Annoyed at Peterson

[plateauguy]

I've been waiting patiently for Peterson to release it's limited summertime blend ~ when they finally get around to it, summer will be over! Can anyone tell me why Peterson is so late with it's limited blends? I'm going to skip to the Christmas blend this year, and forget the summer one.

You might want to check with lordofthepiperings where he got his, because he just smoked some and loved it:

Well, I just got this blend Monday. I've had six smokes of it already. Pretty nice blend as usual. A good quality Virginia leaf balanced with some Burley to make sure it doesn't bite and a bit of Black Cavendish for fun. It has a nice fruity summertime top dressing. As usual it's a nice marrying of top dressing and natural tobacco flavors. Very glad this tin is 100 grams.

We've got our supply in. Though it did come in fairly late this year...

Just went to smokingpipes and placed my order - wouldn't you know that it would come in after I'd checked and posted a rant!!!! I broke down and ordered a Summertime, Special Reserve and a McClelland's Christmas Cheer. That should take care of my PAD until the Peterson Christmas comes in.

Well you know it will taste great, since you have been waiting so long!

Just for the record, we've had Summertime 2014 and Special Reserve 2014 for about 3 weeks now. They are a limited production blend and when they're gone, they're gone.
