    Tobacco Globalism

    "It is possible that they are just the Distributor I guess." Not just possible, is exactly this and there are signed legal documents to this effect. And no, I am not posting copies here :) You'll just have to take my word for it. Kopp are distributors for Germany, just like Laudisi are for...

    Tobacco Globalism

    Yes we've looked at many options. But it would not be only a few pennies more per tin when you are looking at whole new packing lines, massive investment in new machinery, having to ensure packaging complies with track and trace and all sorts. Plus Square tins are part of our brand and we would...

    Tobacco Globalism

    I am not wasting my time addressing the tin issue again. It has been addressed and explained a hundred times. I stand by everything that I have said. I addressed this point: ""Samuel Gawith no longer attends the fair [Inter-Tabak] since Bob Gregory left. I read on PipesMagazine the following...

    Tobacco Globalism

    Thanks for the laugh this morning! And yes when I see BS and outright rumour and falsehoods I will call it out. I understand there will always be one or two that seem to think they know more about our business and company than we do. And who are not willing to accept the facts and truth. As...

    Tobacco Globalism

    Again more BS! 1) Kopp distribute for Gawith Hoggarth & Co in Germany, including the Samuel Gawith brand. They do not own or produce any tobacco for us and never have. 2) Bob Gregory left Gawith Hoggarth for reasons I am not going to go into here, along with the former managing director and a...

    G&H Doing Rattrays and McConnell?

    Old news, happened a while ago, must be coming up 2 years now.

    G&H Doing Rattrays and McConnell?

    Just people making up stuff as usual. Samuel Gawith is a brand of Gawith Hoggarth & Co and will remain so. Kopp distribute for us in Germany.

    G&H Doing Rattrays and McConnell?

    Yes of course Samuel Gawith is still made in our factory in Kendal. "There has been recent mention of K&K is that distribution or actual production?" Not sure what you asking? We are distributors as stated above.

    G&H Doing Rattrays and McConnell?

    We are the distributors of Rattrays and McConnell and Sutliffs in the UK.

    What Retired Blends Would you Bring Back?

    The Copycat comment was made in the sense that the new release of Brown Sugar was a copycat of the original release. It was not, it was simply a re-release.

    Trouble Contacting Synjeco

    Anything that was legally available to Synjeco is available to Laudisi. We are always looking to expand the range available in different countries, however flakes and plugs also take a long time to make and take up production time for anything else so can mean longer lead times.

    Trouble Contacting Synjeco

    You will not be able to buy any Gawith products from Synjeco unless very old stock or being purchased illegally from elsewhere as we no longer use Synjeco as a distributor. They owe us an awful lot of money so it is now going through legal processes. Revor Plug is only for sale in the UK. We...

    Brief GH Brown Flake Unscented Review

    News to us! Same factory, same machinery, same senior production staff and blenders for the last 30 odd years. Also those in the factory have and still all baffled by the "Lakeland Essence". This is not a concept we particularly came up with, it is something that sprung up from reviews etc. We...

    Brief GH Brown Flake Unscented Review

    No not changing blends. As with any hand made product there will be slight variations from batch to batch and of course from one leaf order to another.

    Hello From Sofia, Bulgaria

    Hi! I lived I Bulgaria for 14 years off and on. I was mostly based near Stara Zagora and Kazanluk but also spent time in Samakov. We are just working on opening a new distributor line in Bulgaria so hopefully will be able to progress that in the next couple of months and start getting Gawith...

    What Does Mold Smell Like?

    But it's "some" customers that prefer aged. It's also rather arrogant for those that age to have the belief that every consumer prefers aged tobacco and that they should be solely catered for.

    What Does Mold Smell Like?

    However, I would pretty much give the same reply if asked and have done. Exactly this.

    Where, oh Where, is the St. James Flake?

    Not at all, just a good excuse for civil servants to not go back to work properly!
