Have dustpan, will travel.  That has got to be the biggest chunk of crumble kake that I've ever seen Charlie  Sounds like you had a great trip and thanks for sharing these photo's of the GH factory with us Charlie... |

So that is the Lakeland essence - the stuff off the bottom of your shoes that lingers on the floor....

Great photos. A modest factory that produces outstanding tobacco.  |

Marvelous photos. Thank you for posting them. Some of my favorite tobacco. Kendal and the Lake District are an enchanted place.

Thanks for sharing those interesting photos. A great pity that we can't get Gawith & Hoggarth tobaccos here in Denmark.

Thanks for posting these pictures, trailboss ! I always wondered what it looked like in their factory. I don't think they offer tours...when others asked the photographer about it, he said that he was a distributor for them...I know that companies such as theirs closely guard their processes...surprised they allowed the pics. The machine that makes the rope tobacco sits in a far more compact work area than I would have imagined...the spray bottle nearby, I wonder if it is plain water or ?  |

Great pics from an old time nostalgic tobacco producer. Probably been using that machinery for 100 years. The world would be a worse place without their dark fired stuff.  |

That guy must have felt like Charlie Bucket after winning the golden ticket.
Next time somebody criticizes a blend for being "floor sweepings" I'm going to point them to this thread. Apparently some of my best tobacco friends are floor sweepings!
