Peterson Early Morning Pipe

Worth knowing

This classic is probably still known to experienced pipe smokers under the Dunhill banner, as this brand sold the rights to the recipes to Peterson. If you want Latakia flavour without too much oomph, this is the perfect blend for you!

Flavour

The balanced blend of two different Virginias, some Latakia and other first-class Oriental tobaccos strikes a wonderful balance of sweetish-creamy and spicy-spicy facets. The latent "bready" sourness of the Virginia is barely noticeable here, which is evidence of careful fermentation. Multi-layered spicy tones of an "oriental" character are charmingly interwoven with the unmistakable smoky and incense notes of Latakia, which nevertheless lack any penetrating character here. An "only" medium-bodied, strikingly mild English blend!
