At the end of a long day, there is nothing better than sitting down and smoking a full flavored blend to melt away the stress of the day. For this occasion, we strongly suggest smoking Nightcap from Peterson. This blend was designed for smoking at the end of a long day and has been blended with Latakia, Perique, and Virginia is a very heavy and oily manner. We suggest smoking this full flavored blend with a stiff drink in the hand.

Doesn’t want to bite, cherries nice, tastes of the smell of pine (like the sap) and also of the smell of straight wood!
Tin note is very campfire like and a little of wood (as in unburnt) and pine sap smell, while the pine note is comparatively much more prominent in the flavor. It’s not quite like it inverts the forwardness of the pine and wood with the campfire, but the flavor makes that piney and woodiness much more prominent than the smell does. A great smoke for when you know what you want to taste. Not saying it lacks complexity, but it provides a smoking experience with very few question marks for me as a new smoker. I know I want to taste the piney woody goodness when I got pack a bowl of this one, and I do, every time, It might be my favorite pipe tobacco right now out of all 10 kinds I have on hand currently. Delivers on exactly what I want from it, every time I load a bowl. The most confident 5 stars I’d give to any of the tobaccos I have in hand currently.

Used it for years -- first when it was Dunhill. Mix it with Early Morning Pipe for an all-day smoke.

Nightcap
Strong but pleasant flavor, somewhat unusual. Repeat buyer.

Don't let the tin note fool you
I'm new to pipe smoking, and upon first opening the tin, I thought I was going to hate this blend... boy was I wrong! The tin note stank. As a newbie, I was looking for those sweet, fruity aromas that is typically associated with pipe tobacco. I thought, "I spent money on this, I might as well give it a try" I was blown away! Smoking this blend is akin to walking through an evergreen forest. It is fresh, yet smooth, and VERY relaxing. I experienced NO tongue bite, something I've yet to master. It produces thick, smooth bellows, and I was surrounded by pine, spruce, and evergreen aromas. I didn't need to relight. Not only did this blend win my affections, but it opened me to a whole new category of English, and non-aromatic blends. I'm now shopping for new English blends that I can try. I'll never look back.

One of the best so far
Very nice and smooth scent, burns really good.

Peterson’s Nightcap
Very good. I find it milder than advertised. Not in a negative way.

Nightcap
A superb smoke, and it is wonderful to find a source for it now.

Delicious English with a bit of spicy Perique
Awesome any time of day, but the tin design makes me want it more in the evenings. An excellent English blend with some spicy Perique, mix of ribbon and flake, it tastes delicious and burns smoothly.

A satisfying smoke
How can one evaluate a tobacco in words, when it’s so driven by taste? I came to this mixture from a long favorite- then under Dunhill - Early Morning Pipe. I’ve also given Three Nuns a try to my enjoyment. All good non-sweet blends but I’m hanging with Nightcap.
