The Nurnberg brothers Friedrich and Heinrich Kapp, whose elegant Dublin tobacconist first opened for business in 1865 on Grafton Street, Dublin could scarcely have dreamt that they would participate in the birth of a legend.

Friedrich & Heinrich, who christened their shop simply 'Kapp Brothers', soon made a name for themselves making and selling quality Meerschaum and Briar Root pipes. It was not long before Charles Peterson, walked into Kapp Brothers Grafton Street premises armed with a revolutionary pipe and ambitious plans for the future.

There and then, Peterson suggested that the brothers go into partnership with him to turn his pipe dream into the world's dream pipe. They agreed and the company was renamed Kapp & Peterson. Kapp and Peterson went on to become Dublin's most fashionable and respected manufacturer and purveyor of fine smoking products. Pipe and cigar smokers would stroll down to the elegant premises for professional advice on the subtle nuances that determine a good handmade cigar or pipe. The Peterson brand was embraced by politicians, business leaders, sportsmen, artists and writers.

The skills and craft which Charles Peterson applied to his original invention are continued by the dedicated team of craftsmen at Peterson today. Whether as a gift for a friend or for your own personal use, you will appreciate the excellence of the Peterson range of cigars, tobaccos, pipes and smoking accessories.

Peterson’s Connoisseur’s Choice

Peterson's Connoisseur's Choice is an aromatic blend that has a Caribbean feel to it, with fruity pineapple, coconut, vanilla, some citrus and a helping of fine rum.

It utilises a blend of gold and red Virginias, Black Cavendish and the ribbon cut is mixed with broken flake. While smoking this tobacco it is clear there is flavouring added but it isn't an unnatural flavour that argues with the leaves it's put on, or the palate. Although some tobaccos over indulge on the alcohol flavourings, Connoisseur's Choice pipe tobacco has the balance just right.

This blend is recommended to all, from the beginner to the expert, from the aromatic enthusiast to the tobacco purist. Everyone can find something to enjoy from this mixture.

Once you're into the tin, you'll receive a modest aroma of spice, fruits and a hint of rum.

This carries forward into the smoke too. If you have time before you tuck into the enjoyable tobacco, you'll notice broken flake within the folds of ribbon. The golden brown, reddish browns and blacks remind of a chocolate dessert, and certainly this blend is a great dessert smoke.

Also, if you have company, they will hopefully enjoy the scent almost as much as you do.

Being new to pipe smoking, i was looking for 'that' smell which reminds you of a memory of a grandfather smoking a pipe and it being a nice smell. The only baccy i'd tried was a Gawith Hoggath blend from the newsagent and a pouch of Condor, neither of which were particularly pleasant nor did they remind me of 'that' smell. Enter the tin of Peterson Connoisseurs tobacco....and wow, this is the stuff ! The aroma of this is so mouthwatering you feel like eating it, the smell is reminiscent of christmas pudding and cake mix. This is the 1st time i've enjoyed pipe tobacco and i'll be buying more of these Peterson aromatic pipe mixtures. If you are looking for 'that' pipe smell then i'd thoroughly reccommend this tobacco.

I'm a cigar smoker and just started smoking a pipe probably more for quickness of a nic hit , so I bought this connoisseurs choice it's a nice smoke but it's a bit to mild for me ! Nice for an early morning smoke but if your looking for a night time after dinner smoke probably to mild will try something stronger in the Peterson range next time

This is a lovely tobacco that is really sweet and smells a bit like a pudding.

At quite a late age, I have started pipe smoking and decided to give this tobacco a try, the aroma from the first is out of this world and the resulting smoke is sweet and satisfying. If you like aromatics you will love this tobacco.
