Samuel Gawith Grouse-Moor 50g tin – Year 1998

This pre-red banner era Grouse-Moor tin is now 28-years old! Per tobaccoreviews.com: ​ “An original blend from Samuel Gawith, Grousemoor conjures up a vision of the Lakeland scenery with its accompaniment of seasonal scents. Manufactured in the heart of Lakeland for over 200 years. Using a combination of hand-stripped flue-cured Virginia leaf, Grousemoor is first steamed prior to being cut. After further steaming, to give Grousemoor its own golden color, the cut leaf is stoved then “rested”. The final stage of production is the addition of a unique melange of flavors.”
