Wilke Pipe Tobacco Gotham Court
(3.44)
A spicy aroma along with a subtle Oriental flavor. Orientals (other than latakia) and a rich Virginia base along with two cavendish tobaccos make up this special blend. Lightly aromatic!

Really good aromatic stuff. Good taste and clean pipe grades it at least at three stars. Cold and cool smoke, no dirty after smoke - that is what I need for a real pleasure.
My first impression for that tobacco by Carole was full 3*, but Tobacco Jar makes it fantastic.
As most other tobaccos I have, a little wait gives a lot. It is not ageing, give it little pause before use. So was with Gotham Court. 4 month in Tobacco Jar's prison and Gotham Court wins 1 star more.
4 stars on today.

I agree with previous reviews. I, for a long time, was strictly english blend smoker. A while ago I tried some virginia blends and was pleasantly suprised at how full bodied and tasty they were. I then tried Gotham Court. Pouch aroma is wonderful and zesty. Room note is great(may remind you of your grandpa or dad's pipe tobacco). Taste is spicey but well balanced. I do not miss the latakia at all. White ash to the bottom of the bowl. I smoked a bowl just yesterday with the temp. outside at 90 degrees. The tobacco proved to be a good hot weather smoke as it is flavorful but not heavy. Two tips - when you open the pouch spread out the tobacco and let it sit out for at least 2 hours, 4 or 5 if you have the time as the tobacco comes a little to moist. When smoking a bowl smoke it slow and easy(as pipes should be smoked). If you puff to hard or rapidly you will feel the heat on the tounge.

I normally shy away from any blends with black Cavendish, but reviews here convinced me to go ahead and give this one a chance. I'm glad I did. There is sweet VA, to be sure, but it is countered by the Orientals, which add a perfect amount of spice. The interplay between these two dominant flavors is delightful. I tend to be a moody smoker, yet Gotham Court offers a smoking experience that manages to always fit my mood.
