Early Morning Pipe by Peterson is considered a standard of measure for what a light English blend should be by a large number of experienced pipers. The flavor is sour, sweet, and tangy more than smoky. Because of the balance of the constituent tobaccos, the smoker is able to discern subtle flavors.

Pleasant first bowl blend
This is a very nice "first bowl" blend. I usually smoke my first one early evening, and this is a good starter before I move on to my favorite heavy English blends. I tend to like a lot of Latakia and Perique, and IMHO this could use a bit more of both. But that is just my personal preference - I definitely recommend this blend for an early smoke, or for new smokers.

Meh. No Thanks.
I don't get what all the fuss is about. Seems very ordinary to me. Plain to even a little sub-par for my tastes. Lots of other options I much prefer.

Early Morning Pipe
I’m new to pipe smoking. As a very young boy my grandfather smoked a pipe and I loved the aroma. I hated cigarette smoke and I never smoked before. I’m 56 now and reminiscing over my childhood so I decided to follow in my grandfather’s footsteps. I chose Early Morning Pipe for my first choice because the reviews and feedback I read said it’s a good all around tobacco for beginners. I agree and I will say it will be in my rotation for sure as I journey into pipe smoking.

Very good
While I've been away from pipe smoking for many years, this was my go-to tobacco in the past. Now that I have picked up my pipes again, I find that this blend still satisfies my taste and is a very good all-day smoke as well.

Great tobacco
Really good blend, latakia is not overpowering.

Peterson "Early Morning Pipe"
Very mellow, mild flavor, with a fairly substantial nicotine hit toward the end. Can run a little hot if you work it too hard.

Classic
Does this tobacco need another review when there are already 38 that average to a 5 star? Yes. Yes, it does. Especially if it helps get more in stock so I can get more tins in my stash. This early morning musty hay smell is delightful at any time of day. Not the lightest of blends but on the lighter side - my preference. Delicious. I'm with the crowd on this one.

Excellent mix
Excellent mix, although I feel that the Virginias need to age, smooth and with a good room, totally recommended for beginners and for those who want a fresh mix.
