Wilke Pipe Tobacco Rumcake
(3.58)
Originally prepared as our 1993 Christmas blend, Rumcake proved so popular we made it available year round. This Jamaican rum laced blend is based on a mixture we originally made for actor Basil Rathbone. Due to the keen characteristics of the rum flavoring we prefer to offer this mixture in 8 or 16 ounce jars. This is the finest rum mixture offered anywhere!

Rumcake is exactly as advertised: mild and pleasantly sweet. It's not really my cup of tea but there's no doubt about the quality. P&W makes the best aromatics around, period. As usual, it won't bite no matter how hard you puff. Good for a beginner, for those who just want something to puff on, or if you need a good room-note.

After reading some of the reviews on here I had to have some of this. Not sure if I got the tail end of a batch or what but this was bland to me. I didn't taste any rum, in fact I didn't taste much of anything. No smell at all when opening the pouch either. I will stick with the Vermont Maple Cavendish.

This is a very pleasant blend which I found pretty bland. It's well behaved and smells terrific in the pouch and when burning. The only flavor I get is an occasional bit of sweetness. I get a little bite from it, unlike most Wilke blends. I tried mixing it 50-50 with NBB as another reviewer suggested, but still didn't get much out of it. If you like extremely mild tobaccos, this will suit you, otherwise I suggest Wilke's 196 or Bohemian Mixture.

This is really a very good mixture BUT it is not quite as wonderful as I've heard it described.An extremely pleasant aroma with a good sweet taste yet, I found it to be rather run of the mill.If you really like rum i would give it a try,but if you just like good aromatics go for the Bohemian mix and treat yourself to something really different.
