Tobaccos only available in UK?
Sorry my bad, Brown Number 4 (and another) not listed under the long list of twists on the export list, but under SG tins. So yes there are 2 SG twists produced and sold in tins. Tobaccoreviews.com is just a review site, it should not be taken as gospel. We are not editing anything on it or...- gawithhoggarth

Think its STG? Not England. Don't think there are any other actual pipe tobacco manufacturers in England except us.- gawithhoggarth

Tobaccos only available in UK?
I cannot comment on the other twists. But on the ones that state made by Kendal manufacturers for Synjeco (Greedodd and Holker) I can categorically say these are not made in our factory under this name or any agreement. And no one is aware that they ever were. And are certainly not now nor...- gawithhoggarth

Tobaccos only available in UK?
We suspect the twists are just our ropes and then given a different name and sold as a "special" when actually they are the same as being sold elsewhere (from what we can identify by pictures as we do not have the actual product). But nothing is being made at the factory under these names. I...- gawithhoggarth

Unlikely as we have no idea what these products are and having asked around no one can ever remember making such products especially for Synjeco and some of these guys have worked for us for 30 to 40 years. They have never heard of this Holker Twist or Bad Nun.- gawithhoggarth

Big news for EU: Cornell & Diehl
Its not that easy to just find a distributor, they need to be able to bond the tobacco, deal with all the import paperwork and tobacco registrations, have a good understanding of what the packaging and health warning regulations are for their country etc and have a good network of shops and...- gawithhoggarth

Historic tobacco blends?
When GH moved from Lowther Street to the current premises some of the machinery moved, but some of it is still in the old factory. When SG was bought by GH again some machinery moved, but the old mill machinery was I believe sold to a collector or museum in Holland but nobody seems to know much...- gawithhoggarth

Historic tobacco blends?
True but then the dates are a bit misleading as in 1792 it was technically Harrison & Brocklebank and there was no [Samuel] Gawith involved until around 1841 when he married into the family. Then it became Brocklebank and Gawith and it was not until a few years later it became Samuel Gawith's...- gawithhoggarth

Historic tobacco blends?
Samuel Gawith is no longer an independent company and is just a brand of Gawith Hoggarth so not sure it can be included in the list.- gawithhoggarth

Tobaccos only available in UK?
Brown Sugar made for Sutliff, originally done for the DanishPipeShop. IF SG did use to make these under agreement with a particular tobacconist........ and they are not just blends made by the tobacconist and sold under our 'banner'. The problem is we don't know what is in these blends. We get...- gawithhoggarth

Tobaccos only available in UK?
These may have been made especially for Synjeco before we took over Samuel Gawith and maybe continued for a short while afterwards but we do not currently do (with maybe one exception) specialist blends for tobacconists as we simply do not have the capacity to do this and it is not cost...- gawithhoggarth

Tobaccos only available in UK?
I am well aware of what Synjeco list as they are a customer of ours. We do not make a Holker twist specifically for a tobacconist. It may have been made in the past under some former agreement with old management but is not made any more.- gawithhoggarth

Tobaccos only available in UK?
We do not produce a twist called Holker. I am aware there are various tobaccos and blends being sold under our 'name' and in our packaging but these are not being made by us under this as advertised. It might be these are our tobaccos being renamed or altered and then sold in our packaging...- gawithhoggarth
