Well worth it
January 25, 2018
Product: Peterson Irish Cask 50g
I’m new to pipe smoking, I despise cigarettes and only had a cigar once in a while. On the verge of giving up tobacco products all together I for some reason, went and bought $100 worth of a starter kit. I’ve never had a better experience or smoke in... Read More
Full Flavor
August 01, 2017
Product: Peterson Irish Cask 50g
I really enjoy this blend. It reminds me a bit of Macbaren HH Acadian Perique. The aging in sherry barrels gives it a very subtle hint of wine like aroma in the tin note and really ties the blend together. I don't detect any casing or topping or flav... Read More
A VaPer with some Sherry
March 04, 2018
Product: Peterson Irish Cask 50g
Virginia/Perique forward. Good strength, lovely flavors--some bread notes, raisins, light spice. There is indeed a slight boozy-sweetness to it does a great job complimenting the natural tobacco flavors, but I would not go as far to say that it's a... Read More
An aromatic I can appreciate
August 27, 2021
Product: Peterson Irish Cask 50g
I'm not generally a fan of aromatics, but I appreciate this one. The oak sherry flavor is subtle, with an almost citrus fruit flavor enhanced by the spice of the perique. Sweet but not like most 'fruity' aros. Not your typical overwhelming chocolat... Read More
Solid Smoke
November 05, 2017
Product: Peterson Irish Cask 50g
Fairly new to pipe smoking, but I found this to be easy to light and keep burning, even with breaks. It has a spicy taste, and as other reviews mentioned, it will bite if smoked fast. Overall, very enjoyable smoke.
Better with age!
February 17, 2017
Product: Peterson Irish Cask 50g
Irish Oak is very good, but if you let it age for about a year, it is great. The Perique is peppery and a little spicy and also a little sweet. The Virginia's impart a little sweetness with some hay. I found it to be a little harsh though if pushed o... Read More

My Favorite Peterson Blend
January 30, 2023
Product: Peterson Irish Cask 50g
This was one of my first experiences with perique and it was a good one. I tried quite a few Peterson blends while most were disappointing, at least for my tastes, this one wasn’t. Lovely tin note, a bright lemony flavor, and just a bit of spice. ... Read More

Better then the earlier version Irish Oak

Product: Peterson Irish Cask 50g
Better then I remembered when it went under the name Irish Oak. Tin opened to grassy scent Virginia blended well with the Black Cavendish and the Perique quite upfront. There is a slight topping. appears more like whiskey than sherry.I think sheery c... Read More

Nice, full and round taste. If you puff it easy you’ll get the cherry.

It’s my favourite. Well balanced tobacco with a nice strength.
Taste is a four!
October 07, 2021
Product: Peterson Irish Cask 50g
Whoa, that was my thought after my first puff. This has very strong taste and should be smoked slowly. Even knowing it's a four on taste, it hit harder then you might think it should. Still a very good mix of tobbaco.
A very nice and unique blend

Product: Peterson Irish Cask 50g
I smoked this blend when it was made in Belfast (Murray). It has changed for the better, I think. There is burley in the blend and the perique is done well. It is not sharp and with a filter pipe it med-full bodied with a wine like sweetness. Bette... Read More
Tasty enough
July 05, 2021
Product: Peterson Irish Cask 50g
It was different. The sherry casks added a nice element. Didn't leave me hankering for more of it. I'll keep a tin on hand for the occasional itch but it will not be a frequent buy.

This was the first Peterson/STG blend I ever tasted (funny how many other reviewers state the same), after I found a local tobacconist puffing it as he worked. I was taken in by that room note, and felt compelled to inquire. After I burned through ma... Read More

Product: Peterson Irish Cask 50g
I think I am content to know, crumble cake version is C&D's Night Train, Ribbon version is Irish Cask. STG knows how to make a Ribbon cut with right amount of moisture. The taste hardly changes overtime, and even tho this is not an aromatic, the virg... Read More

Product: Peterson Irish Cask 50g
This is a fine tobacco blend! I ordered more than one tin and the second one I opened was a little dry for Irish Cask. However it still was better than some I have had. Good stuff!

I keep this on hand. I smoke different blends too but if I could only have one, this is it. I haven't tried any since the name change but i will after my last few times of Oak are gone.
Spicy and Complex
May 06, 2019
Product: Peterson Irish Cask 50g
Oddly, this was one of the first tobacco blends I ever bought and I smoked it exclusively for years. It’s a complex and unique blend with the main notes being peppery and tangy. Always an enjoyable smoke!

It's not my go-to tobacco, but whenever I do decide to smoke this blend it doesn't disappoint. It's a bit of a kitchen sink blend so sometimes it can be hard to pick apart all the different flavors, but overall I find it to be like a good Va/Per wit... Read More

Right off the bat - I knew this would be great. Almost creamy, but mostly sweet wood. It can bite if you smoke it too quick. Will definitely be in my usual rotation
Irish Oak
August 14, 2016
Product: Peterson Irish Cask 50g
I get a woodsy, peppery, red wine taste. On the spicy side. The sherry casks smooth out the flavor and add a little sweetness. Reminds me of Mac Baren Solent Mixture.
Fig & pepper

Dominance of Perique and oak.
January 07, 2016

The tin nose is a delicious plum and fig aroma from Perique, a splash of sweetness, followed by a pleasant hay and bread aroma from the Virginias. Beautiful bright tobacco, quite evenly cut, with some darker ribbons of English Cavendish. The Periq... Read More

This one isn't for the faint hearted. If you're looking for something that tastes like candy, this isn't for you. If you're a man and like strong peppery tobacco then you'll enjoy this one. It's my everyday smoke, I venture out and try others but alw... Read More
Interesting!

Product: Peterson Irish Cask 50g
Was thinking of this as an alternative to normal Virginia/Perique-Mixtures. And if that is what you are looking for, than look no further. If smoked from a rather wide bowl you can taste virginia and nice floral notes. Try it!
sharp, dry

where do all those tobaccos go? To harsh with no development in flavour profile
bitter
March 18, 2015
Product: Peterson Irish Cask 50g
I found this tobacco a bit to bitter for my likings, I will admit I am a noob and will continue to smoke the rest of the tin until it Is gone just so I can make a more educated opinion
bit too strong for beginner like me
March 13, 2015
Product: Peterson Irish Cask 50g
this is the second flavor from the Peterson pipe tobacoo line that I have not been a fan of, I am relatively new and am not going to give up on this, but I am going to save it for a later date when I can handle a stronger smoke

Good tobacco. Good taste. When I'm smoke it I've tasted of woody oak barrel. Smoke it in medium fired don't let it too moist, clean inside your pipe you use before smoke it. You'll get a good taste.

I quite enjoy Irish Oak and I'd consider purchasing it again if available in larger quanties and/or bulk.

Product: Peterson Irish Cask 50g
A perfect balanced flavor of lightly sweet vanilla and woody oak. It has quickly become a standard in my rotation. As others have stated, it will bite if smoked too hot or too moist (I have experienced both) - take your time, let it dry out, and enjo... Read More
Uncomplicated and Enjoyable
March 13, 2013
Product: Peterson Irish Cask 50g
A sweet nuttiness, and subtle vanilla hints with the perique pepperiness sneaking in only long enough to let you know it is there. Sip this one, however, or it will give you a bite.
very nice
September 29, 2012
Product: Peterson Irish Cask 50g
I like this tobacco. It has a wonderful full tobacco flavor enhanced by the mild vanilla-like oak flavor and a light raisin-like hint. I always keep a few tins stashed. It WILL bite if smoked to fast.
