I agree. These two houses have been blending tobacco for so long and are a established, I see no problem with it. The brothers are back together. Just took 150 years Samuel Gawith and Gawith Hoggarth Merger

They both use old style production and the quality of their leaf is what sets the standard to me. No other manufacturer uses higher quality Virginia IMO.

I highly doubt SG allows Hoggarth snot on any of their blends....but I have been known to mix some Kendal flake or Grousemoor with my FVF before....don't know it till you try it
