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.

as always, i just love the tin! little work of designer art, utterly useless when done with. but how enjoyable! important stuff now. burns nice and cool, no bite whatsoever. surprisingly keeps the flavors till the very end. it does require some relighting, but personally don't find that troubling. chocolate notes, maybe a hint of coffee(?), somewhere in the back resins? figs? quite distant but adds a nice background.

This is a very pleasant tobacco. It is perfect for a desert after a good lunch/dinner. Works excellent with a 5 o'clock cup of tea 🙂 Overall, I would say 3 out of 4

Very nice for when you're in the mood for a very sweet smoke, which if you're like me isn't very often - but often enough to warrant something special. It tastes like I imagine a mochachocochino would taste like. Exceptionally good tin aroma and room note. Many times nicer than MacBaren's 7seas Regular Blend. No doubt I'll still have some left when the 2013 Reserve comes out. Great to smoke seldomly, potential to get cloying.
