Peterson Sweet Killarney
(2.24)
A unique mixture of selected tobaccos including golden Virginia and black cavendish, topped with a cream caramel flavor. To make this wonderful tobacco even more attractive, it is blended with hand-rubbed Virginia flake which results in a fantastic aroma.
Notes: Due to EU regulations, this is now renamed and sold in those countries as "Killarney".

This one scared me. I was new to the game and loaded my nicest pipe with Sweet Killarney--not a mistake I will make twice mind you. I thought this mixture permenantly ruined my best pipe. The syrups were so thick that it lined the inside of the bowl with an odor that lasted about six weeks. Everytime I smoked the pipe with another tobacco, I found myself haunted by the flavors of Sweet Killarney. I have to say, I didn't taste any cream caramel. To me, it was like smoking suntan lotion--all coconutty. With none of the pleasure of hanging out beside the pool. Maybe I'm not the best person to judge--I don't know much about Virginias and probably couldn't even find Virginia on a map, but I do know that this blend was not my cup of chowder.

I got a chance to try this tobacco at a friends place. It was a fairly old tin (approximately 2 years) so it had some time to dry. I found the tin note to be a bit standoffish pretty sweet and chocolaty. I primarily smoke English tobaccos but not wanting to be rude gave it a try. What I found was a bit more tobacco taste that I expected, still less than I like, and a "Baileys Irish Cream. It was a bit better that I expected but still not my cup of tea. The blend of tobaccos made it an specially mellow blend that if the taste was your fancy could easily be smoked all day. I did notice that my mouth felt coated with wax when I was done, so that was not a high point. Overall as aromatics go, this is another in a long line of average tobaccos that I will probably not try again atleast for a long while.

I like earthy strong tobaccos without sweet flavorings. I could only tolerate two bowls of this due to the intense sweet flavor. I dislike it and it's much cheaper to rapidly ingest several Pixie Sticks if I want a sweet taste.
