I recently received a lovely Butz Choquin purchased from Ebay, and the seller included a surprise bonus - a sample little packet of Gawaith Hoggarth Ennerdale Flake. At first sniff I turned up my nose and thought, "this is an 'old man' tobacco". But I just tried a bowl and was very pleasantly surprised.
It turned out to be more of a sweeter aromatic. I liked the chocolatey and floral room notes, and the tobacco smoked cool and flavorful. In fact, I'm still tasting a reminiscent of the sweet flavor 30 minutes afterward.
I see in previous topics that the Ennerdale flake is categorized as a 'scented' rather than an 'aromatic'? Not sure what the difference is, but I like it. I also see that the Ennerdale leaves a notorious ghost in a pipe and should likely have its own dedicated pipe. Any other opinions?
