Samuel Gawith Golden Glow

[docrameous]

Re

Taste wise, FVF has a candied stewed fruit taste where as golden glow has a citrus sweet flavor. I asked the Samuel Gawith reps at the 2008 Chicago pipe show how the tobacco blend differs. He stated it was the same combination of leaf, difference being in pressing & steaming time. From least to most time in press, Golden Glow, Best Brown Flake, Full Virginia Flake.

Very, very helpful! Thanks!

Golden Glow is on the radar. I’m waiting for a 50g tin to pop up though. My supplier only has the 250g in stock. Scared to pull the trigger on the big one in case it’s not for me. I love fvf though, so I’m sure I’d get some form of enjoyment out of this blend

not thinking about the trading power of almost 250g of Golden Glow, seriously it can be turned into other tobacco just by talking about how you're willing to trade it.

Does this blend produce a lot of sweetness?

Golden Glow has some sweetness but not as much as say Capstan Blue Flake. I have never smoked GG fresh only 8 plus years old.
