I haven't noticed a difference between Golden Glow, Skiff Mixture and Perfection; which are the only three blends I've had pre and post merger.

Do you have to be so damned agreeable, Lazar. Come on, pick a side and and stick to it. Ha ha! :

There's that one guy out there thinking, "This Ennerdale doesn't taste as much like ass as it usually does. I bet it's rubbing off on some Samuel Gawith stuff." ::

Talk about having no memory. I have no recollection about discussing this issue a year ago. Early onset dementia is a bitch.
Tell me about it. I just went ahead and had the kids chip me, so I can just wonder around in the backyard and woods and enjoy being lost, and they can just track me with an APP.
This is still a relevant thread because there has been more and more people tasting the Lakeland pixie dust on Samuel Gawith blends, in that old thread I was the only one who had the experience so if anything it’s good to hear that I am not alone, it’s always good to hear that one is not crazy.... well, you know what I mean.
Is there any reason to believe that the company knows about the problem?
Altho it's doubtful, if the powers-that-be smoke scented tobacco, they may not have noticed.
After all, they apparently lacked the presence of mind to clean their equipment between product runs.

I saw you spit thAt pill out condorlover, and if you can’t throw that water fountain through the window, I’ll tell Nurse Ratchet!!
I once met a girl who I thought was Geranium. Turns out she was actually Austrian.
She thinks I'm a Moron, but I'm really a Presbyterian.

I have not detected any changes in FVF since the merger, but I think we will see some of what Harris mentions, in that, I could see a sentence in the description of an aged tin of FVF reading something like... tin is hand dated prior to merger, guaranteeing no Lakeland essence.
I agree certain specific people are constantly complaining about the scenting in Lakeland blends and usually about the "scenting" in the unscented blends. While most GH blends may scented to a certain extent, it's certainly not true of SG. There's no scenting in their unscented blends. And as someone who only smokes Lakelands I have bought many SG blends produced post merger and found no unwarranted scenting in blends where they don't belong. I have noticed a big change in the flavor of 1792 though. It's far less sweet and much more gingerbready now.
And I think it's worth noting that this entire thread isn't based on the op's personal experience but an old account of hawky' who claims there was scenting in his fvf but personally im skeptical. I think FVF always has had somewhat a soapy flavor too it.
