Samuel Gawith Skiff Mixture is a Balkan-style blend, leaning on Oriental leaf and Latakia over a Virginia base from Samuel Gawith, a ribbon cut that packs easily and lights readily for a straightforward smoke.
Latakia, Oriental/Turkish, Virginia make up the leaf. Latakia, a fire-cured Oriental leaf, brings the smoky, incense-like campfire character that defines English and Balkan blends. Oriental (Turkish) leaf contributes dry, sour-sweet spice and a herbal, aromatic edge. Virginia tobacco lends a natural grassy, hay-like sweetness and gentle citrus tang that deepens with age.
