I am slowly becoming convinced that any aromatic with a Peterson label on it will be a worthwhile pursuit and this one was no exception. I wouldn't say it was my favorite aro by Peterson, that honor so far rests with DeLuxe Mixture, but it is close enough to warrant a fourth star IMHO.
Like the other aros by Pete, this carried an abundant aroma in the tin note, but once lit it became apparent that the topping was lightly applied allowing the tobacco to come forth and adding only a mere accentuation to the same. This, like the others, is a great mix of burley and Virginia which brings natural nuttiness in itself to the blend before any toppings are added. The cut was the only thing I felt was odd about this blend. It was kind of all over the place with some very large pieces of what appeared to be Virginia leaf. While the appearance of this was random, it performed flawlessly which is all the matters anyway. I never had a problem taking this down to ash with one light when I wasn't interrupted.
A lot of times I don't favor toppings when they are made to resemble things I like to eat, but that is not the case with this one. It is made of everything I like to eat and I just loved it; key to this is probably the coconut as this is something I really enjoy in toppings. I am pretty sure that if the toppings were not told to me upfront, there is no way I would be able to identify them individually, in fact, I really thought that it came off as more a carmelly confectionary type taste.
Another bonus to the Peterson Aros is they also satisfy the nic cravings. They are not overwhelmingly strong by any means, but they will leave you sated, at least they do me. I think this one will really ring the bells of burley lovers who are looking for a sweet treat. This burley lover really enjoyed it and could easily smoke it all day.

I was a little bit sceptical about the coconut, but I gave it a try. It was worth it. This is a very tasty and nice tobacco. The aromas are not overwhelming, rum and macadamia rule, and coconut is just... there. No artificial feeling, they all feel natural, and go together really well (and not as girly as they sound). I loved it straight from the tin, though I found the taste just a little bit mellow, and I could imagine some more nutty and earthy taste, and also wanted to add some creamy texture to the smoke- so I made a little experiment: I added some Original Choice (MB). And there it was. Just what I wanted. The mixture made both tobacco's best qualities just a bit louder.
I always have a little leftover from Original Choice, as Mac Baren provides it in a pouch only, and about 20-25% of the pouch breaks to small grains. And this is just a perfect way to use these leftovers. Nutty Cut comes in big cut, so I can start stuffing with those, they fill the bottom of my pipe nicely. And then I start adding Original Choice (10-20% only). I finish with Original Choice (small grains to the top), and voila.
It became a habit. The smoke has a more creamy texture, macadamia becomes the protagonist, and all tastes go stronger. I strongly recommend a try.
And I also recommend Nutty Cut to beginners. It is easy to light, and maintain, has no tongue bite, it is mild, yet it has a very pleasant aroma "without an effort".

This is the "DeLuxe Mixture" on stamina.
Much more flavour, much more pleasure, for the smoker as well as for his neighbourhood.
I love to smoke it before dinner. And, after eating, people often ask me: "why not smoking some more of your tobacco?"
To sum up, this is a great aromatic, which gives pleasure to everyone.

Nice nutty and sweet flavor, but not cloying sweet. Slow starting but after it gets going, burns nice with no tongue bite. Very pleasant and enjoyable smoke.

I'm a big fan of this particular Peterson blend - I find it to taste both coco-nutty and chocolaty which is a delicious combination.
When you open the tin a all empowering aroma becomes evident - reminding me a little of a full bodied fruit wine. It smokes well and the moisture level out of the tin is close to perfect - the guys at Peterson really know what they are doing.

I failed to read the tin before I bought this, was thinking it would be more pecan or walnut (something of the sort). I do not care for coconut at all, but this was not a bad tobacco at all. I'm sure that if I like coconut the would be joining my rotation as I am enjoying it anyway. Low on Vitamin N and the wife says it "smells better than some of your others." for her that is a compliment.

I thoroughly enjoyed this product. I am an aromatic smoker, and enjoy mostly sweet Cavendish blends. This tin really hit the spot. The first couple bowls had a noticeable coconut aroma and flavor to them, but about half way through the tin that was gone, perhaps the tobacco dried out too much. What was consistent for me was the hazelnut taste. After the bowl was finished I found that taste to linger on. I didn't pick up on the rum at all. The tobacco smoked evenly, and fairly cool throughout. I would buy this tin again hands down. I enjoy Peterson products very much, and this new blend surely did not disappoint.

The smell from the time was a very sweet (but not sickly) aroma of vanilla and a hint of rum. The tobacco itself is easy to light but not so much that it's like a tinderbox and I find keeps lit rather well.
Smoking wise I will be honest and say I was a little disappointed during the first 1/3 of the bowl: yes it is a sweet smoke but it's very faint and burns a little hot.
However once you reach half way through the bowl it changed instantly from a flat and hot smoke to a very sweet and cool smoke. When drawing the smoke it was that cool I couldn't feel it in my mouth instead the flavour creeps along your tongue leaving the taste of sweet rum. Exhaling through the nose you are left with the taste of nuts.
Towards the end the nutty taste dominates the smoke and becomes more potent, almost replacing the taste of rum and vanilla completely.
In my opinion it is one of the finest aromatics I've smoked and will be buying more Nutty Cut in future.

On opening the tin you get a very pleasing floral sweet note. Like the other Peterson branded blends I have tried, this seems to combine high quality tobaccos into an easy to pack ribbon cut. The casing gives almost a honey aroma to the overall mixture.
Once lit, this has become one of my two favourite blends. The coconut and rum flavorings translate into a very smooth smoke. There is not too much sweetness and the base taste of the tobacco comes through the over tones of flavours.
As you reach the lower half of the bowl, there is none of the dampness or "spitting" sounds that you can get from some other aromatics. The taste towards the end of the bowl is rather nutty and again very pleasing.
If you enjoy more gentle aromatics then I would urge you to try this splendid quality blend.

As for tobacco, since many reviewers already provided some information, I will keep it simple. Aroma within tin is amazing, including draw after packing and before getting it lit. Easy to lit and I taste the Burley, Virginia, nut and sweetness during first, second and last third. At the end of my last third I had to re-lit one time before the very last 5 puffs, and this could be related to my smoking pace. The added notes are not overwhelming and provide great accent tone. Room note is pleasant and family complements every time. It does not generate tongue bite and no gurgles. This is a good tobacco to enjoy on a rotation. Why? Every time I come back to it, almost as if I am smoking it for the first time. Overall, this tobacco is worth enjoying it.
An advise to all pipe critiques out there. When writing online reviews, please criticize product in-scope. In other words, do not give product "low stars" rating, yet fail to provide substance on your review. A low star rating with a "I do not like tobacco," or "I prefer other kind or taste," or "I like name brand tobacco better than this" misleads everyone. These types of statements are not constructive and does not help tobacco community. Not to mention you are impacting product statistics and potential buyers, and these are the people that might enjoy the tobacco. If you indeed did not like the tobacco... It is OK to be specific on the reasons. If that is not possible, then provide Pros and Cons and that should help us while reading reviews.
Happy pipe puffing everyone.
