I used to smoke Dunhill My Mixture 965, since Dunhill is out of the tobacco business I am looking for a comparable replacement. Suggestions? Where do you buy it?

I've been smoking a blend from Edwards Pipe and Tobacco shops called Scottish Moor. It's been my favorite since 1969. Actually, any of the Edwards blends are good. Give them a try.

Check out Home - Uhle Tobacco Company . I've been ordering from them for over 40 years. Great tobacco and good people to deal with. My favorite is their blend #255, but your taste may be different.

I haven't tried any of the Altadis replacement tobaccos yet but I thought I'd pass along the info. (Was thinking of ordering some of the Amphora substitute but the lone review on that site wasn't too favorable)

Since I've stopped drinking I prefer the Ghetto blend in my pipe. All natural of course.

Never tried any english blends back in the day when I was smoking but I did like Borkum Riff which is a dutch blend.

I have even more pipe tobacco in my basement than ammo. I'm unlikely to run out of 965 in the next decade or two, but if I did I'd restock with "Tuggle Hall" from Craig Tarler:

English Blends

I miss the Balkan Sobranie (even still dream about it). Haven't smoked a pipe in years; sorry to hear Dunhill is gone.
Are Uppmann Corona Majors still around? Caviar Cafe? Troikas? 555 in the yellow tin? Does a Hero still grace our boxes of Virginia tobacco cigarettes?

Sobranie cigarettes can be had in Europe, but they aren't the same. I liked the Black Russians. They used to use tobacco grown around Sarajevo. After the war, they had to change sources and they didn't taste the same.

I like the Night Cap.

That reminds me, I need a new pipe, burned a hole in my Eriksen so I've been smoking pipe tobacco rolled up in cigarette papers.

I'm poor, so I mostly smoke the stuff in the big bags from Walgreens, only 11 bucks and they last a month. Shrug. Dunhill is good stuff though. Save the tins, people will buy them to use for SAS style surival kits and what not.

I don't know of a replacement for Dunhill 965 as pressed Virginia tobaccos are my cup of tea. Of the English blends I have tried I like McClelland's Frog Morton the best.

I used to wonder into Tobacconists when ever I traveled, and would usually come home with a new blend or two. Now that I retired a few years ago, I pretty much have stuck to the canned tobaccos. The one I keep finding myself going back to is an old cheap one.....Granger. I just like the fact that it doesn't have a bite, and I can smoke a few bowls a day without getting tired of a strong aroma. The heavier aromatic tobaccos seem to burn the hell out of my tongue these days, and so the plain ones are now my preference.

Truth be told, I find myself enjoying a fine cigar (with a nice Single Barrel Jack Daniels on the rocks) more than the Pipe these days.

I have tried the new Dunhill. This is better.

Thanks to Pilgrim for his generousity in sharing a sample of his favorite tobacco with me. Cheers to all my fellow pipe smokers on the forum this holiday season.
