I just checked Smoking Pipes and the only Dunhill in stock is 5 tins of Three Year Matured. The end for Dunhill availability is nigh. (And, thanks to Pipes and Cigars for their blowout sale on Dunhill Standard Mixture!)

I'm glad I was able to get some while it was still around. I have about 45 tins of all types of Dunhill. I missed the McClelland and Esterica boats by a very small margin and won't pay an arm and a leg to try something that's not readily available.

The modern iterations paled in comparison to the Murray's era. Though I've got a lifetime's supply of Elizabethan and all of the McClelland tobacco I'll ever need, Pease and other blenders keep me well supplied in favorites.

I have maybe three tins of each, plus a tall stack of Nightcap and Ready Rubbed(blends I knew I liked). Blends I smoked my first weekend as a pipesmoker..
I can already imagine getting a little emotional 10-15-20 years from now when I crack a tin. Little time capsules. Like a photogragh of friends long gone, that you can still have a brief conversation with.

Since I haven't had a strong bond with Dunhill tobacco, I'm hoping I won't miss much by trying the Charatan blends.

The hardest hits for me, almost right away, were EMP and Nightcap. Last I checked 4-5 Dunhill brands still being offered at P&C; Some of them I do enjoy.😁

I have two tins of Royal Yacht. I hated it when I tried it, but at the time I had only been smoking for a week or so. I'm almost afraid to open a tin in the future and find that I love it. Haha

After some consideration, I don't believe I have more than a few tins of Dunhill in total. Perhaps two tins of Dark Flake, two of Light Flake (dunhill flake) and a large jar of pretty old Nightcap. The jar of Nightcap will likely be for sale in the future.

I stocked up on EMP, 965, Aperitif, and Nightcap last summer, before they all dried up. I have many tins of each. Plus more than a pound each of bulk Nightcap, and EMP, in Mason jars too. I was able to also stock up on Durbar, London, Standard, and Ye Old Signe tins this year while they are still available. I love Dunhill's blends and I'm sorry to see them go. Pretty well stocked up though. Glad I was warned before the stock ran out.

(And, thanks to Pipes and Cigars for their blowout sale on Dunhill Standard Mixture!) I've never smoked it. I bought ten tins. My son is a big Night Cap fan. I bought ten tins so I can give him a tin for Christmas every year for the next ten years. ( I hope I am around long enough to do it)

I have about 100 tins of assorted Dunhill a right now. I don’t see a need to buy more although I was tempted to get it up to 150 tins. I’d rather use this as an excuse to spend the money on other baccys and broaden my horizons a bit

I was surprised RY soldout online as fast as the big three. It moved slower during the Murray/Orlik transition. I saw this 4oz tin of vintage RY at last weekend. The tin looked slightly puckered so the tobacco is probably perfect. I didn't ask the price.

The final sale of soon to be banished tobacco blends is coming unless the courts or Congress does something.😁

That line sounds vaguely familiar … LOL!
It was purchased already jarred around 5 years ago and was likely a few years old at that time … soooo 7-10 years? Pretty sure there is a large jar of Frog Morton from that same batch as well. Are you interested in buying older English blends?
