Dorchester is topped with apricot and raisins. If you want to try one less topped, there are plenty to choose from. As noted, Sutliff Match Victoria. Also Viprati, Solani 633, St. James Flake, D&R A.P. Rimboche, D&R S.J. Rimboche, Sutliff 1849, Watch City Old Dominion, Watch City #558, and a bunch more.

Wilke Lizzie Blood Virginia (light on the perique, but has a very nice Blood Orange topping).
Thanks for pointing out that raisins note Jim there was something I was wondering about.

I tend to think alot of Esoterica blends have that same sort of apricot/raisin topping. Dunbar seems to be alot like Dorchester just maybe with less perique.
I also get that same sort of funky sweetness from Margate and even Penzance to some extent. They're all very "Germainy" in a good way. Maybe its not a common topping they use on everything but they all have a familiarity with each other one way or another.
