Wilke Pipe Tobacco Royal Scot
(2.71)
The famous Royal Scot, a most aromatic blend, remains unique and unlike any other aromatic ever made. The flavoring for this classic mixture has been a closely held secret for over 100 years. This melange of plugged Virginia, North Carolina and burley can be smoked as is, or used to enhance your own favorite blend.

The Bicentennial. Gerald R. Ford. Blond American Cavendish. A vanilla sundae. My late mother-in-law used to say: "Ned, you smell like a pastry shop"! As aromatics go, this was a classic. It certainly went with plaid bell-bottoms and extra-wide, burnt-tangarine ties. Gosh, never again.
Girls with white lipstick used to love it, though.

I believe this is Wilke?s oldest blend, having been around for more than a century. Why this stuff endures is anybody?s guess; nostalgia perhaps. I smoked it with a friend of mine and the only thing that came to my mind was Zeppo Marx?s line: ?I wanna tootsie frootsie ice cream!? It?s a cross between a musty English blend and a drug store coated affair slathered in cherry phosphate, nuts and whipped cream. This should be called Schrafft?s Surprise.
