Sutliff Dunhill London Mix Pipe Tobacco

This one surprised me. I'm not a fan of Sutliff offerings - never have been. But this... this is unlike anything I've had from them. I've NEVER rated Sutliff at 5 stars, but this is without a doubt worthy of high marks. Dark fruit sweetness predominates. The Red VA with occasional brights, lends a richly sweet dark fruit note which is immediate and consistent throughout. The buttery orientals aren't as sour as I expected, but rather verdant, buttery, a bit tangy and somewhat woody-sweet. The Latakia is in the backgound and its creamy, cedar-laden smokiness is in remarkable proportion to the the VA. This vs Pease's Westminster... there's a difference in quality and composition. Pease is hard to beat but this is right up there due to value. Sutliff's doesn't possess the higher latakia that Westminster does, but the VA and Orientals are right there in sweetness and character - perhaps not as stoved and not as deep as Westminster. Try them both and you'll see what I mean. Most likely, like me, you'll choose Sutliff due to the value. Gonna stock up on this... Westminster is more than double the price of this.

Nice blend. I would order this again.

Has become a favorite of mine. Not as potent as MM965 and not as light as EMP, right in that sweet spot on between. A great smoke.

Excellent blend, this Dunhill London Match. I wanted to see if this would be to my liking as it has many of the tobaccos in Early Morning Pipe and My Mixture 965 tins. A very good smoke, taste, odor, and very glad there is a bulk. This is more middle of the road between Early Morning Pipe and 965 tins.

This is more flavorful than the more recent Dunhill iteration. I understand it's made to be a replacement for Murray's version. An excellent smoke. Mine arrived fairly moist and benefits from some drying time. Highly recommended!
