    New Gawith Releases (in US) Confusion

    No one is aniseed (already in production) and one is liquorice (new)

    New Gawith Releases (in US) Confusion

    North Star is not sold as a liquorice flavoured tobacco. It just has a slight hint. We used to do a liquorice tobacco but it did not sell well so was discontinued. However after various requests we have brought back liquorice twist.

    Review of SG Cannon Plug - A Lakeland Legend

    Given you have already pointed out my inability to read, maybe you could try writing in proper English and not this weird slang - I mean who does that anyway! As we say over this side of the pond - if you can't take it, don't dish it out! "If you can’t take a little criticism without gettin'...

    Review of SG Cannon Plug - A Lakeland Legend

    " However, you didn’t manage to mess up everything" Must try harder LOL! Guess if blends are only relatively smokeable you will not be that bothered either way. "It may be beneficial to all if that list were made public." Beneficial maybe to some on here but not beneficial to our...

    Review of SG Cannon Plug - A Lakeland Legend

    Nothing is 'quietly' discontinued. It is stated openly and as it happens to all distributors. Why would I need to confirm the status of these particular blends? In any case won't really matter to you what we continue to make or not, as you think pretty much all the tobacco we produce now is...

    Review of SG Cannon Plug - A Lakeland Legend

    It's available to any country. What is imported depends on what the distributor decides to order and that can vary from order to order.

    And you won't unless you are a UK registered retailer or wholesaler or a distributor.

    Review of SG Cannon Plug - A Lakeland Legend

    RB plug was discontinued quite a while ago. And no we do not make batches of something if someone orders enough. Every tobacco produced has to be registered, paid to be so and paid to be kept so. We have to do this in the UK to manufacture it and then in many countries, the distributor there...

    Gawith Hoggarth Extra S Brown Pigtail Twist

    Without the oil and cooking, it is just brown twist!

    There are numerous duty free border zones in this region. Bit like what you used to have in Europe between countries, where you exit one country and before you go into the other, there is a border zone. And also at ports, similar to airport duty free areas,

    No. It was done through a video call though so not sure if that effects sound.

    Review of GH Rum Twist - From Greatness To Mediocrity

    It is available for export but if it is not grandfathered under FDA it won't be allowed and as far as I know it was never ordered and sold in the States before the deadline so sorry can't see it being made available.

    Review of GH Rum Twist - From Greatness To Mediocrity

    It was a very very small percentage that used to get recycled back into the same blend. Pretty much all the left over useable pipe tobacco went into pensioners mix, a cheaper offering we did initially for the UK market and still do. This by its very nature constantly changes. But as we now make...

    Review of GH Rum Twist - From Greatness To Mediocrity

    Never said they were anything different - in fact as Smoking Pipes described them, they are 'the burnt ends' of the cake. Sold for less than the actual flake so not being sold as a premium product. Being sold as exactly what they are. No one has ever said any different and they were literally...

    Review of GH Rum Twist - From Greatness To Mediocrity

    Well I am not flogging anything in America. I just sell to an importer there. I doubt the very small percentage that used to go back into the same blend made any difference, it was broken down and mixed back in before the cakes were made. Most went into pensioner's mix.

    Review of GH Rum Twist - From Greatness To Mediocrity

    er yeah...the steam jacket presses went out when electric became more available and affordable so there was no need for a massive fire in the basement with a chimney to produce the steam!!! But I very much doubt you were smoking our tobacco back then!

    Review of GH Rum Twist - From Greatness To Mediocrity

    lol ben waiting with baited breathe for another of these 'fine' reviews....although they are getting a little samey now, bit too much copy and paste going on...... would love to know, 'where when pressed they admitted changing the cooking equipment' came from! you try getting new tobacco...
