The Peterson Christmas series is one of the Irish marque’s longest running seasonal traditions. Since 2009, the collection has given classic Peterson shapes festive seasonal finishes while preserving the practical qualities that make them dependable smoking pipes. The 2026 edition brings broad copper mounts and red and black contrast rustication to a range of Deluxe System shapes, including the large XL5s Calabash.

The XL5s is an enlarged version of one of Peterson’s iconic Calabash silhouettes. Its flared Bell shaped bowl, high angular transition, broad shank, and deep bend create a bold visual profile that is instantly recognizable as Peterson. At 2.11 inches tall, the bowl has a strong hand presence and enough chamber depth for a longer, more deliberate smoke.

Peterson’s Deluxe System construction includes an internal moisture reservoir, graduated bore, and military mount. The reservoir collects excess moisture in the shank before it reaches the mouthpiece, while the P Lip stem directs smoke upward across the palate. The copper military mount allows the stem to be removed while the pipe is still warm, making the XL5s practical for cleaning and regular use.

At 6.43 inches long and approximately 2.64 ounces, the Christmas 2026 XL5s is a substantial pipe with a balanced bent profile. Its 1.81 inch chamber depth and 0.84 inch chamber diameter make it well suited to Virginia, Virginia and Perique, English, aromatic, and Burley based mixtures.
