Gawith, Hoggarth & Co. Kendal Gold Shag Vanilla

Kendal Gold is one of the shag-cut main bodies produced at Gawith, Hoggarth & Co.'s Kendal workshop in Cumbria. Its base is a fine golden-hued cut of flame-cured bright Virginia leaf; the producer states it uses no other tobacco type in this series, only cleanly cut Virginia. The Kendal Gold body is offered with numerous different flavorings, and Kendal Gold Shag Vanilla is this family's vanilla-flavored member. Vanilla is one of the most widely produced flavorings in the Kendal Gold series; it coats the bright Virginia's straw-like sweetness with a creamy layer. Since the shag cut toasts quickly, it calls for a slow draw and loose packing.
