School Me on Dunhill London Mixture

[MattRVA]

Thanks a lot. Is that the way to read any production date, or is it specifically Dunhill?

This has helped me in the past, hopefully it is still current.

BAT, (who owns the Dunhill trademark for use with tobacco), ended their licensing agreement with STG (who has manufactured and distributed the Dunhill-branded tobaccos for years now) a while back. STG continues to produce London Mixture and sells it under to ubiquitous name of Standard Mixture.

London Mixture is not Standard Mixture. They are two different blends. There may be similarities, but they are not the same.

Or so I've been told! Thank you for the correction!

Take this with a grain of salt, because I can't remember the details, but I thought Sutliff made a blend that was the same as, or a good match for, Dunhill' London Mixture. I just can't remember what Sutliff called it, so I can't say if it is still being sold. Does this ring a bell with anyone, or is my memory wrong? This goes back six or eight years.

It's called Match Big Ben

G. L. Pease Westminster is also supposed to be evocative of Dunhill London Mixture “back then.” It’s on my list of things to try.
