquin flavor is the first thing that hits you. Breaking up the tobacco is quite easy, but will dirty your hands. Had a little bit of trouble lighting the tobacco, but once it started going it just went on. Just relighted once. Be prepared for a nikotin rush if you smoke this one to fast. Even thought this is a strong tobacco no tongue bite was apparent. The taste can be almost compared to black licorice, wich some will enjoy and some wont. Overall this is a tobacco I will for sure come back to, even thought probably not on a daily basis. |
