Gawith Hoggarth Balkan Mixture Pipe Tobacco - 10g Sample

Gawith Hoggarth's Balkan Mixture is a charming blend of Latakia, Virginia and Oriental leaves. There is no doubt about the high quality of tobaccos used and their expertly blended ratios. First off there's the Latakia which gives this mixture its darker colours and dominant smoky aroma. Whereas many Latakia blends can be a little salty or acerbic in nature, this Latakia is smooth and rounded while still being full of flavour. The Virginias are sweet, supporting the Latakia, giving the blend stability. The Orientals are aromatic and give the blend a subtle spice and creaminess.

The shag-like ready rubbed strands are varying shades of brown comprising of almost yellow to golden brown, hazelnut and nearly black. This mixture is easy to load into a pipe and catches the flame with ease. It burns cool with plentiful smoke though it's gentle on the tongue. This could easily be an all day, every day smoke or one you treasure to lift your spirits on a cold, damp day.
