Sam Gawith Burnt Ends

[kanaia]

Samuel Gawith's Burnt Ends flake is a unique take on a Full Virginia flake that marries together a variety of Virginia tobaccos via heat compression. What results is a dense and dark flake that captures the deeper, richer notes of an aged Full Virginia mixture without needing to be aged and offers tasting notes of tangy caramelized citrus, earthy, hay, and a touch of spice. JimInks you go first.

Not sure if I’ll check this out but it’s sure got me wanting to go to my local bbq place.

Just picked up a Costco brisket this morning for new years, that's what I was thinking too. ODF is pretty close to what I'd call a burnt ends tobacco.

I know what the pictures on the box is about but what a crazy scene when you think about it. That's a lot of activity in a small area.

I was thinking the same thing.

Just tried FVF for the first time in the past week and loved it, so this sounds like heaven!

 

[kcghost]

With it being combination of FVF and other things. Might be interesting to hard core Virginia lovers.

If it lasts to the 29th I might try to grab some!

I think I’m going to pass on this one. Not because I don’t love FVF or dark virginias, but its just too much leaf to commit to without knowing more about it.

I’d love to read a review from an intrepid early buyer or something, but this will probably sell out within an hour and leave cautious nitwits like me in the dust.

I’m curious if it’s essentially “Pensioners Mixture” with a new name that’s more appealing to the American market: updating via yoast - https://www.tobaccoreviews.com/blend/9346/samuel-gawith-pensioners-mixture-fvf-bbf-off-cuts/

No. Not at all. Pensioner's Mix is a Gawith Hoggarth blend, not a Samuel Gawith blend. And it is a mixture of all the bits and pieces from manufacturing. Burnt Ends is just based on FVF.

When does this release?

 

[gawithhoggarth]

I think Laudisi's post said today but you'd need to check with them.

Cool. Thanks for the heads up

It will be interesting to evaluate how a difference in process on the same substrate (current FVF) changes the product.

I haven't written a review in a long time but I think this presents an interesting context from a technical perspective, especially being a long-time smoker of FVF.

Are we ready for a site crash?

Looking forward to reading your evaluation!

Smokingpipes has crashed with the rush of sales. I was returning my cart from Paypal and it hung.
