One of the best Irish X ropes by a landslide.

maple, licorice, and tonka bean mix used on dark flake scented and brown flake aromatic. On the underlying brown Irish X, it is even better.
Nicotine is nowhere as strong as dark flake, coniston or dark plug. It is steady and easy to smoke. I was surprised at how middle of the road the nicotine was.
No chance of tongue bite, and might be the best tasting tobacco from Gawith and Hoggarth, if you want to taste both tobacco and a topping. No chance of bitter, and the room note is great compared to the other ropes. I like this even better than the discontined coconut twist, which was my favorite Irish X until I tried this (but they are all good) which is just so creamy. The topping is just right, and has a wonderful aftertaste.
Burns dry with no dottle. I cut up enough to load a big pipe's worth, which I rubbed out and let dry overnight. It strangely tastes as if it was already aged, and it is best described as all around gentle, almost as much so as kendal flake is. I can't image how good this will be with some age on it.
If you are new to Gawith and Hoggarth, give this a try. It is a 5 star masterpiece.
It is as if they took all of their blending experience and distilled it into this rope.
This could become my go to blend it is so smooth, easy smoking and good tasting. I don't often find blends that impress me on the first smoke....Read More

nce. Aromatic is present, but in a supporting role - VA takes the leading, leathery note, Indo provides the snap, and Lakeland keeps the blend interesting. Smoke is consistent (after relights) through the whole bowl, ending with a white ash. Only a 4.5 because it will get better with time. Lovely, lovely smoke!...Read More

This tobacco is very tasty, it has a Lakeland essence. It def is stout and will fulfill your vit N needs. If left out to dry for too long it loses flavor, works great as a blender or on its own. Cheers and happy piping 💨

Smoothest Twist I've Tried

it really comes through, as opposed to searching for the flavors in some other twists. While these Brown twists have the reputation of being very powerful, I found this one easily manageable in a smaller bowl (think Dunhill group 2 or 3). I have enjoyed all of the twists I have tried so far but this one really stood out to me. Keep in mind it did have around a year of age on it so that may have helped smooth out the rough edges....Read More
