Usually I don't like those Christmas tobaccos with their cinnamon or roast apple flavoring. What still inspired me to buy this year's Peterson Holiday Season 2014 was the beautiful Santa Claus tin.

To foreclose the matter: it was a good decision.

The tin note is sweet and delicious with tobacco scents mingling perfectly with the casing and toppings. There are notes of chocolate cake and toffee, but also something that reminds me of freshly made popcorn. The ribbon cut is easy to fill into your bowl. Upon lighting it burn down evenly and slowly.

Right from the start, there's a luscious, sweet, and creamy tobacco flavor with distinct notes of dark chocolate and maybe some vanilla. Towards the end of the bowl this is complemented by some tangy cusps from the Virginias in the blend, which makes it a satisfying smoke.

The room note is so pleasant, I keep trying to sniff it, when the smoke leaves my mouth.

This tobacco is nice, but not exceptional. I found the flavour to be too mild and although the taste does come through, you only get the flavour every so often when smoking. For the last two years I have found the Holiday Season Tobacco to not be of the same standard as 2011, 2012.
