Samuel Gawith: Full Virginia Flake 250g Pipe Tobacco

Full body, great dark bread taste with delightful citrusy notes towards the end of the bowl. 10/10 great tobacco.

Ok for me , I love Virginias but something is missing for me in this one . It’s not as sweet as I would like it and the tin note is not giving me what I was looking for I really enjoy Amphora straight Virginia and was looking for a substitute since that’s gone . So for me it won’t be on my rotation....Read More

it was a legend and now it is on sale

It is an excellent tobacco with one flaw: it doesn't stay lit. You need to relight it many times. I don't know why even it is quite or sufficiently dry. Maybe, with a few more years it gets better!

Get up on a summer day to fresh baked bread a little toasty and heavily buttered.....now go eat in a nice clean hay pile in the sunshine. Stay away from this one I'll take care of it for you

My favourite Virginia is really fantastic; it smokes slowly and easily and is a classic for me.

This tobacco is one of the best works of Samuel Gawith. I would like to immediately note that my tin is old, produced in December 2020, i.e. He's practically three years old. The taste is richly sweet, quite strong. The flakes are very dark and difficult to crumble; they require additional drying after cutting. I would call him very harmonious, he loves cold smoking. And in general, it’s hard to tell others about the legend!...Read More

It’s almost impossible to get even with email notifications. I’m not even going to try anymore. Very disappointed in this companies ability to produce a product.

The honey for A and the poison for B. Such a pipe tobacco that many people love and hate it. Those who love it regard it as their first choice, while those who cannot understand it sneer. Smoking this tobacco requires extremely high requirements for kneading, rubbing, shaping, pipe data, pipe techniques, environmental temperature and humidity, and personal smoking status. Such a delicate tobacco has never lacked loyal fans. Rub thoroughly, wake up thoroughly, use the right pipe, ignite it and it will almost instantly produce sweetness and fragrance. After being fully burned, a unique aroma will follow, and the overall flavor is varied and can only be understood, difficult to express in words. After aging, the sweet and fragrant taste becomes increasingly mellow, unparalleled. How good is it? There are so many old smokers who have a personal inventory of over a hundred boxes. Although the quality of the original grass has been declining in recent years, it has not affected its important position in the minds of a large number of fans....Read More

I’ve not been able to get my hands on this tobacco for quite some time but boy is it tasty. If I was to compare this to coffee, this would be a french roast. The flavors are so dark and malty. It’s also one of the few flakes that I’ve smoked where there was a noticeable decline in flavor when rubbed out. Give it about half an hour of dry time, and fold and stuff this bad boy for a malty almost molasses smoke. I usually don’t bother to fold and stuff a flake, but this one just isn’t the same rubbed out, at least not to me. Also, it almost needs to be crispy dry, otherwise I have a hard time keeping it lit. It requires a bit of work but the payoff is delightful....Read More
