Gawith Hoggarth & Co. - Bosun Cut Plug
Big-Time Lakeland
For the Lakeland lover. Clove mixes with traditional floral/perfume essence. Packs a bit of a punch, a great after dinner or late night smoke. Will linger in a pipe, distinct and enjoyable aftertaste.

Cornell & Diehl - Izmir Turkish
More than a blending component!
If you enjoy Oriental style tobaccos, you owe it to yourself to enjoy this one on its own. Smooth, buttery, semi-sweet, and faintly smoky-sour. Lots to savor in this one. Light and satisfying, a great option for your rotation or cellar.

Quality Small-Batch English
A heavy, refined English blend with a collection of subtle nuances. Brings to mind what C&D Constellation could be under the scrutiny of Jeremy Reeves. A great evening blend, perhaps after dinner with red wine or whiskey. Recommended if available again. Tillinghast would be pleased.

Gawith Hoggarth & Co. - Kendal Flake
Backseat Lakeland
A firm-flavored Va/Bur with Lakeland essence as a secondary detail. Sharp Virginia paired with a smooth, creamy Burley. Lakeland tastes are lighter than expected, but present. A great blend if Ennerdale is too much for your palate.

Gawith Hoggarth & Co. - Ennerdale Flake
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.

Kramer's - Father Dempsey
Smokey & Rustic
Latakia forward English with some rough edges. Has a deep complexity that is highlighted when smoked leisurely. Not top-shelf English, but a fantastic value and a satisfying blend to have on-hand. Recommended.

Cornell & Diehl - Dreams of Kadath 2oz
Decent but Deceiving
Beautifully presented plug, easy to cut, prepare, and pack. Tin note is complex with leanings towards grape, cigar humidor, and mulled wine/cider. Lights well, burns easy, and improves with some dry time. Taste is very cigar-like, sometimes ashy towards the end of the bowl. A nice change of pace but not something I would keep on-hand. Worth a try, however.
