A mild-to-medium English-style pipe tobacco with a modest twist—a faint vanilla flavouring—is Samuel Gawith Perfection. It was first made for a local pipe smoker in Kendal who was having trouble finding his "perfect" blend. The concoction got its name from his enthusiastic acceptance.

Oriental-forward: With its spicy and creamy undertones, Turkish Izmir is a noticeable flavour.

Subtle Latakia: The Latakia is used sparingly and contributes a subtle woodsy and smoky flavour without overpowering the blend.

Sweet Virginia base: The natural sweetness and green notes from the Virginia tobaccos are counterbalanced by the other ingredients.

Vanilla nuance: The tastes are connected by the gentle sweetness of the vanilla coating, which is mild.
