一款质量相当过硬的草
October 17, 2022
Product: Gawith Hoggarth & Co. Ennerdale Flake Bulk
首先一点,国内有人把它和安娜放一起,说他是用了安娜的基草,我觉得可能言过其实,这款草也没有加入P草,过鼻强度弱了很多,但它确实质量过硬,烟气饱满,不顶喉不辣舌,压制工艺让他长时间存放也有一定的湿度,方便人们随时品尝它。甜度只能算中下,但是白肋恰如其分的补上了一点烤面包的口感,我觉得是不可多得的草,不应该因为划分它为调味就小看它,建议买它1oz,你会觉得赚了,哪怕顶格买了它,放个两年它也不会让你后悔~

I think Brown Flake Unscented is G & Hogwarts' best flake, but I can certainly understand why this is their best seller. This, along with Coniston Cut Plug, are incredible in both aroma and taste! 😋

Beautiful flakes, however it smells like Grandma's lavender perfume and will ghost your pipe for a very long time. So, if you're brave enough to try this flake use a cheap corn cob and buy a small amount first!

首先说基草选用和裁切都很棒,非常工整漂亮的厚实长切片,草的湿度适中,醒一下就可以抽了。闻香肯定是有调味了,杏仁味、湖区味混合花香,点火后除了淡淡花果香和湖区的脂粉甜味,另外还有马拉维B草的坚果杏仁味,总体甜度不高但是很香,满足感也不错,而且烟气相对凉爽,抽吸体验非常棒!推荐大口径斗来尝试,下午时光配上白茶,慢慢来一斗很舒服。

Peak Lakeland

Amazing blend for lovers of Lakeland tobacco. Very essence-forward, light, and unorthodox. A great warm weather smoke or blend to break the monotony. The best of Gawith & Hoggarth, in my opinion.
So begins my Lakeland Tour

Product: Gawith Hoggarth & Co. Ennerdale Flake Bulk
I've tried most of the unscented Kendal dark fired tobaccos except for the flakes and plug, and enjoyed all of them a lot. I was reluctant to dive into the scented Lakeland blends due to what I've read, but after really doing some research, I pulled ... Read More
the trigger on ennerdale flake which is arguably the most scented. My worries were unfounded. I've been devouring this stuff at a record pace. The dressing is indeed very potent and apparent through most of the bowl, but near the bottom most of the flavor is that of the excellent tobaccos. It should be noted that I frequently smoke my pipe in multiple sittings, and if I do smoke it in one sitting the dressing remains fairly strong all the way to the end of the bowl. I think a person's level if satisfaction with this blend will come down to how much they love the aroma and flavor of the dressing, and people that only like tobacco flavors might be turned off, but in my opinion it's definitely worth a try. Especially if you smoke like I do. Satisfying in strength and nicotine, and a seasoned smoker could enjoy it all day as I have. While the dressing is heavily applied, it is natural and doesn't have the same chemical taste often associated with American aromatics, and for this reason I find Ennerdale a superior aromatic Virginia flake, as is the case with the other gawith aromatic flakes. Ennerdale came soaking wet and I dried it until it was no longer wet to the touch, but still noticeably moist when light lot rubbing my fingers against the grain. Considering the moisture content this flake smokes pretty dry, and when I got to the bottom of my pipe it was indeed dry, and I can only attribute this to the natural flavoring methods and natural tobaccos with an utter lack of pg. I just received 2 ounces each of Grasmere, Glengarry, dark, no 7, and Kendal flake and I can already tell I'll be hoarding pounds of GH flakes as soon as I responsibly can. What a delightful and unique aroma on each blend and very high quality tobaccos. Once I fully collect my thoughts I'll expand my review. Read Less
Sauce Is Boss!

Product: Gawith Hoggarth & Co. Ennerdale Flake Bulk
Wow, what a game changer this one is! I absolutely love this stuff. In fact, I pretty much love everything I've tried from GH&Co. and I've tried a lot. Many years ago, when I first started smoking a pipe, I was looking for an aromatic but one tha... Read More
t actually tasted good so I did some research and decided to try Bob's Chocolate Flake. Well... at the time I was not ready for such a good blend and I wrote it off as being terrible. I was totally turned off by the weird essence that GH&Co are famous for but anyway, from that point on I steered clear of anything from this house and the more I heard about Lakeland tobaccos the more I was hesitant to try anything else from the genre. Fast forward about 6 years with a much more matured and developed palate, I decided to brave this genre again and see how it goes. I started with the most talked about Lakeland tobacco of all, Ennerdale Flake. Well, I was absolutely blown away! The essences added absolutely compliment the natural tobaccos and the florals just make this blend sing. This is absolutely brilliant blending and you will find nothing else like it. I have since fallen in love with Bob's Chocolate Flake along with at least a dozen other GH&Co blends. I'm not going to try to describe the flavors for ya, there are plenty of reviews that will tell you all about the grassy, stewed fruit and leathery notes, the toppings that sublimate the tobacco flavor and all that mumbo jumbo... those type of reviews do nothing for me and each description usually reads the same for each blend. What I will tell you is that you may love or hate this blend as it is obviously a polarizing tobacco but you will never know unless you try. I say start out with an ounce and go from there. This one is absolutely essential in my book.

Product: Gawith Hoggarth & Co. Ennerdale Flake Bulk
but I love it! Very delicious and classy with no bite. Aroma is the tiniest bit soapy but the best way I can describe the taste in mouth is of real flowers. Give this one a try and I doubt you will regret it... it's high quality.
Product: Gawith Hoggarth & Co. Ennerdale Flake Bulk
This is Grasmere light. A very nice floral flake with less of the flower punch of grasmere. I fully recommend this tobac to anyone that wants to try something different. A nice change of pace, and a definite palate cleanser.
Like Smoking a Rose Sachet
July 08, 2015
Product: Gawith Hoggarth & Co. Ennerdale Flake Bulk
This is my introduction to the Lakeland aromatic. Upon opening my package (I bought bulk) I was greeted with the aroma of a rose sachet, a wonderful but uncommon smell for me. The tobacco came in long size flakes about 8 inches in length. They have a... Read More
dark mottled appearance, and fine crystals were present throughout. I cut the flakes in thirds to fit in a mason jar, then proceeded to rub one out. The flakes are moist. I made the mistake of packing my cob immediately; I should have waited ten minutes at least, as I had to relight constantly. I was surprised at how floral the smoke is, like smoking the essence of roses. It's a flavor one encounters in Middle Eastern cuisine. The tobacco is good, but takes second or third seat on this first tasting. Not once did I experience burn. I understand why people don't like this, though I will be coming back to it. Ennerdale is not a bread and butter smoke, and I can see myself smoking it a few times each month in the Spring and Summer. The flavor lingers long after the bowl is finished, and it certainly requires a dedicated pipe. I find I enjoy the ghost when I load the bowl the next day with a Virginia. Highly recommended for those seeking adventure and the unusual. Read Less

Product: Gawith Hoggarth & Co. Ennerdale Flake Bulk
I had heard of Lakeland blends, so I thought I would give one a try. On the advice of other smokers, I selected this blend as a good representative of the Lakeland-style tobaccos. I was not disappointed. Upon opening the zip lock baggie, my first imp... Read More
ressions were, as I had been previously warned, of laundry soap, or rather the fragrances they add to it. Perfumy and floral, like being at the Laundromat when everyone is washing clothes. Not unpleasant, just unusual. I am guessing this is from the Lakeland Essence that I hear so much about. It was interesting. I rubbed it out and loaded it into one of my beloved Missouri Meerscham cob pipes, and fired up. It lit easily and well. and quickly settled down to a nice, medium bodied smoke, a bit lighter than Louisiana Flake (my favorite..), but still strong enough to have good flavor. The perfume room note faded to the background quickly, leaving a nice clean tobacco room note with just a hint of vanilla. The taste was medium sweet, and not perfumy at all. There were some mild top notes of vanilla and fruit, maybe raisins??? All-in-all, a very enjoyable smoke once I got used to it. I did catch a little wisp of bitterness, but when I cleaned my pipe, I noticed the filter was very nasty-looking, so I probably forgot to clean the pipe last time I smoked it. I would suggest starting with a clean filter the first time you smoke this, to give it a fair chance. It never bit, and burned all the way to the bottom with no re-lights, and left a fine grey ash. This is a fine smoke, especially if you are looking for something a little off the beaten path. It's not sweet enough to discourage anyone that doesn't like sweet tobaccos. I would recommend this blend to anyone, without reservations. I will probably keep some around for when I want a break from my Louisiana Flake. I gave it a 4.9 rating instead of a perfect 5 only because..well, I really love my Louisiana Flake. What can I say? Everyone can't be on top. Your mileage may vary..... Read Less

Doesn’t really smell like grandmas’ perfume, or soap. Does have a unique floral note and a pleasant taste in the pipe. It will ghost a pipe a little bit, not too much though. Best flavor is with a clean dedicated bowl and it improves with time.

m and nic is mild to medium. Flavoring is medium to strong, with notes of tonquin bean and mild citrus. The vanilla-almond-cinnamon-clove like tonquin bean begins strong and drops back to the middle ground where it remains. The citrus seemed to flash off after initial light and remained in the background afterwards. Taste is medium to full and very consistent, with notes of almond, vanilla, floral, spices, lemon grass, mildly savory, zesty orange peel, nutty, hay, wood, peaty vegetation, creamy rich, a semi-sweet lemony nutty lakeland background note, and a mildly peppery, almost smooth retro. Flavoring is leading with Virginia and Burley supporting. Room note is tolerable to strong, and aftertaste is great. Read Less

es had crystals all over the planks. Loading up a cob I lit it up and that fragrance filled the room. My wife even commented on how good it smelled. A few puffs into the bowl and the taste just wasn't there, not like fresh. So I set the pipe aside. A couple of hours later I re-lit and there it was, sweet full flavor. Fourteen years seems to have brought out some nice characteristics of the tobacco. Not as good as the 14 yr old Bob's Chocolate Flake but still very nice. Read Less

one's for you; if, as a former cigarette smoker, you delighted in the taste of smokes that had been housed in your wife's purse and had absorbed the flavor of perfume and cosmetics, this one's a keeper. If you've learned to disregard the initial soapy taste of some G&H blends because it seems to dissipate after the first hit and progresses to the flavor of tobacco, be warned: this stuff will retain that initial flavor clear to the bottom of the bowl. Your pipe will never be the same - experiment, if you must, with a corncob. Then, again, why not just lick the soap next time you wash up? Read Less
