Nice, where did you get the light flake? I haven't seen that particular tin on the normal sites. The one's I see now look like this :

Did you "sell" your first born to afford all that tobacco. What a haul! ENJOY!

Nicely aged finds, I got a tin from 2008 of Domincan maduro glory from Rich my first order, it's a great blend, the dominican glory will probably be similar, it's just a nice Va blend, nothing cigar like about it. The 2006 Royal Cajun as well, awesome stuff, I had the special from 2008. It's an overlooked blend definitely. It's nice a smooth, if you like that the dark is really really nice as well. Very nice natural smoke, nothing but pure tobacco goodness.

protestantpiper, I'm not sure if the Dunhill Light Flake is still being manufactured. I no longer see Dunhill Standard Mixture Medium either. It came from eBay.

I have tried absolutely none of those except for the EMP.
I'll be over at 6pm. I like my steak medium rare.
Nice haul!

Looks like a "B" on the tin, but it's Hamborger Veermaster

I would have made the same mistake. Nice haul. Inspect those vintage tins well. I would probably store them in an air tight plastic tote just to be safe.

I don't think you can put "Light" on blends from the UK anymore. That might be why we don't see it here.

 

[protestantpiper]

Sean, makes sense. In fact I don't think you can do it here either.

MacBaren Mixture Modern
This is the only snip that I can find relating to the "light" and "mild" phrases on labels.

 

[durham270]

Jah76, T-Bone or Filet Mignon? I only know how to grill steaks medium rare so anytime!

Roth,
P.S.: Looks like a "B" on the tin, but it's Hamborger Veermaster
Thanks for pointing that out. Sure looked like a B to me but then again all B's come out sounding like a V in German!
