Wilke Pipe Tobacco Gramercy Park

Another wonderful blend from Pipeworks & Wilke! love the taste, smell, burn quality, etc. Thanks Carole.

I wanted to point out that I am smoking GP as I type because one of my coworkers just walked by me and said "Oh! That's what smells so nice". Thought that speaks volumes for the room note. 🙂

greekthinker is spot on with his review, really nailed the description.

I Love This Stuff!!!

Excellent!

This tobacco reminds me of Trout Stream. It consists of a similar mix of predominantly Burley balanced with some Virginia and Black Cavendish. It offers the same easy burning properties, same velvet-like smoke and complete lack of bite. But, whereas Trout Stream smells and tastes of butterscotch, Gramercy Park is pure fruit cake: a mix of fortified wine, sweet raisins, a sprinkle of tart dried fruits, and pastry.

The room note is that of goodies baking in an oven, therefore even non-smokers find it more than a bit pleasant!

I am a real fan of Carol'e blends & her quality of service. I find that most of the blends benefit from drying when received. I generally lay the batch out on newspaper or paper towel for a couple of days & then jar it. This is not a chemical wet nor goopy. The flavour of Gramercy is lovely when dried , it lights easily, sometimes one match for the bowl. It is toasty, fruity, not at all bitey & is a marvellous smoke. It imparts its roomnote to your clothes for awhile & that is not an unpleasant thing like say cigarettes. Love this blend & always have on hand.

If you're used to heavily cased aromatics, Carole's blends may take some getting used to. The flavorings used in Pipeworks & Wilke blends are used as an afterthought, if you will.

Gramercy Park is my favorite of the Pipeworks & Wilke blends that I've tried so far. It is one of the only fruity aromatics I've ever tried that smokes cool with no bite. The tobacco flavor is center stage and the topping is icing on the cake.

I will order this one again and highly recommend that you try this as part of Carole's sampler pack.

One reviewer referred to this tobacco as "velvety". I couldn't agree more. Pleasent from start to finish, no bite, even burning, good to the last drop. I have just returned to the pipe and was searching for the "ideal" pouch. Great aroma in the room. This comes close. Four stars all the way. Will be searching for variations on this theme.

This is another Excellent blend form Vermont. This is different from Carols other blends I have smoked. This one is just a little fruity and is string cut. Smokes cool and dry.

Oh, my my. This is a really sophisticated blend for the aromatic afficianado.It is very smooth and almost velvet like on the tongue. It has one of the best Vanilla flavorings I have ever tasted.I don't know what liquers they are using but they are truly superior. This is for the "Frangelico" crowd. It is sweet, but not not sticky or goopy.The best analogy I can give is the following: This is what Pipes and Cigars' "Butternut Burley" was supposed to be. You will not be disappointed with this wonderful aromatic offering.NOBODY DOES AROMATICS LIKE WILKE!!! IMHO they are incapable of making a bad aromatic.4 of 4 aromatic stars!
