    How Long do Lakeland Toppings Last When Cellared?

    With a lighthearted note and smile, I hope you will find the person who used to apply the sauce. Beg them to return or at least pass on their skill of sauce application as it was brilliant!!!!

    How Long do Lakeland Toppings Last When Cellared?

    gawithhoggarth Please understand I am not trying to be rude or mean in any way. However, I have smoked 2013 era Ennerdale (still have a little) and the new Ennerdale sauce does NOT compare. Please, please, please, return my favorite smoke to the way it was. It is by no means my favorite as it is...

    Post-2015 Samuel Gawith, Bob Gregory’s Story

    By coincidence, on Friday I received 2 tins of KC flake from an online vendor. Date code of 08 318 (07-08-2021) and the contents were completely dry.....I'm not sure of the tins being used today, but those from that time period are worthless as far as maintaining their seal. IMO Gawith would...

    Who Does Good Work With Silver Bands on Meerschaum?

    Thanks George. Makes sense, compression, especially on a crack won't work. I had hoped it might have a chance to be saved. Oh well.

    Conniston Cut Plug?

    Was thinking of ordering some Conniston Cut plug. I am curious as to how it compares to Dark Flake or Dark Birdseye? I like both of these and Ennerdale as well and it sounds interesting from the reviews I have read. Just wondering if it was similar or totally different. Thanks.

    First Taste of War Horse Green

    No bubblegum taste when I smoke it. It does seem to benefit from a few days in an occasionally opened jar. I like the Red Much better than the Green, but the Green is not bad.

    Embarrassing Moments

    1989 me and my new bride were visiting Gatlinburg. We were walking through one of the shops and this young lady walks up beside me and takes hold of my left hand as she looked at various items. So I walked with her for a while, just holding her hand and not saying a word. My wife gave me a...

    Gawith, Hoggarth & Co. - Dark Bird's Eye

    I have some that has about 6 or 7 years age on it. It has turned almost black, has mellowed and is an absolutely wonderful strong smoke. Just picked up another bag to put in the cellar.

    Lane Limited Ready-Rubbed (Edgeworth)

    I do like the flavor of the Sutliff match. It is like smoking a chocolate bar. Unfortunately, even with drying, it is about as difficult as I would imagine keeping a chocolate bar lit would be.
