Gawith & Hoggarth Ennerdale Flake

Impressions on this G & H favorite.

[@dmp2000uk]

Just discovered this review, great stuff chaps. Love the channel! Living near the Lake District I felt obliged to show some loyalty to the clan and buy a tin, and it did not disappoint. I have a fondness for Condor long cut for personal reasons but Ennerdale is my guilty secret ! P.S. Ennerdale is a dale (valley) in the English Lake District and is one of the few which doesn’t actually contain a lake. There is though the ruins of an old Roman fort from 2000 years ago and also one of the steepest passes in the country. Quite an enchanting little place. Great channel, great comments. Keep going.

[@PipesTobaccoWhiskey]

Thank you so much for the bit of history!! Cheers!

[@jmsharron1983]

My list of tobaccos to try is growing faster than I can keep up with, largely due to this channel. Thanks for all the great content, and for keeping me busy for a long time!!

[@PipesTobaccoWhiskey]

Have fun!

This is a delicious blend. I was apprehensive of Lakeland Blends for the longest time. I’m Sold! I totally get it now. Spot on review. 👍

[@PipesTobaccoWhiskey]

Thanks!!

[@claytonbigsby423]

I really enjoy y'alls videos.. Thanks for the knowledge

[@PipesTobaccoWhiskey]

Thanks for watching!

[@peterpiper7094]

Just cut the grass and smoke this blend it goes hand in hand we call it the gardener smoke 😂😂😂

[@PipesTobaccoWhiskey]

😂

[@budthecyborg4575]

In my opinion Ennerdale is one of the most full flavoured blends on the market. The sweetness lasts all the way to the end of the bowl better than any other blend.

[@PipesTobaccoWhiskey]

It’s a good one for sure!

[@EricBryan]

Great review! I just tried Ennerdale recently and I couldn’t agree more with the tea taste. I like your idea of getting some vigorous discussion going. A topic I think could be interesting would be a discussion on pipe selfies in the online pipe groups. Some find them annoying, some think they’re great. Not sure if that’s the direction you want to go, but it seems to be a polarizing topic. Looking forward to your new segment!

[@PipesTobaccoWhiskey]

Thanks for the suggestion. That might be a good one to use!

[@azhawk516]

Due to the limited availability I have not been able to try any of the GH or SG blends. The only blend I have been able to try with Lakeland essence is the GLPease Stonehenge flake which I really like. I am looking forward to trying some of the Lakeland blends.

[@PipesTobaccoWhiskey]

I am becoming a fan, as well.

[@pickingandpiping]

Thanks for the review. Definitely want to try some when I can get my hands on it. Really like the Lakeland essence of St. Bruno. You should try that one as well.

[@PipesTobaccoWhiskey]

Sounds interesting...

[@SmokingCardboard]

Love the idea. Looking forward to it! Have a great week

[@PipesTobaccoWhiskey]

You too!

[@turbotinman5448]

I think the "Let's Ash it out!" idea is awesome! Just as long as any remaining contention from the discussion gets dumped with the ash and everyone parts as friends! Side note: I had my mouth washed out with soap on a number of occasions as a kid and you just hoped that the bar didn't scrape on your teeth! Maybe that's why I'm a little hesitant to embrace the Lakeland blends, but I'll give Ennerdale a shot!

[@PipesTobaccoWhiskey]

I like that thought...I’ll share it with the boys. Thanks

[@challengerdart3731]

Excellent, excellent video guys. Thanks a lot. Love to see your tobacco reviews, it´is so precisely. Have a great week.

[@PipesTobaccoWhiskey]

You, too. Thanks

[@kurtisdennis3309]

Bergamot is the dominate flavor in Earl Grey tea and it's my favorite hot tea to drink. It goes well with tobaccos that don't have to heavy a flavoring I find.

[@PipesTobaccoWhiskey]

Nice.

[@kirkfromflorida1088]

Never tried that stuff. But I always great to see you. Always good videos. God bless you guys. Your friend Kirk

[@PipesTobaccoWhiskey]

Thanks , Kirk. Stay safe!

[@KarlMaldensNose]

Rose geranium essential oil - not rose water- is the floral aspect of Ennerdale, and of many other GH&Co. blends. It’s a flowering plant unto itself, different than rose and geranium individually.

[@PipesTobaccoWhiskey]

👍

[@bigbearseeds1551]

how do fellas luke here from the uk. Ennerdale is best with earl grey tea and dried for 5 hours. rubbed out until its almost dust then packed extremely light. smoked very very slow and it tastes exactly as it smells, turkish delight. the Virginias in this blend tend to sour quick so its best to make sure to pack this blend lightly and make sure the bottom of the bowl is rubbed out more than the top. when its aged it is the best aromatic ever crafted imho

[@PipesTobaccoWhiskey]

Thanks for that! Cheers!

[@buddymc]

Ennerdale is one of my favorite G&H tobacco blends, the others being Bob's Chocolate flake and Kendall Flake. I've got some cellared from 2010. Still as aromatic as the day it was bought. Good review.

[@PipesTobaccoWhiskey]

Good to hear from you. Hope all is well.

[@buddymc]

@@PipesTobaccoWhiskey Been so busy with putting out the garden. I'm so far behind on watching the videos, but I'll catch up! Thanks for the note.

[@buddymc]

didn't realize I was unsubscribed!

[@JS-pk5wt]

Reminds me of earl Grey tea with an extra flavour of citrus. It's one of my favourite blends.

[@PipesTobaccoWhiskey]

👍

[@tomsmith5456]

Yep, a cup of Yorkshire brand Tea very popular here in England sweetened with honey and a dash or two of milk goes extremely well with any pipe tobacco of your choice..And of course a shot of peaty Scotch to follow..Six dollars an ounce, oh don’t , we pay twice that much in tax here ..Oh well .

[@PipesTobaccoWhiskey]

Thanks for watching. Cheers!

[@ParsimoniousPiper]

Haven’t tried it, but it’s on watch. I, for one, would be interested to see what you come up with in a “contentious” video.

[@PipesTobaccoWhiskey]

👍

[@christianbell5766]

I like the new idea. U should go for it...how bout blending/mixing your own blends

[@PipesTobaccoWhiskey]

Good topic.

[@thepipesmoker5803]

I like the idea of blending or mixing videos.

Thank you.

Oh man...that soapy essence is a turn off for me. I just can't get use to it. Thanks for sharing. Take care 👍🍂🔥💨 JB

Thanks for watching.

[@robertscully3876]

It sounds interesting, I wouldn't make it the top of my list

[@PipesTobaccoWhiskey]

It’s definitely interesting, for sure.

Please mention what kind of tampers that your sons use.

[@thepipesmoker5803]

Interesting review on a great tobacco , I’ve never had this one yet. Short and to the point, that’s me……….KZbin is not Facebook and about 75% of the presenters have gone down the road of taking their pipe content channels and morphing into other things. That’s marvelous but no thanks. I subscribe to many YTPC channels and I don’t watch if it is not related to pipe smoking. Another reason why I haven’t been on Facebook for many years.

[@PipesTobaccoWhiskey]

Thank you for watching. We stick to what we know…

[@smokintheghost]

Bob’s Chocolate, Best Brown #2, and GL Pease Stonehenge Flake are just about as deep as I can wade into the Lakeland waters. It’s a mental thing. Lightly floral I can do, but when my mind drifts to soap-the enjoyment is gone. Great review- be well.

[@PipesTobaccoWhiskey]

Thanks for watching

[@lakelandpiper8400]

What is the most heavily lakeland flavored tobacco?

[@PipesTobaccoWhiskey]

In my opinion, Ennerdale, then dark flake scented, then 1792…but I have not tried all of them.

[@davidtomkinson1570]

Lovely tobacco.

[@PipesTobaccoWhiskey]

[@p_o_r_k_y_p_i_p_e_r9316]

Wow! Really surprised you reviewed a Lakeland...and Ennerdale at that!!! "Old Granny's Knickers'" being the less polite, more widely accepted description over here as you might know. Geranium could be the missing flavour you were looking for, and I have always thought that essences from either peach or apricot stones might be present. There is always the feeling that there is more in a SG/GH blend than they tell you but you can't quite put you finger on it. It's kind of part of the experience. I expected you guys to hate this blend, but it's really cool to see how you embraced this "weird" side of UK pipe smoking heritage. FYI, it's divided over here, with many who just don't get it as a tobacco genre, but with all the heritage it is well respected nonetheless. They're widely accepted as aromatics, but often referred to as Lakeland Aromatics and you always know that the tobacco quality and blending is superior despite being a tad masked behind all that is going on. If you're looking for something less standard Virginia then look no further than Westmoreland Slices or 1792. The former being pretty much a mixture of something like HH Bold Kentucky and a slightly muted Ennerdale. The latter flavoured with Tonka and known for its nic. Bosun's Cut Plug (amaaaaazing!!!) and Mahogany Flake are by far my favourites btw and are really interesting too. On another note, Let's Ash it Out would be a very welcome concept. It would be really good to get some useful, frank insights on all things within our pipe community and less BS. Cheers guys and happy smokes! (Formerly Jez Smith)

[@PipesTobaccoWhiskey]

Thank you for your insight on the GH and SG blends. I need to try those! Thanks for watching and hope all is well!

Never cared much for this brand. Now I know why. Rose water?
