Jay, I've seen that, too, but is it from Gawith? I can't find that anywhere connected to the company itself, only retailers.

Poor Sam Gawith. They went to make an unflavored tobacco and then put "Lakeland" in the title.
If only they know how anathema that word is to many pipe smokers in the internet pipe community.

Yeah, that's the description I'm talking about but I don't remember where I read it.

I know, right. Not too good of a name there.

I think tonquin bean is like deer tongue: either you dig it, or you DON'T.
Interesting that you mentioned tonquin and deer tongue together, since they both get most of their flavor from their coumarin content.

I've often read about deertongue...even looked it up once...but have never knowingly tasted it. I should imagine if it has an affinity to tonquin flavourwise then I would avoid that too if I knew it to be in a blend.
Regards,
Jay.
