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.

Yes, very nice, indeed. The delicious, easy to take vanilla/marshamallow based Wilke Cavendish with lots of pleasing fruity essences that only master blender, Carole Burns can bring off. I'm too much of an English smoker these days, and I'm really into the C & Ds, specifically, Serads. But when the mood strikes for an excellent, creamy, toasty aromatic, this is a winner. Much nicer and less goopy than even the McClelland American aromatics, which I really like as well. A unique blending accomplishment. Try this for dessert with a steaming cup of coffee with hazelnut cream.

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!

Gramercy Park has been around a long time and every couple of years when I make a P&W buy of a few tobaccos, I always get a couple of ounces. It has a very unique casing that I enjoy. I admit that I don't usually smoke it straight as it is as mild an aromatic as you will find on the market today. But the sweetness is there to enjoy with every puff. And don't try drying out this blend before you smoke it. It won't.

Having read the reviews, I decided to try a 4oz sample. I just don't see what all the rave is about. Smells great in the bag & burns ok but the taste is void of flavors & is very bland to say the least. Sorry but 1 star here.

P&W's distinctive Cavendish, with a pretty heavy fruit topping and a bit of coconut oil in the background, like the aftertaste from a Mounds bar. This stuff is very sweet, but never cloying. It's clearly top-grade -- it never bites -- but too rich for my blood. The aroma will linger in your pipe but one or two bowls of even a mild crossover blend will get rid of it.
I prefer English blends and tried Grammercy Park in the hopes of finding something with an acceptable room-note. In the event it seems inoffensive to the tobaccophobic nose of my wife -- I just wish that I liked it more myself. It's like a well-prepared but heavy dessert. If you like fine, sweet aromatics, then you'll love it.

If you enjoy aromatics this will not disappoint. The smell of the tobacco blend reminds me of a mild combination of vanilla, a bit of cream, light caramel. Maybe a hint of fruit.
I almost always get compliments on how great the room note is on this tobacco. Doesn't burn too hot, no tongue bite. Just what you want from a great aromatic. This is one of those blends that tempts you to grab a fork and take a bit when you first smell it.
Like most of the aromatics from the Wilke recipes, this is very most when it first arrives.
