Just found your channel, new to pipe smoking. Thank you for the channel

[@amanrelaxes]

Thanks for watching-and welcome!

Way to take one for the team!!😂 I've been gone for pipe smoking for almost 9yrs but i have kept my celler. Everything i have is at least 7 to 8 years old. Or at least since 2016. Not sure if i want to keep or sell it yet.....great video!

[@amanrelaxes]

That's awesome! I've got a lot of nice 3-year-old stuff. I've been at it 15 years, but I only recently started cellaring.

Thankfully I’m one of those that enjoy the Lakeland blends, so much so I don’t even order the unscented Gawith Hoggarth anymore. Just ordered a half pound of Fire Dance Flake. Love the stuff. I don’t smoke many aromatics but the tobacco used by Samuel Gawith and Gawith Hoggarth are fantastic with great flavor. Just goes to show we all have different tastes. As far as the soap taste goes, someone postulated that maybe it’s the same gene that causes some to taste soap when eating cilantro.

[@amanrelaxes]

Can't be-I love cilantro!

[@EllenJohn4]

Found this hilarious as I just took a loaf of einkorn sourdough out of the oven! Hope your bread turns out well!

[@amanrelaxes]

It did! Thanks.

[@wstimo]

Its a lakeland, beautiful tobacco

[@amanrelaxes]

It is-clearly not my jam though.

[@markrough5176]

Oh yeah, I should have mentioned the Lakeland essence. Sorry about that. Totally fine, though. That may be the funniest review you've done.

[@amanrelaxes]

Thanks for understanding. It was a shocker, but I also wanted to try a Lakeland blend at some point.

[@markrough5176]

@amanrelaxes well... now you know. Meanwhile, I trying to work my way up to trying Boswell's Northwoods. My god, the tin smells like a forest fire.

[@amanrelaxes]

@@markrough5176 Lol. I love that stuff. Tastes like burnt marshmallows.

[@ParsimoniousPiper]

Funny how palates are so different. I don’t care for sweet aromatics, but liked this one. If the Lakeland put you off, you definitely won’t like Ennerdale. BCF barely has any Lakeland essence by comparison.

[@amanrelaxes]

Yeah, I'm still just staring at it in fear. lol.

[@SmokeSnacks]

if you don't like the ennerdale katie will always take it off your hands buddy. some with the chocolate flake buddy. thanks for giving it a go.

[@amanrelaxes]

You guys can have it all! Next time we meet up for sure.

[@TonikQL]

Oh boy... Only do Ennerdale if you want your audience to watch you suffer through it for the entertainment. I have tried over 100 blends since I picked up this hobby and there's only two I've thrown out: Ennerdale and Cult Blood Red Moon.

[@amanrelaxes]

We'll see what happens, lol. Curiously, I actually like Blood Red Moon, though in a very different way from my blends that actually taste like tobacco.

[@Curt_Kobain]

I have 3 friends that have hated this tobacco. They couldn’t get past the Lakeland Essence. For some reason I love it. From the first try I was hooked. The tobacco can bite me so I dry it out a lot. But for me it’s a great match.

[@amanrelaxes]

You're not the only one. Seems to be one of those love or hate situations.

[@LukeEdwards-x8c]

I love the Gawith Full Virginia Flake it’s legendary and no Lakeland floral topping 😊 have to say the Lakeland florals are very much marmite I am not a fan

[@TheGentlemanScholar]

Glad the bread didn't taste like the tobacco... 6:54

[@amanrelaxes]

😄 Yeah, it was great.

[@paesanopiper]

At least you know Lakelands aren't for you now 😂😂😂. Maybe you can find an enemy to dump that Ennerdale on.
