This is VERY much a Christmas smoke and an enjoyable one at that! My overall impressions are similar to those posted by the others. The room note is almost lovely and smells like an old-timey Christmas shop, sort of a well-integrated blend of spice and evergreen resulting in a pleasently mild-sweet smelling aromatic smoke, though it is not particularly sweet in taste.
To me, in the bag it smells like tea and cinammon, in fact very much like a tea called "Constant Comment" (I think they still make that).
It was a bit steamy and took more than the usual effort to light (not annoyingly so) but the tobacco itself it not especially moist. I am a "frequent puffer" which resulted in some initial bite. I did not notiuce the fruit-like references made by Dug until about halfway through the bowl and they were fleeting.
Grab some if you can, this is a special seasonal blend.
THANKS, DUG!
