Luxury Blend, Masterfully Blended

Product: Peterson Irish Dew 40g
Definitely! This a superb smoke anytime of day or night. This is an aro but it's more like an Aro that non-Aro smokers would burn when they crave an Aro, if that makes sense ;) Mild, sweet, cool, rich in fruity sweetness and vanilla undertones on ... Read More

When I first opened the pouch, didn't really smell any of the chocolate, vanilla or whiskey. Then when I started to smoke like the second or third bowel of it, I started to taste the wonderful notes of delicious chocolate and a small hint of vanilla ... Read More

Simple but good.

Product: Peterson Irish Dew 40g
A pretty simple blend. Burley dominant but the VA is definitely there. A bit snappy if you smoke it too fast. Has a nutty, toasty taste and a pleasant mild chocolate aroma. It's a bit one dimensional to me but something I enjoy to break the monotony.... Read More

I like this blend. It has a flakey pastry taste, with hints of berry notes, and a slight citrus note at first light. The taste is consistent with a slower cadence, but can get harsh if puffed to fast.
Lacks flavor

Product: Peterson Irish Dew 40g
When I first opened the pouch, it smelled great, a little cocoa, whiskey and good virginia/burley tobacco. However the pouch note didn't really translate to the smoke. It bit me a little and I found it to be kind of bland and boring. I'm going to add... Read More
a touch perique to this tobacco and jar it up for a while, to revisit in a year or 2. I'll give it 2 stars, just because I have had worse! Read Less
I DON'T GET IT
April 17, 2016
Product: Peterson Irish Dew 40g
After opening the pouch I found very little aroma. As a matter of fact, it smelled quite bland, as I was expecting some of the fruit/vanilla that this product is advertised as having. It lights easily in my Savinelli half-bent apple, but I was very u... Read More
nimpressed with the flavor and aroma. It's almost as if this tobacco was packaged without the flavoring! The chocolate showed up faintly in the aftertaste, but I perceived absolutely no "vanilla" or "blossom" notes. If the taste and aroma is supposed to be light, then it has definitely floated away. The burley has a bit of a bite, but as a straight tobacco it is of good quality. I have found Peterson tobaccos to be either great or a bit non-distinctive. This is one of the latter. I favor Connemara much more than Irish Dew. I'll give it another try, but I'm not keeping my hopes up. I just don't get what Peterson was up to, here. Read Less

烟气很饱满，劲道足而不呛，燃烧平顺，就是风味不对路，其他白肋也尝试了几款，都不怎么喜欢，看来不适合这种品类，但这个是最满意的了！

This tobacco is advertised as having "otes of whiskey, fruit and floral essences." I tasted no such things. Even the pouch note was bland. I questioned if it really was an aromatic or not. I was unimpressed. The 3 * nicotine strength also w... Read More

Fantastic blend great whiskey notes

Product: Peterson Irish Dew 40g
My favorite blend for a cool smoke with the whiskey notes coming forward but a mild sweetness and generally smooth back notes. Definitely will be keeping it my standard rotation.
Simply great

Fantastic blend... Nuts and chocolate hints with vanilla undertones. Great with a cup of coffee on a crisp morning.

Why does this only come in pouches and not tins or bulk? Besides that I really enjoy it a lot
Nice BurVa/VaBur
April 11, 2021
Product: Peterson Irish Dew 40g
I don’t get much of the whiskey or fruits supposed to be forward in this blend — neither in the tin nor in the pipe — but it is definitely a nice, *very smooth* burley/Virginia blend. Most blends of this sort are very burley-forward with barely any V... Read More
irginia present, but Peterson has done an excellent job of balancing the two. A bit mild for a medium blend, but still quite satisfying. The baking bread and hay of the virginias, along with the toasty cocoa of the burley conspire to form something delightfully relaxing. Smoked in a Peterson system bent apple spigot, this is a combo not easily overlooked. Four stars. Read Less

I dont really notice the chocolate, the vanilla or the Blossom fruit. I do notice a hint of irish whiskey and smoked walnut as the main profile.
It's a very smooth, good quality smoke, just not what i was expecting.
Apricots and Hay

Product: Peterson Irish Dew 40g
Irish Dew is a very simple, but very, very delicious Virginia Tobacco. I found it to be my favorite tobacco for summer smoking, particularly on lazy Saturday afternoons in the shade. It can tend to burn a little hot if you're not careful, so slow smo... Read More
king is best. I find this to be the best tobacco I've tried that comes in pouches, and since it's so cheap, it makes a great blend to throw in a pipe roll or briefcase for odd occasions when I want a smoke. The smoke doesn't linger, and is overall very pleasant. There's a good, honey, apricot sweetness, with just a hint of spice. The room note is a lot like fresh bread and smoldering hay (maybe not the most helpful, I know but it's the best I can think of). I find that it goes delightfully well with Monkey Shoulder Scotch as well. I would love to get this in larger tins, or even bulk bags, but don't let the pouch stop you. It is well, well worth the price of admission. Read Less
The Peterson Rifleman Finally Suffers An FTF

Product: Peterson Irish Dew 40g
I’ll first say that I’m an avid fan of Peterson/STG, as I am of Cornell & Diehl. I’ll try every blend these companies produce. But Irish Dew did not prove to be exactly dew-like, if you catch my drift. The ribbons are nice to the eye, thick strands o... Read More
f dark golden brown. But the room note at char light is cigarette smoke. Soon after the char light it was still apparent I wasn’t pleased.
Though this is supposed to be an aromatic, I could identify that vanilla and chocolate flavor only halfway through the bowl, and it proved elusive as it disappeared after no more than two draws, then returned about ten minutes later, then vanished and never again resurfaced for the remainder of the Group 5 bowl I was smoking. A recurring thought through the three bowls of Irish Dew I’ve smoked: “Did Peterson really blend this? I guess it did...” For the entire blend seems uncharacteristic of them, in terms of its quality. It seems more akin to cigarette tobacco than to its sisters, Irish Cask and Royal Yacht. Well, even the best actors often deliver a dud film, or a “bomb”. And even the best rifleman or gun expert can experience an FTF—a failure to fire, or a failure to feed. This is that moment for Peterson, I believe. 3.5 stars. Read Less

Just FYI, I'm not great at tasting tobacco when smoking. I mostly just taste smoke and whether it's light or heavy lol but this is my two cents...
First off, I enjoy the tobacco pouch it comes in rather than a tin because it fits nicely into my leat... Read More
her piperoll. Makes it easily transportable, but nothing a ziplock bag couldn't take care of.
Per the description, I can definitely pick up the hints of vanilla and whisky as I opened the bag, and I also sensed some fruity undertones. (To me anyway.) The tobacco seemed to be about the perfect moisture content right out of the bag. Therefore it lit well and is staying lit well. Other than the second light after the initial of letting the tobacco grow and rest, I haven't needed to relight. Just tamp gently to get the ember down into the fresh tobacco, which is what you want. I found I needed to relight once or twice when I got close to the bottom of the bowl.
I could see this being a go to smoke. It's lightly aromatic, but feels like it fits in perfectly with mild non-aros too thanks to the Virginia and Burley. It's not heavily flavored and carries a bit of heft.
With these characteristics and the price point, it's a GREAT smoke!! I'm enjoying it mucho grande 😁 Stay smoky my friends. Read Less

Absolutely love it
Product: Peterson Irish Dew 40g
It's not for me. The first 3 bowls started out good. Then it turned super harsh and sour. I deep cleaned the pipe, took care of the sour but kept the harsh. Seems more like ordinary cigarette tobacco.
Wonderful all day blend

I bought a pouch of this simply because of the reviews, I wanted to see why it got such poor comments. I opened the pouch and was greeted with a heavy chocolate note from the burley tobacco, and the typical smell you get from Virginia. Upon lighting... Read More
, it stayed lit for a long time the first time, without needing to tamp it down. Didn't smoke wet or hot - I used an unfiltered MM hardwood which has a massive draw.
Toward the end of the bowl, I started to get the pleasant feeling you get from the nicotine. It wasn't very strong, but it was certainly enough for me. I think a lot of people are disappointed with this because the description isn't really anything like the smoke - I must be honest, I could only taste the Virginia and didn't notice any hint of vanilla etc. However I'm not a fan of straight Virginia yet I keep coming back to this, so I must be able to detect something else.
Well done, Peterson, but please change that description on the pouch! Read Less

I found rubbing it out and allowing it to air for awhile produced a most pleasant aroma and smooth pleasant smoke. I found it easy to light and burned completely to the bottom of the bowl.The flavor to me is a sweet vanilla/coconut and very pleasing.... Read More
This will definitely remain in my rotation.
I would have given this tobacco 5 stars if it were offered in BULK! Gotta fill that cellar, Come on Peterson.....!!! Read Less

I was not impressed with my first smoke of the Irish Dew at all. So much so, I showed it to the back and rather forgot about it. However, when my new Peterson Tankard arrived I felt compelled to have the Irish Dew be the first smoke through. This ti... Read More
me I took the time to rub out the ribbons thoroughly first. What a difference this made! All the layers of sweetness, fruit, vanilla and chocolate popped right out. I'd agree with Edward above; an aro for the non-aro smoker. This has become a regular now in my rotation. Read Less
