Ogdens Gold Block has been a staple with British smokers for decades. This smooth and mellow blend of Virginia and Burley, with a little added sweetness. The thick and fluffy shag cut, makes for easy packing straight from the pouch. In the pipe, this tobacco smokes with a sweet and grassy base taste, with a little spice coming from the Burley used. While this tobacco is great on its own, mix 50/50 with St Bruno creates a tobacco loved by many all over the world. Many smokers find this tobacco to burn hot, but if you pack it tight and sup slowly all the wonderful tastes come through and shows why this tobacco has been iconic for so long.
