Dunhill Durbar
(3.21)
This blend contains a high proportion of Oriental leaf, Virginia and latakia. It is a broad cut mixture, giving rich body, but has a slow rate of burn and is medium in strength.

There have been plenty of reviews of this blend, so I'll be brief. While it is not described as such, I would call this a Balkan blend. The range of flavors as you go down the bowl indicate a balanced blend that is, IMHO, one of the better such blends available. Like most Dunhills, it is at the right humidity right out of the tin. Also, like most Dunhills, there are some longer ribbons that I usually break out somewhat. My only problem with Durbar, and I have this problem with most of the Dunhills I've tried, is that it is harsh on my throat, so while I smoke this regularly, I have to reserve it for my smaller pipes. An excellent player in the Balkan field.

This is a tobacco that I cellar . It is tasty and satisfies my moods that require latakia but something different . I usually find myself in a dilemma as to whether to smoke this or Aperitif when I'm in the mood for a latakia change .
