Might as well make y'all jealous by mentioning that I have over eighty tins of it socked away. As far as Dunhill tobaccos are concerned, I won't be running out any time soon.
DURBAR MIXTURE
Made in the U.K. in association with Dunhill Tobacco of London
Hand Blended
Qua appearance, it is composed of small shreds in a range of browns. The tin aroma is very Oriental, with a slight hint of fermented sweetness. The taste proves the Turkish content, the sweetness suggests that there may be a touch of Perique in here as well. Whatever Latakia is present is restrained.
It is nicely unbalanced, rich and veering toward an excess of resinous Anatolian leaf (or is it Smyrna?), but not as depraved as the Presbyterian Mixture. Reminiscent of Balkan Sobranie, but sweeter, and less smoky. Definitely a product for the man who likes Orientals.
Think of a pretty young teenager in a light summer dress, all fresh and sparkly and soft.
But there is something else about her - she moves in a way that suggests maturity, and she's spending far too much time with the Wong boys..... Did she just smile at the younger one? Sweetie, I think it's time for a chaperone. And tell her to put on a cardigan - her lacy edgings are visible.
Contradictorily, if you like this mixture, you can't wait for summer to end. It is suited to Autumn. Last week it was much too warm in San Francisco, but yesterday and today have been foggy and considerably cooler. Even chilly enough to bring a blush to pretty golden cheeks.
In short, this tobacco is just about peachy.

Curiously enough, jealousy is not predominant amongst my feelings in learning that you have 80+ tins of Durbar Mixture. Oddly, the knowledge that you have said tins stirs in me absolutely no feelings whatsoever.
Spiros-bhai. I am sad for you. You have no dreams.
How very very very sad.

Do you at least have an Oriental teenager?
Or merely an empty pair of panties, still fragrant to remind you of something?

I'm not a smoker
but
It is an interesting thought
that
pensive
pipe-smokers
are
behind their smoke...
envisaging
GIRLIES
not that I am critical
for I too
like to envisage
GIRLIES
though I manage without the aid of
tobacconists
maybe I'm missing something or maybe not
coz
despite TV ads - as far as I have established -
pipe + girly = Lesbian
lesbian + male & pipe = much smoke no fire

No mistake - that's why Virginia is often blonde, nicotine is a lady, and Latakia is one's dark mistress.
Flake and twist, of course, are soft on sailors.
Tobacco and erotic imagery go hand in hand. Or hand somewhere.
Girlies! Pretty leeltle girlies! No wonder tobacco addicts. You all can't help yourselves. You want to stay warm on cold nights. Clutching knuffles, lighting fires.
It explains why you left your frigid wastelands and despoiled the tropics. Girlies. And somewhere warm.

Delicous, juicy, over the hedge, and totally spanking!

Do NOT smoke it at the local tobacco store.
They don't like smokers there no more.

No smoking at a tobacco store. Who would ever have imagined that?
