Nothing exciting...
November 03, 2013
Product: Gawith Hoggarth & Co. Broken Scotch Cake Bulk
Not to be confused with Scotch Flake under any circumstances, this is an OK blend remarkable only in its utter blandness. If it had a job, it'd be a movie extra.
Smoke your cake and eat it too!?

This is a really good smoker. Relaxed and delicious. One of the best Ive ever smoked. Just something that is so inviting about the mildness. Enjoy!

Best Straight Virginia Ive Had
February 04, 2022
Product: Gawith Hoggarth & Co. Broken Scotch Cake 50g
As far as straight Virginia blends go I think this is the best out there. Very wet from the tin and will require plenty of drying but what a fabulous smoke. So smooth, yum.
Product: Gawith Hoggarth & Co. Broken Scotch Cake Bulk
I found this to be a particularly pleasant smoke. This tobacco burns nicely, with no bite. I found the flavor light and the room note delightful. The taste was sweet, but not domineering like some aromatics can be. The aftertaste is almost non exi... Read More
stent, unlike the lingering flavor Cavendish often promotes. I will surely be ordering more of this. I can see this easily becoming a go to tobacco and can't wait to burn more of it! Read Less
absolutely soft the tobacco

Product: Gawith Hoggarth & Co. Broken Scotch Cake 50g
Well, what can I say, first of all, I note how absolutely soft the tobacco is, perhaps due to the 2.5 years of aging.
Humidity almost tobacco is ready to smoke, maybe hold a little before driving into the bowl.

Interesting Virginia blend
March 23, 2023
Product: Gawith Hoggarth & Co. Broken Scotch Cake Bulk
The smoke is very smooth, and pleasant but not so different to other flavors from Virginias. However, it is very interesting after some burns. It has some natural sweetness together with grass and citrus aromas. I recommend it for sure, however, it i... Read More

Broken Scotch Doesn't Need Mending
December 06, 2022
Product: Gawith Hoggarth & Co. Broken Scotch Cake 50g
I'm one of the Virginia smokers who really enjoys the slow, mild sweetness of naturalVirginias. I could smoke this all day if it weren't for the flue-cured Virginia aspect of this Virginia tobacco. I do like the combination of the sun-cured Virginia ... Read More
with the flue-cured. It works better for me, however, when I blend it with 1 part burley and 2 parts black Cavendish with 5 parts of the broken Scotch flake. This makes it an all afternoon smoke for me. I love the mildness of the Virginia this way. I subtracted .5 from a perfect 5 because of the allergy-arousing itch of the intense flue-dried VA. I really love the natural sweetness of the sun-cured Virginia. I had no bite from the tobacco and no need to dry it before smoking. A great smoke for those who love the straight Virginias. Read Less
Great morning smoke

Product: Gawith Hoggarth & Co. Broken Scotch Cake 50g
I have noticed, both here and on tobacco reviews.com, that there is a small group of people who have been unimpressed by this offering by GH. I honestly am shocked that this would be so overlooked as this is one of my personal favorites from GH. I am... Read More
something of a Virginia fanatic, and any strait Virginia is likely to satisfy me. If you like strait Virginias too I highly recommend. Read Less
Great Stuff All Day Long

Product: Gawith Hoggarth & Co. Broken Scotch Cake Bulk
Tasty, Decent Nic Hit and mild enough to smoke all day and night. Blended with some Perique for a more Robust Flavor and Nic Hit. Will be back for more of this blend. Nice aroma and not an overbearing after taste due to the mild strength of tobacco... Read More

Wonderful. Out of a clay pipe,this tobacco exhibits some of the loveliest mild tobacco flavors. Simply superb. Dry it down all the way.
Mixed Bag
September 03, 2018
Product: Gawith Hoggarth & Co. Broken Scotch Cake Bulk
The texture and color of this blend is very appealing to the eye - like long threads of a spongy bark. The smell is also nice. Sadly, it burns a little too sharp on its own. That said, it does mellows with age. A year in solitary confinement produced... Read More
a more rounded smoke. Aged or not, Broken Scotch Cake works well as a condiment, adding zest to a dull or overly smoky blend without distorting the taste. As for the room note, it remains the same either way - simply outstanding. Read Less

Light Blend

This to me , was somewhat plain ( maybe it's suppose to be ) but it does have a fragrant taste. I do appreciate the lightness though.
Not for me
August 08, 2017
Product: Gawith Hoggarth & Co. Broken Scotch Cake 50g
It is indeed mild for a Virginia and lacks the dried fruit associated with them. What it does have is a taste of purfume and flowers. Not at all a fan of those tastes. If you are, than perhaps you'll enjoy it. It's mechanics are good and it's packed ... Read More

A mild smoke
March 01, 2015
Product: Gawith Hoggarth & Co. Broken Scotch Cake 50g
I thought this would be more of a flake that had been broken into pieces. It is closer to a ribbon cut actually. That said, it is a mild smooth smoke without much of a "bite". This is not unpleasant but is not as strong as my usual pref... Read More
erences. Ultimately, time will tell, as this is the first time I have tried it. It burns slowly and evenly, developing a nice red ember. It does not have a penetrating room note so is not likely to annoy my wife. That alone is a good point. Read Less
