This is my first experience with Bright Virginias. I'm liking this better each time I smoke it!

G and H never seem to let the piper down. Delicious bright Virginia blend, a bit of lemony citrus, and almost, honey like sweetness. Very smooth and pleasant. All day long, this one.

As with everything the Gawith companies do, Kendal Gold and Kendal Gold Vintage Cut are magnificent. Sweet and bright, fragrant and flavorful, a joy for the smoker and those around him. It's light in both body and nicotine, so it can be enjoyed all day every day. Upon opening the bag, you will note right away the quality for which Gawith is known. While Brights and Goldens are princes of the Virginia varieties, they can be mistreated or mishandled, leading to some less than desireable outcomes. But Gawith knows exactly what they're doing. They'll never let you down....Read More

I’ve ordered this before from here and it was the best but, I ordered again and got an entirely different product, it’s not the same, it’s smells different and no flavor, just tongue bite. They need to check before bagging the bulk, this one is clearly not the same product

A very high end Virginia loaded with rich citrus taste once it has aged, very very good.

Package note of dry hay, cut grass and mild semi sweet fruit. Tobacco is a ribbon cut of yellowish tan, light brown and a little brown. Moisture content is ok, most pipe smokers will want to dry this out a bit. Burns moderately with few relights. The strength is mild to medium and nic is mild. No flavoring detected. Taste is medium and very consistent, with notes of sugar, hay, spices, bread, mild wood, floral, savory, tangy citrus, mild orange peel/zest, slightly acidic, a sweet grassy background note, and a moderately peppery retro. Room note is pleasant to tolerable, and aftertaste is great....Read More

This is the best bright I've ever smoked! There's something to be said about the UK's strict purity laws, if something this good comes out of it, I'm all for it

Update: With a little age on it, the cereal notes have receded, leaving a wonderful naturally sweet, golden toasted hay. Still excellent and getting better.

A very nice tobacco with hay notes bracketed by touches of grain and tanginess. Not as bright and citrus as Orlik, but has a bit more spring in its step than some other pure Virginias. (This liveliness is likely to mellow with age.) For my taste, it compares favorably with C&D Bright Virginia and Mac Baren No. 1 Virginia. Although a ribbon cut, it packs in a spongy way, probably due to the moisture level, which is consistent with a recently produced blend. Burns well, no bite if smoked sensibly. It's a simple, high-quality Virginia that offers a welcome alternative to the flake format. Plenty to enjoy here....Read More

纯粹的手卷草,比三帆香一些,v草的香甜更足,就是性价比差一点。可以多买点放个一两年
