Gawith Sweet Pigtails

[puros_bran]

Whole leaf in a pipe or a cigar blend doesn't demand that they are all the same type of leaf.  They can vary by genetics, position, curing process, etc. It is a deceptive term, intentional or not.
Even if it is all the same variety of leaf just the process of curing in the inner portion vs the outer portion of the twist would have some effect on the flavor offered. Yes?

Si Senor!

All most interesting indeed.

Also, according to the GQTobaccos website descriptions, the Gawith pigtails that are designated sweet with a specific flavor, like rum, etc. have more sugars and flavors added than the twist version designated sweet etc. So I find verification there that the piggies are sweeter.

BTW: the VA Tobaccos site is easily the most complete re Gawith offerings of anything I've seen. Wealth!

Hmmmm. Found and ordered some Sweet Maple Twist AND some custom Dark Flake Liquorice at the GQ Tobaccos site. Happy Father's Day to me!
