Gawith, Hoggarth & Co. Curly Cut Sliced

Curly Cut consists of round medallions obtained by rolling twisted rope tobacco, pressing it, and then slicing it. Unlike ropes made entirely of dark leaf, this roll uses light-colored Virginia as the outer wrap; this both makes the tobacco milder and creates a look of light and dark rings in the slice. The medallions are packed by rubbing them out and spreading them in the palm. It carries an unflavored Virginia character: a bready, sweet base with a measured smokiness from the fire-cured leaf.
