There used to be other variants of this blend - Std Mixture Medium and Std Mixture Mild. They were pretty decent as well, although I always liked MM965 and Nightcap....but Dunhill's Aperitif was probably my all time favorite of their blends.smokinsteve wrote:I haven’t been smoking any “English” blends lately as I don’t love Latakia. I picked up a few tins of Dunhill Standard mixture at a local B&M the other day not knowing what the blend was. I was somewhat disappointed when I cracked a tin and smelled Latakia. However, tonight I decided to give it a try and smoke a bowl full. I am no longer disappointed that I purchased a few tins of this tobacco. This is a very good English blend. Not extremely Latakia heavy, but the component is ever present.

I have not. Who makes it? Don you know where I might find some? I did have a bowl of GLP quiet nights last night and that was pretty darn tasty!Kip wrote:There used to be other variants of this blend - Std Mixture Medium and Std Mixture Mild.

Since you're not a big latfiend, have you tried Light Flake (or whatever it's called now that the EU banned the use of the word 'light' and 'mild' on tobacco products).

Crap. I forgot....Dunhill (Light Flake was one of theirs) is off the market. Dunhill has gone away several times over the years and come back. Hopefully it'll come back. Remind me if I'm able to come stateside this summer and I'll send you some. I have a decent supply in Florida.smokinsteve wrote:I have not. Who makes it? Don you know where I might find some?

No NEED! Steve, I opened some Light flake a month ago and it was not to my liking. If I still have it, It's yours. It wasn't a bad tin but just not what I remembered in the blend. Apparently my tastes have changed.Kip wrote: ↑Sat May 04, 2019 9:08 pmCrap. I forgot....Dunhill (Light Flake was one of theirs) is off the market.

Wow thanks for the offer! I’m interested to try it. I think I’ll trade with Craig for his stash.Kip wrote:Crap. I forgot....Dunhill (Light Flake was one of theirs) is off the market.

I’ll trade you for it! What would you want in return? I have a decent supply of pipe tobacco and cigars.kurtdesign1 wrote:No NEED!
