Great tobacco not so good in bulk
October 27, 2017
Product: Samuel Gawith Brown No. 4 250g
I love this tobacco its my everyday smoke. However the box version kind of sucks, I've bought 3 boxes so far and only one of them on non dried out tobacco. The other two were hard as rocks
Strong but smooth

This is the strongest tobacco I have ever smoked. That being said, I have smoked at least a couple of kilograms over the years. It does have a wonderful, earthy aroma and complex taste.
If you are going to smoke this start with a small bowl and mak... Read More
e sure you have some food in your stomach. If you are not used to the strength it will make you sick straight away.
Cutting the rope to make sure it burns well may take trial and error, but once you get it down you will find it stays lit nicely.
Please enjoy - and if you do not like it, please send it to me.
Cheers! Read Less
The Best Twist You Can Buy
December 05, 2016
Product: Samuel Gawith Brown No. 4 250g
I absolutely love this Twist. To me it still has a pipe tobacco character, opposed to a cigar. It smokes cool and has a decent amount of smoke out put. I'm a nicotine fiend and I find this to have the largest nic hit of any pipe tobacco (flake, twist... Read More
, plug, etc) that I've ever smoked. It's the only tobacco that I've ever niccupped on. It's smooth and I've never had bite from it. If I could only ever smoke one type from now until pipe smoking kills me... This would be it!!! Read Less

Well I do and I love this stuff! However I will say it does require a bit of prep work but that only builds the anticipation so don’t let it detract from the excellence of this blend. Cut with a steak knife into rounds don’t worry about jarring immed... Read More
iately it’s not necessary or recommend it can and should sit out for at least a week or 2 and be perfectly fine. Prior to smoking however you are going to want to further cut your pre made rounds into smokable shreds with your trusty steak knife microwave for 45 seconds in a coffee mug (it’s strange I know but trust me). Pull that sucker out of the microwave give that steaming mug a big wiff! and pack into preferably in a small briar pipe then have at it! Read Less
No Problems for Fast Puffing for Me
April 29, 2013
Product: Samuel Gawith Brown No. 4 Rope 50g
The nicotine is very strong here. That being said, I found with substantial drying and cutting coins - the taste is a nice straight-forward tobacco. Definitely worth the hassle of prepping the twist.
awesome!

Tin note of smoky barbeque, mildly sour, and mild tart fruit. The sticky, three shades of brown, 25/32-inch (20 mm) fat rope needs slicing into thin coins (with a razor or thin sharp knife) and rubbed out to get the fastest drying time. Burn is slow ... Read More
and requires numerous relights. The strength is medium to strong and nic is medium to strong. No flavoring detected. Taste is medium to full and mostly consistent, with complex notes of smoky wood, very earthy, lemon grass, slightly bitter cigar, floral, moderately spicy, a sweet roasted nut background note, and very peppery retro. It's like Dark fired Virginia is wrapped around more Dark fired Virginia and a small amount of dark air cured Indian burley spun into a rope. Room note is tolerable, and aftertaste is outstanding.

想来想去还是觉得有必要认真再写一下这款好草的评价，因为真的实在是很满意，非常对我口味。
口感，入口感觉得到的整个口腔的微微刺激，不是咬舌感，是整个口腔因为烟气浓烈而感受到的饱满浓烈的口感，嘴中的烟气尝起来有像烈火烧过的木头，微微🈶一些松油味，烟气微微的甜，但嘴中会回甘，会给带来甘甜感，而且是较明显且尝得出的甘甜感，烟气非常饱满，尝不到任何一点空洞寡淡的感觉
过鼻，点燃前半斗，烟气偏向于烈，有很少的刺激感，像是在吃一块烤肉，其实这款草给我最大的感受是像是在吃一块烤肉的感觉，特别是前半斗，... Read More
我想把这款草归为“肉类草”，花香水果类 fvf,1792,坚果类，艾斯酷多，三尼姑。不知道大家对这个归类有什么评价。到了中后端，过鼻微微的刺激感完全消失，过鼻伴随着很细微的松油味以及，或者说，烤薯类的感觉，烈的程度减小，浓依旧不改，丝滑了起来，到了后半斗或者说中段烧完，烟气有些像在松树林中的感觉，烟气的烈性收敛了很多，可是一点不寡淡，甜味在中段开始已经消失，雪茄草的味道在前段可以明显感受到，随着中后段开始，减弱至没有。
室韵，没点燃前酸臭味，非常难闻，点燃后也是酸味倒也不臭，但很烈，依然不好闻，伴随着类似于烤什么东西的味道（真不好闻没细品#(狂汗) 这并不重要）毕竟我抽烟斗遵循着室韵再好我也不会去往肺里吸的原则。所以建议，找个没人的地方抽。ps： 抽完烟斗都是臭的，酸臭味…
缺点，室韵肯定是一个，另一个是这款草真不好点燃，补火好多次，我下次再醒久一些，10-20分钟左右，估计会有很大改善，以及把烟丝切细切小，也会有帮助。所以，想感受烟气浓烈厚重，过瘾，的朋友一定是值得尝试的，因为这款草作为绳草来讲口感不光远胜于其它绳子，过鼻感受也一样，更重要的是它保留住了绳子浓烈的特点的同时，做到了口感过鼻的提升。当然，黄狗屎的好兄弟黑狗屎也快到了，尝过后再做个比较，所以很推荐有经验的朋友尝试这款草。
最后，我还是好奇哪个新手要是尝了这款草会给出什么评价，会不会因为这款草直接和烟斗说拜拜了#(哈哈)
最最后，发挥一下想象力，这款草给了我一种吃烤肉，烧木头，走在了松林中的感受，变化过程却像再驯服一匹烈马，暴躁逐渐到温顺。以及这款草我觉得当我最满意的第一应该是没什么问题，因为真的烟气口感过鼻的反馈真可以。当然，我是否最喜欢这款草，还待尝试更多后再做回答。期待黑狗屎与黄狗屎的比较。 Read Less

t right. I achieved this only on my third smoke session of this blend, after “The Great Gawith Smoke Session That Wasn’t” and a retry of the same bowl the following morning.
Admittedly, in my first session I packed the bowl just too tightly, but just as mistakenly, I packed it minutes after opening the tin for the first time. I expended almost all of the butane in my pipe lighter in a futile attempt to keep my meerschaum’s bowl lit. I soon put the pipe aside, and cut up another small section of the rope and let it dry overnight on my foyer’s “tobacco table.” My wife was struck by the strength of the drying tobacco’s aroma, something between pure, natural tobacco and barbecued beef brisket. She was standing about eight feet away in another hallway. Never before had she commented on the scent of any drying blend atop my table.
Early the next morning, despite sitting out overnight, my packed meerschaum didn’t burn that well in my second smoking session. It was only in my third session, when I then loosely packed the portion I’d dried overnight into a briar, that I fully experienced this blend in all of its old-fashioned Kendal glory.
Pipesters disagree on the complexity of this blend, some calling it magnificent (due to its rich flavor) but still one-dimensional. But all will testify to its sheer strength. It’s best puffed after a decent-sized meal and probably best after dinner—an evening smoke. Regardless, of all twist blends, this is the one that to me best celebrates that rope or twist tradition that only the English seem to keep alive.
That following morning after breakfast, that loosely packed bowl of dried-out twist burned better and I reached that pipester nirvana I’d sought. Retrohale at least once, feel it burn past your nasal cavities as it leaves your nostrils, and fully take in the flavor and it’s true scent.
And then you’ll find the reason this blend, at least in the tin form, sells out so soon after being posted on a vendor’s website.

Product: Samuel Gawith Brown No. 4 250g
일반연초가 된장국이라면 분명 이연초는 청국장이다. 진득하면서 묵직하게 올라오는 마치 시가의 향연과도 같다. 하지만 초보자들에게는 조심하라고 말하고 싶다. 와 ~맛있다...라고 하면서 동시에 니코틴펀치가 올수가 있으니까 말이다. 강한만큼 맛은 분명있다.

Product: Samuel Gawith Brown No. 4 Rope 50g
For me, the great problem with this rope tobacco, as well as with the "Black XX Rope" (and a few others), is that once you smoke these "true and essential" tobaccos, the rest of your cellar will be left bereft of your eyes and companionship. It will ... Read More
