SAMUEL GAWITH
Since 1792 pipe tobacco and snuff has been made by the firm the world knows today as Samuel Gawith & Co., Ltd. Located in the Kendal Brown House in Kendal, England, gateway to the famed Lake District, tradition is more than just a phrase for the folks at Gawith, it is a way of life. Fine pipe tobaccos, in leaf, flake, rope and plug form, are made today using the same techniques, recipes and machinery that have been used for over 150 years. We are pleased to be able to offer the following selection of the finest the Lake District has to offer, Samuel Gawith tobaccos.
