The Best
My everyday smoke, my favorite... Period

Awesome smoke
Smokes very cool and the Latakia gives nice spice to a nice Virginia which makes just sweet enough. Becoming a staple to my tobacco "diet".

PETERSON STANDARD MIXTURE PIPE TOBACCO
The item is as described by the seller.

decent
it is a standard mix. for someone who is just starting to try English tobacco this would be a good start. not at all bad but not something I would keep in rotation. Peterson tins come at a good price point and give the opportunity to try different blends. I don't think the quality is what it could be. tried them all and some are keepers and some not. I do recommend anyone to try them. a decent value for a name brand. Afterall taste is subjective

PETERSON STANDARD MIXTURE PIPE TOBACCO
Any old hand at pipe smoking would recognize the look of this label as a copy of the original "Standard Mixture" offered for many years by Dunhill's of London. I visited their shop there, near Harrod's, in 1985, having been a customer since 1960. I believe they've gone out of the tobacco business for many years. Rumor had it that a Dutch company took over their line of tobaccos, but with a considerable drop in quality and flavor. Peterson has made a valient effort to bring back some aspects of this world famous pipe tobacco. It's "not what it once was", but it is a decent smoke.

Solid English
I tried this blend because the poet, Malcolm Guite, spoke highly of it. It’s a nice English blend that’s not overpowering.
-
Solid Medium English
This is just a solid, medium body, smooth and not harsh English (or in this case Irish) blend. Very satisfying. Smokes great in my Peterson pipes, but then, what doesn't?

5 Peterson Tobaccos
Of ALL the tobacco blends I've smoked, I have 5 favorites. Standard Mixture, EMP, Old Dublin, Night Cap, and 965. They all taste wonderful and equally as important to me, they load easily, they take well to the flame and stay lit. I won't waste my time with any other blends.

All day
The name really does say it all. It is a standard but by no means boring. This blend shows what a good English blend is all about and is perfect for an all day smoke. My biggest storage jar is full of Standard Mix.
