About This Pipe Tobacco

For G. L Pease's Embarcadero, red Virginia tobaccos are deftly combined with just the right amount of choice Izmir leaf, then pressed and aged in cakes before being sliced into flakes. The result is a richly flavored and harmonious natural tobacco blend, as comfortable as an old pair of jeans, but with a delightful complexity to engage those who choose to explore its depths. The Orientals provide an elusive spice, while the Virginias deliver substance and body. A unique and thoroughly satisfying blend.

I have put a lot of thought into this, and if I could only buy 1 blend for the rest of my life, this would without a doubt be it. Such a simple blend, yet it is deep and complex. Not too strong, not too weak, not too spicy (just the perfect hint of bright but earthy white pepper spice), and not too sweet. Masterpiece!...Read More
Solid Smoke

Product: G. L. Pease Embarcadero 2oz
I'm currently halfway through a tin. Tin note is a pleasant mainly straight tobacco aroma, although not that strong. It is a consistent smoke that burns well throughout the bowl right out of the tin, with a near perfect moisture content. It is a fine mixture of tobaccos with a prominent base of viginia, complemented with quality oriental. I expected more from the description and the high ratings & reviews. This is my 3rd variety of G. I. Pease and thoroughly enjoyed the 1st two selections (Gaslights, Union Square). My preference is usually English and VaPer blends and might be why this one didn't knock my socks off. Overall a good quality blend....Read More
Good at all ages

I love this Virginia oriental. It’s better than geometrie, which I find a little too sweet. All the Virginias used in the Fog city collection are top notch. Laurel heights is another favorite of mine from the collection. Embarcadero is a classic blend. Stash it deep in your cellar. Highly recommend- 4.5 stars...Read More
Nice unique blend

Product: G. L. Pease Embarcadero 2oz
Sweet, red wine, plum and bready flavors that are the reason I love Red Virginias are prevalent here. The Turkish is definitely a condiment but it becomes more and more apparent towards the lower half of the bowl, very floral. Overall a very nice smoke. Easy prep, easy light, easy smooth smoke. This is 1 of the best GL Pease blends I’ve tried and I’ve had at least 10 other varieties....Read More
Really good Oriental
October 27, 2024
Product: G. L. Pease Embarcadero 2oz
It is rather very good oriental blend. I really enjoy Virginias in this blend. Red Virginias produce its classical dark, very slightly sweet overtones. Izmir, in support, produces a lot of spice and taste of earthiness with element of bitterness. The end result is not sweet at all but entirely satisfying. The blend should be of interest both to lovers of oriental leaf as well as VaPer. The blend is pipe dependent. It tastes the best in large thick walled briar pipes IMHO. The interplay between Virginia and Turkish in this blend is not nearly as sophisticated as for example in Skiff, Ashbury, and Chelsea Morning. On other hand your old school friend doesn’t need to be overly sophisticated to bring delight with his presence. I have been smoking this blend for years and plan to continue doing so in foreseen future....Read More
