Thank you! I'll be here all week.
Smoking some Dark Plug right now actually, though I decided to mix in some BCA so I could pack a bigger bowl and not kill myself. Not a bad combo at all.

It looks like every other STG plug, but smells great. Lots of Dark Fired.
It rained here tonight, so all the chairs out on the deck are soaking wet. I'll spark up a bowl tomorrow.

So here's my take on Gawith Hoggarth Dark Plug (Unscented)
It's definitely scented, but not with a traditional Lakeland. More of a men's cologne. Lightly scented though, and I like it. The tobacco aroma/flavor still comes through as the dominant character. Lots of Dark Fired and air cured burley. Not getting much Virginia. Has a nic hit like an aborigines armpit.

That's how Perique was first done! Aborigines in Louisiana stuffed their armpits with whatever tobacco was around, to ward off mosquitoes. The resultant tobacco after a week was scented and strong!! Then they started stuffing hollow logs and alligators with it and the rest is history.

The more I smoke Dark Plug the more I like it. Just had another bowl tonight, and this time I felt the nic hit a bit more. Just put the pipe down and came back about 1 hour and 1 scotch later. Now I get why they say tobacco is addicting! I - Just - Have - To - Have - It!! :twisted:
