The coins rub out beautifully..the taste is amazing. I LOVE this Va/Per. Escudo is great and this is better.

Beautiful coins indeed and superior tin smell. Herbal tones and fig notes. I personally prefer this to Escudo, but they are almost similar. Very enjoyable cool VaPer Smoke. No bite. In the rotation !
Can't get Enough

When they switched from "Deluxe Navy Rolls" to "Navy Rolls", I have a feeling that something shifted. Maybe it's an aging thing, maybe a different batch of tobacco, etc. But I agree with Andrew H. below that they have a consistenc... Read More
y issue.
But how would I know this? Because I smoke a tin of this stuff a week. I think it is superior to Escudo in depth. It is molasses sweet, grapefruit citrusy, but never acidic. It has green pepper notes and definitely errs on the side of old hay (and chocolate malt?!) rather than fresh-cut grass. It is dusty and fresh simultaneously. When it hits, it hits so perfectly that it becomes addictive. I pray that they fix whatever issue they're having. I'd rather go without for a time and have the darker African Virginias back, if indeed that's the case. When it's right, it's in the top three for me. Read Less
One of my favourites.

Product: Dunhill Navy Rolls 50g
Neatly arranged, large Curly Cut discs in tin. Moisture is ok, as always with Dunhill. I do not rub it out, I just stuff the coins into my pipe for best results. Cool and excellent burning conditions. First class selection of Virginias. Virginia is d... Read More
ominant throughout the bowl, mainly providing bread notes and little hay and very little earth notes. Perique is always there, on a rather small scale. It donates flavours of damson and dried fruit, no pepper. I gather, more Perique would easily overpower the tasty Virginias. The sweetness is just right for me, I would dislike more.
ESCUDO NAVY DE LUXE is obviously a sibling of DE LUXE NAVY ROLLS. Both are manufactured by STG Scandinavian Tobacco Group, by the way. It is very interesting to compare these two! You will find many subtle differences. But I am not going into this here.
DE LUXE NAVY ROLLS is a delicious Va/Per with benchmark qualities. Lots of pipe smokers refer to this mixture when describing or comparing high end Va/Pers. If you are a great Perique lover, you may pick a mixture with more Perique. If you favour a top Virginia in the lead, always accompanied by some Perique, go for it. I shall definitely keep on with this mixture. Read Less
Thin I got a bad batch.

Look I love Navy rolls. I mean I really, really love them. You can read my review down below and tell that. So I purchased 4 tins recently. I opened two to jar up for my daily rotation. Upon opening both tins I wasn't greeted with the familiar sweet ... Read More
rich coins usually associated with Navy rolls. The coins were drier and lighter shaded than before with barely a tin note. I had to try them to compare. What I found paled in comparison. Taste was below average Virginia with no perique influence along with a hot burn and a chalky ashy aftertaste. Also, tongue bite. Now look this alarms me cause I smoke a lot of Navy Rolls. I'm hoping this was a bad batch, as I'm sure it is. But if this is the new blend along with the new tin art you can count me out. I even emailed STG to let them know I think they have a QC issue.

Best Tin Note ever
December 12, 2016
By: Vince D.
Product: Dunhill Navy Rolls 50g
The tin note is just fantastic, though I had a four year old tin as opposed to a fresh one. This is a great smoke for VaPer lovers, but still not as good as Escudo.
Not the same

IMHO nothing to do with Escudo and,by the way,more expensive.I am very disappointed.
The most well-balanced Tobacco

Well Balanced!!!! The nobleman in pipe tobaccos, your can tell all of the naunce but perfect balanced. It is kind of tobacco that call all you attention at the first time you smoke it, but not ask for your attention.

I love these Navy Rolls. I don't smoke them everyday but when I do get the Envie ( Cajun for craving) I can't get enough. Take 2 coins and fold and twist down into my Tanshell Canadian or my Cardinal House Liverpool and enjoy. Just great dark tobacco... Read More
flavors. When I first smoked this blend I thought they'd be similar to Escudo and boy was I wrong. Deeper, Darker and more piquant. Great after lunch or later in the evening. It really is a pinnacle of what a Va Per could and should be. Amazing! Read Less

I'm glad I bought multiple tins when I decided to try this blend. It is a tasty and smooth smoke. The va is more present than the perique in my opinion but it is a well balanced blend. Presentation is beautiful. Lights and burns very well. Will be a ... Read More

I found this tobacco to be first place in its class. The VA/Per coins are a perfect size, there is just the right amount of Perique, and it's just an all around enjoyable experience in the pipe and on the tongue. Dunhill hit one out of the park with ... Read More

Great Re-Release
March 15, 2016
By: Ross Arlen T.
Product: Dunhill Navy Rolls 50g
Boy am I glad they put this out. Started to feel that Dunhill was addicted to Latakia and strange ready-rubs like Yacht.
Look, this stuff is great. There's not a lot of complexity beyond the normal excellent Virginia: sweet feed, molasses, hay, old ... Read More
leather, maybe some sort of dark, dried fruit. The overwhelming impression that I get, however, is of tobacco. Irreducible, irreplaceable, perfect planty tobacco. To me, there is no higher praise. Read Less

Great tobacco

By: Aaron S.
Product: Dunhill Navy Rolls 50g
This was my first experience with perique. The first two times I tried it, I failed miserably lighting and keeping this tobacco lit. However, that was user error and once I let the tobacco dry out about 15 minutes and I crumbled up the coins, this to... Read More
bacco was great and stayed lit for a long time. Very enjoyable on a snowy, winter day with a cup of coffee. I didn't notice bite and the N factor was mild. Read Less

披着Dunhill外衣的ESCUDO

无论包装和草质、味道上都和ESCUDO几近相似，草是很好的草，但华丽转身后卖高价显得不厚道。

In Germany where you cant get your hands (at least easily) lay on Escudo this is THE option in the Virginia/Perique-Erea. But compared to the great "E" this is a very strong second place and no matter what you have to like the rolls (aged o... Read More

Good Virginia/Perique
March 20, 2015

Product: Dunhill Navy Rolls 50g
This is a good blended. Before you smoke you'll see a note on the tin "HAND CRAFTED FROM THE WORLD FINEST TOBACCOS" and after you smoke, You'll beleived.
Recommend for people who love Va/Per
For me it's good.
A Marque VaPer

A solid staple of the Virginia-Perique blending style. It has some lovely hay and grassy and natural fruity flavors from the Virginia and a nice peppery flavor from the Perique. It's a bit on the moist side, so a bit of drying time is perfect. It loa... Read More
ds well and burns well. No tongue bite at all. It is a bit on the stronger side, so if you're vulnerable to lady N then make sure you have a bite to eat before sitting down to enjoy a bowl. If you're looking for a solid VaPer, give this a go! Read Less
It's okay...

I thought I was smoking a cigar in my pipe because this tobacco tasted like one. That's not necessarily bad, but I think this one is not quite for me.
My favorite of all the Dunhill blends
July 25, 2013
By: Ian D.
Product: Dunhill Navy Rolls 50g
I enjoy most Virginia blends but I believe this one stands out to me specifically because of the Perique. I have been finding that I like blends that include Perique, like Frog Morton On the Bayou and Seattle Pipe Club's Mississippi River (my all t... Read More
ime favorite). I do find Navy Rolls very strong in the nicotine category, but then all the the Dunhill blends knock me for a loop if I smoke them a lot. I always rub the coins out and I find that when it is prepared that way the tobacco lights easily and stays lit. I would say this blend is mild as far as flavor, but still satisfying. Read Less
