Samuel Gawith Finest Kendal Twist Black XX

Finest Kendal Twist Black XX is the product of the rope-twisting tradition Samuel Gawith continues in Kendal. Dark Virginia leaf is tightly twisted into rope, with no casing applied; it is listed in catalogs in the Virginia family under rope cut. Thin coins cut from the rope are crumbled and aired before packing; the burn is finicky and requires a very slow smoke. Nicotine level is very high according to records, the smoke cool and the tobacco flavor full.
