Differences Among Peterson's: Early Morning Pipe, Nightcap, Mixture 965

[wernerat]

So I got really fond of original oriental by mc connel.
I have over 10 years aged EM NC and m965. And i just can't tell them appart as i probably labled them wrong. Also I don't see much difference in taste. (I might labeld the NC right as it is strong and numbs my cheek a bit) but I m not sure what is EM and 965.
How would you descrive the difference between this 3 blends?

Also is the mc connel oriental much lower on latakia? Cause I enjoy it more then the aged blends.

EMP is milder than 965 with less Latakia and more orientals as I recall. 965 has some cavendish added. Nightcap is a fuller stronger blend. That’s a quick summary.

All three have Latakia and orientals along with VA, however, Early Morning Pipe has considerably less Latakia than the other two. Nightcap also has Perique (which separates it from the others).

And Nightcap has some Perique added which the other two don't.

Beat me to it.

Dunhill Tobaccos are now branded as Peterson, made in the same place in Scandinavia, no change, just different branding.

When 2 are pretty good, and 1 is the best English blend you’ve ever smoked, you’ve found the MM965.

I'll have to smell them to know. I don't bother with labels.

Perhaps your experience will play similar to mine.

Early Morning Pipe is a spring morning, My Mixture 965 a summer afternoon, and Nightcap the winter evening.

Autumn, of course, is missing here, but you'll find it...

Tell me where I can find this Autumn dinner-time blend

If Latakia is optional then Elizabethan Mixture for sure. Strong enough for an after-dinner smoke and full of "autumnal" woody-earthy-leafy flavours.

All classics. Glad the old Dunhill blends are still being produced.
