Dunhill Strikes Back
Categories: pipe tobacco Dunhill
When we were ‘blessed’ with second coming of Dunhill tobaccos last Thanksgiving most of us were as concerned about whether or not we would see another dry spell as we were elated at the return of this luxurious line of fine tobacco. Obviously, we were right to worry.
And so we blew through our inventory of nearly 5,000 tins of tobacco in a matter of a few days, record time for us at Smokingpipes.com. Then it was all gone. So we waited.
Around Christmas we received a smattering of Flake and Standard Mix from our vendor. This is not what we were waiting for.
Today is what we have been waiting for: ‘Nightcap’, ‘Early Morning Pipe’, ‘965’ ‘Royal Yacht’ and ‘London Mixture’ are back. We have a ton.
Let’s see how fast it goes this time.

Re: Dunhill Strikes Back
Has anyone heard when the rest of Dunhill's blends will be available?

So far there's no reason to believe that they ever will be.

Re: Dunhill Strikes Back
The British government has been going after higher potency pipe tobacco for years, is that why we lost some brand names like Craven Mixture and is it why Samuel Gawith is getting so hard to get? Your thoughts on this is most appreciated.
