Burley Forward

Very good smoke. Jarred mine for 2 years first. Had a nice vinegar aroma developing from the Virginias. The smoke was Burley forward. Recommended!

Very bitey.

First off, I love the cut I've never had anything that was easier to pack than this blend. The flavor wasn't terrible either when I could taste it. My problem with this baccy is that it friend the inside of my mouth. It physically felt like I had gargled hot grease. For now she gets a 2 🌟 I'll re visit my cellared stuff in a couple years and rewright a new review when it gets some age on it. But straight out of the tobaccanist this is one painful blend....Read More

Glad I ordered this. I like the shag cut to begin with, and secondly, the nutty taste is what I really relish about this newer blend.

Not Bad

Although all three other reviews are pretty accurate I would give the overall nod to Robert B. Lemmon and walnut. The flavors are light and come out best when lightly sipped. Sipping also required for sake of tongue as it will bite if smoked to hard. Debatable if I would order again, but not sorry for the experience. A fresh mix of C&D Bright VA and their burly ribbon cut, however, would get you the same taste if not a bit stronger on the lemon for less bucks....Read More

Smooth mild Nutty

This moist shag cut is smooth and a little light compared to many smokes and easily stays lit in my larger bowl at delivered moisture. I think the non-smokers around me like the light nutty aroma as much as I do the taste and after-taste. When opening the pouch, there's not much of a smell punching at people. It's not harsh or heavy flavored. To me, it's like a cool drink of water on a hot day on 10 minute break. I'm here to order a larger quantity....Read More

Smooth & Nutty
September 19, 2017

Product: Gawith Hoggarth & Co. North Star Bulk
North Star is my favorite all-day smoke. Notes of lemongrass on the roof of my mouth and a rich walnut flavor around my tongue with just enough virginia to leave a sweet taste on my lips. It's light and smooth but still packs a nice vitamin-N punch. I prefer the shag cut and I most enjoy smoking it around 24%. Fresh out of the bag it's usually around 40% but only takes a short time to dry out a bit. I find it somewhat bitter when it drys out below 20% so I'm glad it's packaged damp. I'm really pleased that Smokingpipes.com is keeping it in stock!...Read More
