Peterson Special Reserve 2012
(3.64)
This marvellous blend of tobaccos was specially selected for connoisseurs with high expectations.
Using two kinds of black cavendish, one sweet and fresh and the other with a hint of chocolate are blended together with brown cavendish and three different Virginias, rounded off with a hint of exclusive, hand cut Virginia and burley flake. The aroma of this mixture is delicate, sweet and creamy and results in a fragrance of coffee, chocolate and caramel.

I've enjoyed each year that Peterson's comes out with a special edition and I always buy at least one on their reputation alone. Some have been my favorite unfortunately but they are only around for limited time so when I opened this tin I did feel the 'surprise'. It smelled good but good in the sense of 'I've been here before" sort of way only with the mark up of being a Reserve edition. The one thing I have noticed that has displeased me is the room note. While smoking it seems to be mild and pleasant but just by leaving the room and re-entering I am overwhelmed by cigarette smoke effect. Having now finished one tin my whole home smells stale from it. I'm sorry to bring such a dampened report but I'll still try other blends they put out in the future.
