I’m currently almost out of the glorious WoS Tom Buck that I’ve been sniffing on for a few weeks and was thinking “It’s time to put in an order soon.” Can anyone list out a few “fan favorites” or cream of the crop for the Samual Gawith, WoS, F&T, and Sir Walter Scott houses? I’m looking to make a semi-large order and wanted to hit on what everyone considered the most impressive one or two releases from each of these celebrated manufacturers. Thank you in advance. It’s appreciated.
Some Recommendations:
F&T Seville
F&T Morocco
F&T Old Paris
F&T Morlaix
F&T French Carotte
WoS Morlaix
WoS Irish Dry High Toast no. 20
WoS Gold Label
WoS Lemon Grove
SWS Lundy Foot
SWS Havana Toast
I don’t have as much appreciation for the coarser, moister snuffs, so I’ll leave those recommendations to somebody else.

Thank you both! This is exactly the kind of response I was hoping for! The F&T High Dry Toast is delicious and I must get more. Same with F&T’s Old Paris. Will look into all of these recommendations and add to the list. Thank you both!
I am really liking WoS Grand Cairo right now.
Also I belive that Jaxons is Sam Gawith, So try their Queens special.
Also if you like menthol WoS Dynamite and BEE COOL.
From Wilsons of Sharrow (current lineup): Grove Grand Cairo Best Dark Spear Wall Royal George F&T: Santa Domingo Old Paris Macouba Morlaix Princes Dr Rumneys (Made by WoS): Dr Rumneys Brown Sam Gawith: I have a lot of favourites from the old line up, but haven’t bought anything of theirs since the move to the GH factory. Things may have changed, so I’ll refrain from recommending anything from the current line up. GH: All my faves there are now discontinued SWS: Didn’t work for me for various reasons. Explore and find your own faves. Toque: Spanish Gem Pomegranate Vanilla Toffee Blueberry SP Extra Berwick Brown McChrystals: Mild Lemon (now called Sicillian something-or-other…)
@yisraeldov Jaxons have changed suppliers. Looks like they are now using McC instead of Gawiths. I’ve not tried any of these newer ones as I still have a healthy stash of the old faves.
WoS Jockey Club. Add a large tin to your order - you won’t regret it!

Add Sws mull of oa if you like whysky like laphroaig, sws latakia blend, sws field of junipers if you like gin. For me the first two mull and latakia are true pirates 'Snuff, the first time i took mull of oa i was watching pirates of the Caribbean and it was like i was in the movie :ar!
