Peterson Sherlock Holmes Pipe Tobacco - 50g Tin

Peterson's Sherlock Holmes is an elementary blend of high quality Virginias and Brazilian Burley. There are no mysteries here unless you're looking for the Oriental tobacco, as it has a slight spice to it but no Orientals. The flavour comes mainly from the Virginias, of which there are Orange, Red and Mysore Indian varieties. They give a sweet, somewhat citrus grassy flavour. The Burley comes through as nutty but doesnt overpower the Virginia. This is a well balanced tobacco which has very little casing. It smokes well without the need to relight often, if at all.

The tin aroma is mildly fruity, of apricot and citrus. You can tell this is a Virginia blend. The ribbon is cut into short lengths that are easy to pack into the bowl. The colouring is of chestnut brown with lighter golden browns and darker sepia to chocolate tones. This tobacco blend is an easy smoke that dates back to the 19th century.
