Peretti Thanksgiving Day
(3.27)
A yearly blend for Thanksgiving. A ribbon/cube cut blend pressed together into four ounce cakes.
Notes: As many of our friends are aware, ‘Thanksgiving Day’, a four-ounce pressed cake has been a tradition since 1939. Year after year, we make it available in a limited capacity starting on November first. This effort keeps us tied to our roots when Major Joseph Peretti, father of Robert Peretti, set forth to blend Peretti’s Burley and English mixtures. The Major wanted to create a blend with the essence of the holiday season, and after countless trials, a mixture of 7 different tobaccos blended with a balance of dark rum and fruit juices was concocted and pressed into breakable 4 ounce cakes. This process has not changed since the first batch was taken from the press.

So, I bought into the hype. I purchased a 2oz bag, good thing I only purchased just the 2oz. LJP puts out some great blends which I enjoy very much, BUT... with this one, I think they became sloppy. #1 the squared pressed tobacco is shipped in a very flimsy plastic bag sealed off with a pice of scotch tape. REALLY!!!! what would have cost them to put this "SPECIAL BLEND" in a zip lock? #2 because of the poor packaging the tobacco got to me bone dry. I live in NYC, so LJP shipping from Boston to NYC was 2 days. So, travel time couldn't have caused it to dry out the way it did. #3 Because of it being so dry, This blend had nothing, No flavor, No tobacco flavor, NOTHING, NADA. just smoked hot because of its dryness. I cant even use this to blend with other blends. I will give LJP benefit of doubt and maybe I received a bad selection, but I wont be buying this again. Got me once, wont catch me again. I WOULDN'T EVEN GIVE THIS A STAR RATING.

I wanted to make sure to add this review prior to the release of this blend this year. This has got to be one of the WORST tasting tobaccos blends ever to be conceived. Does the description sound questionable to you? Be afraid, this blend truly is a potpourri of bizarre tastes that just dont work. After trying 3 bowls and not being able to finish a single one I can tell you this stuff is awful.
