BUY BRITISH The Kendal Shag Tobacco is made in the heart of the lake district in the true British spirit. The finest tobacco leaves are sourced from the finest tobacco producing nations before being blended and prepared in the Kendal Tobacco factory.

Do you find the Kendal Gold burns a little hot and lacks flavour while the Medium give a little too much bite? Then the No.6 may just be the tobacco you've been looking for. The Kendal No.6 is a blend of the finest Burley with a strong presence of Virginia giving it that cool, easy going smoking characteristic with a little more flavour. It has been top dressed with a discreet aromatic and Cocoa based essence, which almost eliminates any bite. All of the tobacco's in the Kendal Shag Tobacco range are very clean, containing very little of the stem and produce a very natural flavour without the chemical harshness present in many modern tobaccos. Shag Tobacco: Due to some hand rolling smokers using shag tobacco for hand rolling purposes, HMRC have taken action to stop this abuse of the tobacco taxation. HMRC have defined that any tobacco where the strands are less than 1.5mm will be taxed as a Hand Rolling tobacco. All shag tobacco produced as of January 2011 will be cut above 1.5mm. This is a pipe tobacco and is taxed accordingly. It is a criminal offence to use shag tobacco for hand rolling and we do not endorse this.
