Granger is a classic American Burley blend, using rich, ripe Kentucky Burley, that delivers smooth natural tobacco flavor with a moderate, pleasant aroma. This is certainly an all-day type of tobacco. Generation of pipe enthusiasts have kept some Granger on hand at all times, and once you try it, we think you'll want to as well.

Great all day smoke. Hints of chocolate, sometimes wine. If you like Sir Walter raleigh this is practically the same product. Just lighter on the wine flavor.

Simple, pleasant and inexpensive tobacco. Pleasant room note. It's not the most complex tobacco, but it does the job and doesn't bother anyone.

Granger is king

Just like grandpa smoked, it's the only blend i smoke these days and my cellar is well stocked. In my opinion it's the best codger blend still around and hope they never quit making it.

Good classic over-the-counter burley
Mar 24, 2023
I'm normally a Virginia/Perique smoker.
The quality of Granger is good for a classic over-the-counter brand, and the tin note is inviting (anise/raisins), but the flavor when smoked is considerably less intense than what you might expect if you're used to boutique tins of tobacco. Some people have trouble tasting burley by itself (and I might be one of them). For me, if smoked too quickly, Granger tastes like mostly hot air. If smoked VERY slowly and gently, it smells great from the bowl itself, but the flavor is still very light. Curiously, when added to other blends, it seems to make itself known in a much stronger way, adding body, mouth feel, and an obvious woody/nutty element that wasn't detectable when smoked by itself. I suspect Granger would be best smoked inside so the room note could have time to build up. It's decent stuff, stays lit, would be good for blending, but if burley isn't your thing or you're used to big bold flavors, you might want to try a small amount before committing to a tub. I'm told it's quite similar to Sir Walter Raleigh, so if you like that, you'll probably love Granger.

Keep Coming Back To It
Feb 14, 2023
I really enjoy this tobacco. It is a no-frills, just sit back, relax, stuff your pipe and light her up type of smoking experience. Some mild nutty flavor comes through that lasts throughout the bowl, and just enough sweetness to let you know it is there, but not obtrusive and not aromatic. The leaf is easy to light and stays lit. I’ve tried many other brand name/heralded burleys, and they are tasty, but I just keep finding myself coming back to this tobacco. There is just something about it. Much like a loyal bird dog, it’s an old friend that will treat you well if you give it a chance. I feel confident in saying I’ll be smoking a lot of this blend many years from now. Give Granger a try.

Going to Give It Some Time
Nov 06, 2022
I'm expecting this will grow on me. I had been looking for Carter Hall, but it was on back order. Granger seemed a good substitute. There is some kind of tangy bitter note that I occasionally get with this, and it's not exactly to my liking. Maybe I'm smoking it too quickly, but even when I try to slow down, I do get a little bit of a raw feeling in the mouth. I will keep smoking this while the tobacco dries a bit. Given how many people like it, I'm hopeful I will too.

Granger points to a win.
Nov 04, 2022
I'm quite reluctant to by the big cans. I'm always opting for the pouches for new products and plus I don't like to sit on one thing for very long. However, I'm glad that Granger provided and flavor to my liking with cool burning ribbons. Although I would prefer Half and Half to other non aromatics, I wasn't disappointed with Granger. It is smooth and not too harsh. The aroma is mild with nothing displeasing saturating the air and clothes. I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys Half & Half, Sir Walter Raleigh or Prince Albert.

Jul 14, 2022
The consistent easy smoke that grandpa enjoyed daily. Since I prefer a fuller bodied blend, I toss some of this in with some home-raised Havana cigar leaf, some stoved VA and a healthy dose of Perique to create a flavor experience bar none.

Bird Dog Tobacco
Jun 18, 2022
I remember seeing Granger on the grocery store shelf in the 60s, when I was smoking Prince Albert. Recently when at my Son’s house , noticed a can on his desk and tried it. Granger burned cool, had a medium burley taste, but not the heavy tar in many grocery store tobaccos. I ordered a can from P&C, and it is now my daily smoke. If you’re familiar with the Burley Light Without a Bite, Granger has similar characteristics. For the price, give it a try,

Jun 03, 2022
Mild all day burley. If you are a burley guy, worth a try. Easy to fill pipe and stays lit. Flavor is mild with no bite and is exactly what it says it is- A no nonsense burley. Tobacco flavor comes through and whatever the top note it does not interfere with the tobacco flavor. Nicotine is mild. Room note is pleasant and mild. Definitely an all day smoke. Stays consistent through entire smoke. No bite at all.

Possibly my tastes have changed over the decades but I enjoy Granger more these days than long ago. There is a subtle sweetness that comes through with slow puffing that is a pleasant surprise. I usually smoke it in corn cobs and it is a nice combination.

My Go-to Tobacco
Apr 04, 2022
I'm a Burley guy. Been smoking a pipe since 1959 (I was 12 yrs old). Tried all the codger blends and then some. Smoked Half & Half for over 40 years but several years ago I decided I wanted Burley and only Burley. Bought a tub of Granger and what can I say? Good stuff. It's Burley. Damn fine Burley. If you like Burley or want to try Burley, do yourself a favor and get a tub.

Granger is my go to every morning to start my day. I enjoy it in a large full bent Rossi or Rovera, tamped somewhat on the harder packed side, a bowl lasts the entire portion of my morning commute - slower burning - pleasant consistent flavor from first lighting to the conclusion at bowl's bottom.

Old-Fashioned Goodness

Tobacco has gotten so complicated lately. This is a natural blend with some real flavor. There is earth and grass and a sweetness that does not come from toppings. This is a real old-fashioned smoke. Like the smaller size can as well. The cut is smaller for easier scoop and smoke.

What a fantastic surprise. I thought I knew Burley aromatics‘ apparently there were a few tricks in Granger‘s bag.
I have always been a burly fan velvet, Big and burly‘ to name a few.
This tobacco is great with a cup of coffee or a Coca-Cola classic.
I have found this to be one of the coolest smokes I’ve ever had. Similar flavorings to velvet. But I would call what Granger has done more refined.
Do yourself a favor and give this OTC a try

...was the old tagline from their ads from back in the day; this product is all of those things. Am glad I committed to the 7oz tin...Granger is a fantastic, straight forward pipe tobacco; very easy going and comforting. The blend is similar to SWR but with less sweet topping. Will likely get the bigger size next time.

My father smoked granger for years and now im carrying the torch.

I enjoy Granger. It has a nice nutty flavor and doesn't bite at all. I think it's right up there with Prince Albert, Carter Hall, Sir Walter Raleigh, etc. Will definitely try to keep some on hand from now on.
MV of Edgewater Park, NJ
I really enjoy Burley tobaccos and this one is no different. However, it gives me cottonmouth like I've never had with any other Burley blends. The flavor and room note are nice, cottonmouth not so much. I may try it again in the future but for now, I'm passing.
WS of monmouth, IL
Nice and fresh. At a good price compared to local pipe shop.
JV of Rancho Santa Margarita, CA
I first smoked Granger Pipe Tobacco about 45-50 years ago. It still has the fresh, sweet aroma I remember in the can and the smoke has the real, "undoctored" tobacco taste I love.
JB of Seguin, TX
This is definitely what I remember a good ole USA pipe tobacco should taste and smell like. Not only good by itself but a good blending Burley as well. Granger is my go to everyday, don't have to think about, no nonsense tobac. And just a note: It is better now than in the past.
JG of Peoria, AZ
Perhaps I should begin with a disclaimer: I don't typically enjoy a very nutty burley. This is one of the reasons I enjoy Prince Albert when it comes to OTC's; mild, straightforward burley that you can smoke without really thinking about it. But when I was told that Granger was the meatier, fuller bodied PA, I was eager to at least give it a try it. Sadly, I was disappointed. To begin, this truly is a codger burley. You are getting what you would expect. Opening the tin releases an intense plum-like aroma that whets the appetite for what comes next. Upon the first light and tamp, I was greeted by an old fashioned smoky burley (as that is all there is). It lit well and burned steady. Unfortunately, this was a bit nutty for my taste, which reinforced my choice for PA if I'm smoking an OTC. But if that's your thing, you WOULD be in for a treat; that is, if it weren't for Granger's damning flaw--about three bowls in I started to recognize a strong taste of burning plastic the refused to quit. This remained for many bowls until I finally gave up. After some research, it seems to be an issue of quality control. For this reason, I can't recommend buying Granger. On a good day, Granger is a nutty, flavorful burley for a good price. But on a bad day, it tastes like melted down Tupperware that will leave you running for something to cleanse the palate.
