Peter Stokkebye - PS403 Luxury Bullseye Flake
Best smoke great value
For me this is an amazing tobacco. It is reasonably priced and a good smoke straight out of the package, however an excellent smoke if you age it even just a little. If you like Comoys No7 cask, its very comparable if not a little stronger. If you like Davidoff medallions its again a very close match if you age a little but in my opinion if you give it a good year or so it is the crown jewel of coins, in flavor,depth and distinction. Do dry out for 10 to 15 mins before smoking. Do rub out well (it is fairly easy) and do expect a little tongue tingle. I cannot recommend this one enough!

Not bad?
For me this tobacco is just "meh" for want of a better word. It has a nice tin note but the rest of it is for me pretty average as a smoke. It does not distinguish itself out from the crowd of many other tobaccos I have tried. For me it was about middle of the road in everything. For me I expect more from a brand like Petersons. Maybe it will age well? I dont know yet. Over all Not bad.....but for me my tobacco should really be so much better than Not bad.

Shockingly good!
Great smoke, lovely flavor, with enough nicotine to back it up. This one for me doesn't disappoint. Good smoke with a nice burn. Highly recommend to anyone!

Peterson - Connoisseur's Choice 50g
One of the Best Peterson in my opinion
One of the top Peterson brands, mild with enough flavor to more than please. No bite and a good burn as well. Strongly recommend if you are looking for a thoughtful smoke rather than a slap in the face, metaphorically that is!

Captain Black - Original 1.5oz
Best everywhere tobacco
In my opinion one of the best OTC pipe tobaccos. It is aromatic and slightly sweet but doesn't push it in your face. Room note is pleasing and is a consistently good smoke from pouch to pouch. This is in my regular tobacco rotation and my go to tobacco if I am away and caught without as it is just so easy to find.

Peterson - Wild Atlantic 40g
Great little smoke
Top smoke in my opinion. A great if not a little mild english blend. It is something that wont blow anyone's socks off smoking, but it is the type of smoke I think almost all pipe smokers would enjoy. This is one made it into my regular tobacco rotation. Strongly recommend to both English and aromatic smokers alike!

Not really me
I so much wanted to like this tobacco and tried really hard to do it. The room note is very old world and masculine. The smoke itself is excellent very much a full bodied english with so much to offer in the flavor department. But for me there is an after taste which to me I can only describe as creasote like, which tends to linger and for me spoil the whole experience.

Villiger - Jamaican Export 1.5oz
Amazing everyday smoke
Great little everyday smoke, I went into smoking this expecting mostly floor sweepings and some tree bark and found a good little tobacco that was a really nice smoke. Its nothing fancy but has enough flavor to hit all the right places for me. I would strongly recommend this to anyone who wants to add something else to their daily routine.

Peterson - Irish Whiskey 50g
Not really me
There is not much I can say about Peterson Irish Whiskey other than its....not bad. But its also not what I would call good. Tin smells nice but as far as the room note goes its fairly bland. No whiskey taste that I could detect and just what I would call an alright smoke. Maybe this one is just too subtle for me. If I was on a desert island and a tin of this washed up on shore I would be as excited about the tin as I would the tobacco.

Captain Black - Premium Edition Midnight Gold 1.75oz
Top pipe Tobacco
Great tobacco that has really grown on me. Took two or three pipe fulls but has really come through. No bite while being smooth and flavorful. One of my favorite budget picks.

Peterson - De Luxe Mixture 50g
Good but not the best for me.
This is not my favorite pipe tobacco but I will say I have not found a Peterson brand tobacco I dont like or cannot smoke. Has a distinctive flavor, reasonably complex without being overpowering. A little bite, reasonable room note, fairly mellow. I would recommend it. Not my favorite, Would I buy again? yes but not regularly.
