About This Pipe Tobacco
When Dunhill announced it would no longer be producing tobacco, pipe smokers rued the loss of some of their favorite mixtures. Thanks to Peterson, however, those beloved blends are still available. They're the same recipes and feature the same tin art as Dunhill's, just re-branded for Peterson.
Elizabethan Mixture was originally an old Murray, Sons and Co. pipe tobacco blend, which Dunhill had recreated by the master blenders at Orlik. Like the original, Dunhill's Elizabethan combined pressed, darkened Virginia tobaccos with a dose of Perique to create an easy-to-enjoy blend with a tangy character and a bit of peppery spice. Thanks to Peterson, the Dunhill blend is still available, much to the joy of Virginia/Perique lovers.

Not impressive considering its background

nce of Perique in my VaPers. Flavor seemed rather superficial, not deep at all.
I really didn’t like taste of the blend in my meerschaum pipes. It was acceptable in briar pipes regardless of size and shape.
Altogether, I found this blend acceptable but rather mediocre considering its background. There are much better VaPers available IMHO....Read More

Was my daily driver for a long time, sadly no longer sold in Europe. Whenever I have friends visiting the states, I beg them to bring home some tins, so for a few months every year, it still is my all day everyday blend. Love it, the truest of true vapers

geous ribbon cut remind me of a forest floor during late Autumn. Brown, Copper, Gold and Mahogany are all entwined in this blend.
This mixture has several flavorful phases that will accompany you from beginning to end. Just as in the tin aroma, the Perique takes a leading role here, giving this blend a firm stewed fruit backbone and follows it with prominent spice in both the retrohale and ambient smoke. The Virginia's flavor profile here is more full bodied than is discernible by its fragrance alone. At about the halfway point, the spice really evolves and grows in power along with the more bready, creamy nuances of the Virginias.
It does not show any signs of a topping or casing flavor. What we have here is honest, pure and simple tobacco flavor here. It's a true testament to fine, artistic blending.
It is a stout blend to be sure. I adore it as a first bowl of the day with a hot steaming cup of black coffee. The nicotine level is moderate to the very beginnings of strong. The room note is tolerable, but thick and has its own depth of character as well.
I typically smoke this in my smaller churchwarden, because I feel a bit like a dragon, trying to hoard her treasure. Today I filled my Barracini Onda Marrone Apple so that I could get a larger display of the blend's profile. What a truly pleasurable experience....Read More

A grain of salt

and many agree that elizabethan mixture could be considered the standard off which you can judge other Virginia blends.
So I picked up a 10 with my last smoking pipes order. Wow the tin note is great smells of figs and raisins. It does not need to be dried and packs well and behaves great in the bowl with few lights.
Now time to talk about the smoke, I can appreciate it but I just can’t seem to get into it. The floral and raisin fruit notes are so soft on the pallet, if I did not retro hail most of my puffs I really didn’t get much flavoring. Again though take this with a grain of salt because I think I’m just a piper who prefers the bold smokiness of English blends over the mellow floral and fruity notes of Virginia blends.
The tobacco was definitely top notch though as it burned super cool and if you’re worried about tongue bite at least for me and this blend I didn’t have any tongue bite from the Virginia’s.
This also did not turn me off from ever trying a Virginia blend again will definitely be looking for other blends that are a little more boulder in the Virginia category...Read More
