Peterson's Christmas Blend 2011 is something special.
The tin aroma is exquisite.
Packing lighting and smoking is an enjoyable experience. The flavor is rich and wonderful. The smoke is very thick and there is no question, you can taste the candied fruit. Towards the bottom of the bowl the spiciness of the cinnamon starts to kick in over the pleasantly sweet flavor.
This is very enjoyable and I received many compliments about how wonderful this tobacco smelled.

Think of this as "Blue Note" only better. This is one of the few tobaccos I've found that actually tastes like it smells in the tin. The room note is great. I detected no bite, though given the wonderful flavors I puffed this one like a madman.
I had one bowl this morning on what I thought would be my only tin, and I promptly ordered two more to cellar. I smoke burley blends for the most part, but this aromatic has won my allegiance.
UPDATE:
Now that I have a tin of Sillem's Black on hand, I must say there's a strong resemblance between these two. The spiced apple note is common, while the Peterson obviously is missing the Latakia.
