Ok I know Dunbar is a Va/Per and Stonehaven is a Virginia/Burley mixture but I'm curious of what people's opinions are of the 2.
I recently came across some Dunbar. Like most Esoterica tobacco's it was very moist. After a good hour or 2 of drying it smoked really really well. In fact this is one of the first Va/Per's that I really loved. I found it to be very sweet and almost fruity. I guess that fruitiness comes from the Perique as it can tend to have a plum smell to it. I know Perique usually has a peppery taste to it but I haven't really seen much of that in Dunbar.
I was curious as to how it compares to Stonehaven as I just recently ordered a pound of the stuff. After trying unsuccessfully for probably 6 to 8 months I finally got some from P&C. I just hope that it really shows up or I could be putting my cart before the horse.
