Has anyone tried both a Dunhill blend and it's Peterson counterpart? If so, any noticable differences?
I would imagine the Latakia would have to be different no?
Flavored Lat? Isn’t Cyprian in good supply? Syrian is out of production, right?There are some conspiracists who believe the Latakia we are getting nowadays is artificially flavored.

Well that is disheartening.There are some conspiracists who believe the Latakia we are getting nowadays is artificially flavored.

I read several years ago that the warehouse where Syrian Latikia was cured and stored burned and destroyed the entire supply.Flavored Lat? Isn’t Cyprian in good supply? Syrian is out of production, right?
Good because I’m expecting Match Elizabethan (now Victoria) any day nowI think it’s fair to say other than flavor differences due to variations in tobacco crops they are the same. At least Elizabethan was close enough.

Yes. As I never had the Dunhill, I have a bit of an advantage here smile . ThanksIs that the Sutliff blend? It’s a really good blend, but the Perique is a little more “musty” than the Dunhill Elizabethan. Wasn’t a close match to me but still worthy of keeping some on hand. Cheaper too.
So, I looked it up in the German government database. All Dunhill Blends with Latakia do not contain any flavouring, only preservertives and humectant agents. The Kohlhase & Kopp Englishes (like Mc Connell Oriental and the Rattray Blends) contain flavouring, but I would guess not for the Latakia.
