   Am I correct to assume that Dunhill Tobacco is no more. Can't find a tin of any Dunhill blend anywhere.

   They still produce tobacco, There is just no body to import it. So there is no Dunhill tobacco for us here in the states. That is the way I understand the situation.

   Dunhill tobaccos are now made by Orlik and can be had from European dealers. There is no US importer for them.

   I've always been crazy but it's kept me from going insane.

   Thanks guys. Pretty amazing to me that no one wants to import their blends, considering how popular they are in the U.S. I gotta believe that that will change. Hopefully.

   Sorry guys, but the whole line was discontinued a few years ago, even in Europe. This question pops up all the time and it's not just a case of US distribution - Orlik have ceased production entirely and Dunhill (or whoever owns the rights), won't allow anyone else to produce.

   So, there are still some tins left for sale in Europe if you can get hold of them somehow, but what's left is all there is. Ever.

   PS: I think I saw some on 4noggins for about $30!!!

   British American Tobacco (BAT) owns the Dunhill brand name. I don't know if they are in a hiatus from making Dunhill tobacco or not, but according to Tim Ozgener of CAO International, BAT is still producing it and CAO was in negotiations with BAT to become the new US distributor of Dunhill. Right now the negotiations are at a stand still.
