The Germains Full Latakia is made using Cyprian Latakia leaf with the usual distinctive leathery, tarry odour accompanied by a characterful smokey flavour, which is due to a long curing process over smokey fires.

Germains have sufficiently moistened the tobacco to provide a clean cool smoke.

Latakia is the Marmite of the tobacco world, you will either love it or hate it.
It is usually added to a blend in small proportions to add extra character and complexity to a blend, it is not generally smoked pure by even the most avid Latakia enthusiasts.

Originally from the stable of Dunhill tobaccos, discontinued in 2018, and now happily relaunched under the house of Peterson. Nightcap is a slow long lasting smoke, contains Virginia, Latakia and perique. A strong taste with a mild flavour. 

Gawith Hoggarth's American CV Blend (Cherry & Vanilla) is a wonderfully flavoured mix of Cavendish and Burley tobaccos lightly cased and topped with cherry and vanilla flavours. It reminds of an ice cream cone with cherry sauce and a light sprinkling of nuts. The base tobaccos work harmoniously with the added flavouring and can be tasted through it, though this blend can be enjoyed while relaxing and dreaming of a sunny seaside.

Opening the packet reveals coarse cut rich black ribbons entwining with chestnut and golden brown strands. The aroma is sweet and fruity, of the added flavours but you can also make out the base tobacco notes too. It's easy to pack into the bowl and burns evenly, thoroughly and gives a long, cool smoke.

The luxury tobacco composition that is prepared to produce these rolls of tobacco is based on high quality, carefully selected ripe Virginia tobacco, finished with some traditional cured Perique and Cavendish tobacco. Whilst we believe the recipe is very close to a recently discontinued Navy Rolls. We have purposely avoided the same 'look' by finishing the roll with a 'Cavendish Bulls Eye' rather than spread this unique tobacco throughout the mixture.This will allow the pipe smoker to sprinkle and mix the tobacco to satisfy their own taste.

The Samuel Gawith Grousemoor is for lovers of pure Virginias. Created in the heart of Lakeland, using the finest Virginia leaves that Samuel Gawith are renowned for which has been top dressed with the infamous floral Lakeland flavouring. The smell of the tobacco is almost that of a flavored tobacco. When it's burning it produces a very sweet aroma at the beginning and then dissipates into a less evident, and yet pleasant, aroma. The taste is also very sweet, without being irritatingly so. Highly recommended if you're after a traditional British Virginia that is serious and yet sweet.
