Welcome to the Patch. While I've not smoked many GH blends, I've been a big fan over many years of Sam Gawith blends, which I understand are included under your umbrella. Unfortunately availability in the States has been inconsistent. But I do certainly enjoy them and would like to see them more readily available here. 1792, Balkan, Best Brown, Black Forest, Squadron Leader and so on. Glad to see you posting ion the Briar Patch.

Welcome from Michigan, Rachel! There are a number of GH/SG blends I enjoy (the unscented/barely-scented). Looking forward to hearing about all things related to your company. I've got some Best Brown #2 and Bob's Chocolate prepped for smoking today!

Welcome from a cold and snow-blanketed Chicago. GH is a legend here, of course. I'm happy to hear you are carrying on the family's work.

Hello Rachel, and excellent to have you join here! Gawith Hoggarth along with C&D here in the states are my favorite tobaccos. Just purchased about three pounds of Gawith Hoggarth tobaccos via SmokingPipes as soon as it was restocked. I would love to hear direct company news and updates on anything at all that you can provide to us and hope that you stay and enjoy the forums!

Hello from a dry and warm climate, and exceptionally hospitable. Our tobacconist stocks Gawith and Hoggarth blends, the pipe club members are big fans of what your family has produced. If you and Chris can find the time we would love to have you visit, and the southwestern food will knock your socks off along with the great beers and tequila's that abound. We have pretty decent scenery too!   |

Can’t say as I have Ron, millions would disagree with you about the “ “dirty hole”, majestic nature of monument valley, lush alpine meadows of on the Mogollon Rim….but variety is indeed the spice of life.
Something you know nothing about living in Texas… been there!

Greetings from the US, Rachel. I've always been a fan of Brown Irish X (or whatever it's properly called). Wish your blends were easier to get here--seems like they sell out as soon as I get the notice they're in stock. Got lucky years ago and bought a huge coil BIX, so I'm all set for the end of the world.

Hello from a rather cold and dreary Michigan, US Rachel,
Although today has been the nicest day here since last fall. GH and SG tobaccos are the most well represented tobaccos in my cellar and I smoke them daily. I have Whisky Twist in my pipe right now. I love so many of the tobaccos you produce, especially the stronger, heavily scented/floral ones.
PS:
I've been out of Cannon Plug for a while now, if you ever make more be sure I will be buying it. Also, your tobaccos are always in short supply here, but if you could send some more Rum Twist, I would appreciate it. For that matter, SEND MORE OF EVERYTHING!!!
Warmest regards,
Ted
