Just getting to the end of a tin of SG Grousemoor and still can't pin down the tast,seems a bit floral and a touch of peat in there.I like it but don't know why.I know it is one of your favourites Lawrence what is your opinion on it?

Morning Morlader,

The tin note is definitely Lemon Grass, but your confusion isn't uncommon.

Have you read my review here? Grousemoor

You'll have to scroll down.

I was new to posting there and we can't fix the ratings at this time.

I agree with you... Grousemoor is good stuff.

:puffy:

I tried Gousemoore a couple weeks ago and was very pleasantly surprised. The blend was very unlike the normal English blends I frequent, but it was a pleasant change. I really like this stuff and its subtle unique flavors. I will be buying this in bulk to have some tucked away and some to enjoy.

@marmal4de, yes its true....I'm an English smoker that finds myself confused and smoking Grousemoore in secret. I have the tins sent in non descriptive brown tins and brown paper packaging; trying to hide this affliction. Even my dogs have looked at me with concern in their eyes when we sit out in the shop and I put the blend in my pipe. I think I will go have a bowl in secret.

Just read a couple of reviews of this blend, would this be considered to have a "Lakeland" flavour/taste to it? Still unsure if I want to try something with a lakeland flavour to it after trying BCF.

Peaty, mossy, grassy, maybe a bit of sea kelp with an undercurrent of wildflowers. I have to thank Lawrence specifically for "coaxing" me to give this blend a shot. When I saw a few tins at my local B&M I picked one up. It was a blustery, rainy day when I cracked the tin. Initial whiff was "what the hell is this?". I had never smelled or seen a tobacco like it before. A yellow/green coarse cut with pieces that I could still see the leaf veins in. A little soggy and a scent of sea and field and something "else". I loaded and lit and have not looked back. This blend may not be for everyone but this is no Dutch style aromatic by any stretch. Purely English Lakeland. The perfect sea monster blend IMHO.

If you didn't like BCF, you probably wouldn't like Grousemoor either.

It is definitely a unique taste.....I caught a bit of lemon flavor the other day for a puff or two.

I can't resist chiming in as well. I was loading my old Stanwell Majestic with Grousemoor when I logged on here. Been smoking this for years and always enjoy it. People never seem to know what to make of it but like it when they try it. For those who haven't yet, dive in.
