Just came back from sitting outside - just to get outside! I grabbed my John Calich billiard and loaded her up with some Gawith Hoggarth Dark Virginia Cavendish. I've had this in a jar for quite a number of years; I had to look it up on Tobaccoreviews.com to get the gist of what I was in for.
It packs like a broken flake but lights up right away after the charring light and only needed one re-light near the bottom 1/3rd of the bowl. Very tasty stuff. You can taste a hint of the Lakeland type flavouring right off the bat, but it disappears and leaves you smoking the rest of the bowl that provides you with a wonderful, strong and solid Virigina smoke. The scent is very pleasant and the taste is that of a good Virginia - grassy, sweet, broad but light at the same time.
I'm not a very good reviewer as some of you other fellas, but man this was an enjoyable bowl. Can't wait to have another one tomorrow! Later on tonight at work I'll try to sneak in an aromatic.
Cheers! Stay home and stay safe out there!
