Smokingpipes now has the "new" STG/Dunhill re-make of two legendary Dunhill blends in stock !! The Aperatif and Durbar blends are now in stock! These were two VERY FINE English/Balkan style blends that I'm sure STG has done a good job recreating. I've ordered a tin of each as I used to smoke them back in the '70s especially the Durbar. They won't be EXACTLY as those of 40 years ago as the tbacco stock used today as well a s the processing done today will be somewhat different but if the efforts STG has done with the other Dunhill blends they make today is any indication, these ought to be VERY SIMILAR and GOOD !! :twisted: :twisted:

Durbar was awesome, as I remember, sharing its place only with Craven Mixture in my past regard. Those two swayed me from aromatics, early in my career as a pipeaholic. Reckon I'll bite.

Yes! I saw those two blends were being reintroduced! I missed 'em the first time around. Time to try them.

On a side note...

I had to think about that one for a second. You outdid yourself that time! :affraid:

I have a sample of each at home, but have yet to try them. I may break one out tonight and try it. I hesitated because of the latakia. I enjoy it when I am in the mood for it, or it is cold out. It has been too hot to smoke a lat blend lately (except Mellow Monk). I will definitely try them this weekend.

I care. This is a brutal thread title mon. :albino:

I also care.

About five years ago (during the Dunhill shortage/embargo/whatever) I found a tin of Durbar at a B&M marked 1.2 off because it was old! I got it for $5. I ended up trading it or selling it or something, since I wasn't into English blends yet.

I'm also anxious to hear a review on these.

I've been "saving" several Durbar tins from the "old' days!!! Just love this stuff!!! Can't believe it hasn't been made in eight years!!! Mine has to be at least that old, probably more like 10-12! May just have to pop a tin and compare the old and new!!! :cheers: FTRPLT
