I’m a big fan of those navy rolls. Can’t imagine how good they are aged that much though. I also love Newminster 400 and 403. Great blends fresh and aged.
Good to see you cracking tins. Not only are you enjoying it but I learn a lot seeing some aged tins! I don't really care for an new vaper, but after acquiring an aged tin, it has mellowed out to the point I enjoy it. That has really shown me how aging tobacco can drastically change the blend. Incredible. Cheers!
I have a few Peterson navy roll tins sleeping not that long only a few years. That Dunhill is a beauty Brian definitely worth collecting especially for the history behind them, I could imagine how awesome that smoke is right now! Thanks for sharing bro..,enjoy
The Dunhill you have is called an opera shape. Small so you can have a smoke at the opera intermission, and an oval shape so it won’t bulge in your suit pocket- yes really 🤔
Nice little Dunhill Opera shape! They were designed to smoke at Intermission, and not put a bulge in your tuxedo pocket. Never smoked the Deluxe Navy Rolls, but have always enjoyed a tin of Escudo every decade or so. Always good to see you, my friend!
Those navy rolls look delicious. I’m not afraid to spend a little bit on good tobacco, I’ll probably be getting myself some of those. I’m enjoying your videos.
Brian thanks for sharing. Like you it’s been a bit since I have had the Dunhill. I need to pull some out and smoke it. Haven’t purchased any Peterson rolls. Blessings brother🍭🐓👶 Looking forward too the comparison. Escudo and Dunhill are in my top 5👍
Oh yeah, looks awesome. I could smell it from here. I grab Escudo when I can for the cellar often, but need to round up to free shipping with some Pete DNR. Oh, and hope your propane isn't insane priced. It's 6.32 per gallon and rising here on island.
Good morning and Happy Saturday my friend. I was rather proud of myself as I resisted buying small batch blends, limited run blends this past week. I did order some more University Flake and Peterson Flake though. I'll have to get some Peterson Deluxe Navy Rolls. That 8.5 tells me I really have to. Have a great weekend. Fishing is about 5 weeks off for me.
Good morning Frank yes it’s pretty good stuff except for the price haha , I hate to admit it but I think your right about fishing season can’t come soon enough. I bout some new furniture for the pontoon and still can’t install it yet just keep LOOKING at it in my shop Baaahhhaaaa
Great “look at it”! I guess we got on you enough lol.. I agree life is short and Mason jars are still cheap 😎.. Great flake I cellar that one as well 👍
Beans ‼️ well funny thing is I had this last night..🤣was not bad at all good to see you my friend take care hope all is good with you and your family take care
I saw in a review recently somebody explained the reason Dunhill "isn't "the same" is mainly because there was a hiatus between productions and the new just hasn't had the time to rest and marry. But I believe it's just as tasty, just needs some time to ripen. Dark Flake is delicious. I miss that.
I just cracked a tin from 2 years ago, lovely! I only hope I can keep some long enough to have this sort of age on, but being over £20 a tin in the UK its pricey
@@beans316 yea, about $30, still nowhere near as bad as Australia, they're paying $100+ for a 50g tin. I work for myself so may just give myself a payrise haha. I don't smoke much, 2 or 3 bowls a week, and smoke about 10 different blends so usually open 1 tin of each a year, so I'm starting to build up a decent stock now (20 tins currently) but now im earning better (only been self employed 18 months after being made redundant) so may well start buying more. There are so many US blends I'd love to try but we can't get over here :(
Another entertaining review - thanks Brian. I'd love to hear your thoughts on Nightcap if you ever have time. I know it's one of your favourites too - even a review from a jar would be fine by me. Though it's always good to watch you ripping a tin open!
Thanks my friend I certainly will , I did a bunch of Dunhill a couple years ago I’ll have to look . You can go under my Reviews category and look at them
@@beans316 Yes, that's the great thing about UA-cam - I've been able to find all those older reviews and I've enjoyed them all DNR and Elizabethan from memory. Last year I obtained a tin of Nightcap from 2015 and was surprised at how watered down it seemed in flavour and nicotine. Could have been a hiccup in their production for all I know and I guess second hand tins can be a bit hit and miss.
Morning Brian, looook aaaat it galore! I do not find any significant differences between dunhill navy rolls vs escudo, i am fine smoking any of them. The new minster for me is too harsh both the flake and the curly cut. I am not a big fan of the oval shape pipes for some reason probably the burn rate in the bowl is always uneven for me. Enjoy the weekend and stay safe out there.
Good morning my friend yes I agree not much difference except Escudo is cheaper haha . I’m not grabbing for this vest pipe much but I do like it for a short smoke. Hope your doing well take care
Boy our tastes are so on course with each other I’m smoking that Newminster now and it is a little harsh not terrible but just ehhhhhh . Picking up a lot of grahm cracker cereal notes
@@beans316 although i am happy were are brothers and taste buds twins as well but i am sorry you did not find it to your liking but storing it for few years took off some of that sharpness. As for the round slices it is similar to macbaren royal twist or stockton with that sharp kentucky edge to it, after all they are made by macbaren.
Brian have you done the Peterson De Luxe Navy Rolls yet? If not I’ll be on the lookout for it. I’m really curious to see the comparison between the two.
How does this compare to Elizabethan? I am fairly new to pipe smoking. I had a few bowls of Elizabethan and thought it was okay, but the last time I had it, it blew me away. Now it's my favorite.
@@beans316 I never had Escudo. When I first started pipe smoking, I bought Peterson's EMP which I love. I also had a few aromatics, which I thought were crap, so I threw them out. I was focused on English blends like Father Dempsey and Squadron leader, but I saw a good review of Elizabethan and thought I would try a VaPer. The first few times I didn't "get it", but the last time I had it I could taste all the flavors and I loved the sweet bread taste along with the periodic spice. Long story short, I looked for Escudo but it was all sold out. I just bought a tin of Peterson Navy Rolls based on your review.
i like the deluxe navy rolls but its too pricey for me. i really wish they would have continued making london blend and durbar. those were my favorites. yeah buddy! enjoy it. you dont know what tomorrow brings. never really did but it seems more apparent now. take care
Good morning my friend yes I agree very expensive for sure , I seen all the snow you still had geeeeesh I think spring is close haha stay safe out there
@@beans316 i just saw it 🙃 I wasn’t aware of the price over there. Estervals does have sales sometimes and I red that the sale a couple of days ago included capstan which sold for 6,50 euro.. you have to be logged in to see the offers, so I made an account there.
VaPers in my opinion are the best tobacco to smoke. My biggest pet peeve is hearing people bitch about how VaPers taste like cigarettes... it’s tobacco... no shit. If it taste like a cigarette then it is the worlds finest cigarette lol 😂
This one’s a little too highly priced for me. I can’t bring myself to spend $10 an ounce (I believe that’s what this works out to per tin) when there are so many good tinned blends out there for $5-$6 an ounce. Heck there are even some bulk flakes like Sutliff 507-c and Newminster 400 for $3 an ounce that are incredible. Maybe one day I’ll throw a tin of this in the cart but for now I’ll be a bit more parsimonious. Thanks for the review Brian.
I also like the navy rolls but I think they are overrated. In contrast, I think the Curly Block by Peter Heinrichs is a little better. Unfortunately, this is almost no longer available here in Germany.
Good morning Greg they were used back in the day for stage shows and outdoor guys loved them for hunting and fishing fits in there front pocket or vest
This is my favorite blend. You 100% do the best review videos on the Internet
Thanks my friend
lol the "look at it!" still gets me every time. love this tobacco, its just dang expensive. wish I had stocked up 5 years ago.
Haha I scare people a lot with that , yes it is really expensive so for me Escudo is more in my cellar
Dunhill/Peterson Elizabethan has been my everyday all day smoke for the past 8 years. Still buy it today ✌🏼❤️
Sounds like a smart guy to me haha thanks for watching
@@beans316 you’re very welcome brother! I have watched you ever since Matches shouted you out about 9-10 years ago. Keep up the great content ❤️
Good video. Peterson's blend is definitely just as good as before the brand change and the quality of those aged navy deluxe rolls looks excellent.
I’m a big fan of those navy rolls. Can’t imagine how good they are aged that much though. I also love Newminster 400 and 403. Great blends fresh and aged.
Thanks my friend for watching I think the Va is a little harsher than Sutliff Va flake but I still like it take care
@@beans316 really? I think Sutliff is a little harsher and has less flavor. To each their own :)
Good to see you cracking tins. Not only are you enjoying it but I learn a lot seeing some aged tins! I don't really care for an new vaper, but after acquiring an aged tin, it has mellowed out to the point I enjoy it. That has really shown me how aging tobacco can drastically change the blend.

Thanks my friend yes age does a lot for tobacco in general, there are some burley blends I don’t care for much but with age is really nice
@@beans316 Thats interesting. Ive heard many times burley doesnt "age" well but ive had good luck too. thanks for your reply :D
My favourite! Such a beautiful smoke.
Thanks my friend
Excellent vid Beans. Thanks a lot my friend. Have a great week-end.
Thanks my friend for stopping by
Luv my Vaper’s. Have a Great and blessed weekend Brian.
Thanks my friend you also , I love Vaper’s also my favorite for sure
Thanks for sharing ... Horacio gave me a couple of Navy Flakes sample from 2015... cant wait to try it... Happy smokes!
Awesome hope you like them they age really nice thanks for watching
I have a few Peterson navy roll tins sleeping not that long only a few years. That Dunhill is a beauty Brian definitely worth collecting especially for the history behind them, I could imagine how awesome that smoke is right now! Thanks for sharing bro..,enjoy
Thanks for watching my friend I really love the history behind Dunhill it’s pretty amazing
The Dunhill you have is called an opera shape. Small so you can have a smoke at the opera intermission, and an oval shape so it won’t bulge in your suit pocket- yes really 🤔
Love the DNRs it's that and Escudo are my two favorite VaPers.
I enjoy OGS and GLP six pence as well.
You are right up my alley haha we have the exact tastes I love all those as well
Nice little Dunhill Opera shape! They were designed to smoke at Intermission, and not put a bulge in your tuxedo pocket. Never smoked the Deluxe Navy Rolls, but have always enjoyed a tin of Escudo every decade or so. Always good to see you, my friend!
Thanks Tom it smokes pretty good have a great week
Thank you for sharing. I look forward to hearing your thoughts on the fresh tin vs. the aged. All the best.
Thanks Chip for watching Vapers really age well for sure, only if the price wasn’t so high
Very interesting
I enjoy your lines of thoughts.
Thanks my friend for watching, I try and be honest as possible
Awesome looking coins Brian. Ages great. Cheers, Janez
Thanks Janez it sure is great stuff and ages lovely congrats on your contest I wanted others to try and win take care
Those navy rolls look delicious. I’m not afraid to spend a little bit on good tobacco, I’ll probably be getting myself some of those. I’m enjoying your videos.
Thanks my friend it’s definitely pretty good stuff for sure if you really like perique you definitely have to try C&D exclusive
Brian thanks for sharing. Like you it’s been a bit since I have had the Dunhill. I need to pull some out and smoke it. Haven’t purchased any Peterson rolls. Blessings brother🍭🐓👶 Looking forward too the comparison. Escudo and Dunhill are in my top 5👍
Thanks Mel it’s pretty good stuff but a lot more pricey Escudo is much cheaper
Oh yeah, looks awesome. I could smell it from here. I grab Escudo when I can for the cellar often, but need to round up to free shipping with some Pete DNR. Oh, and hope your propane isn't insane priced. It's 6.32 per gallon and rising here on island.
Thanks for watching yeah the propane prices are ridiculous makes me want to smoke more tobacco haha stay safe
I can’t agree with you more brother it’s time to enjoy what we have. Thank you for the video.
Thanks Tony appreciate you watching life is definitely to short never count on tomorrow
Thanks for sharing Brian. Happy smokes
Thanks for stopping by my friend keep those pipes smoking

Bought is what I meant to say
Always a good smoke. Got a few 2017 tins left. Should probably restock soon.
Thanks for watching it’s always nice to have some stored in the cellar aging , Vapers age so well
Pipes and cigars has Peterson roll and flake $14.98 and flake $11.36 on sale
Thanks my friend that’s a good deal
Great “look at it”! I guess we got on you enough lol.. I agree life is short and Mason jars are still cheap 😎.. Great flake I cellar that one as well 👍
Lol yeah you were one of the guys getting on me for my mild look at it haha

Could be I believe there the same recipe just pricey on this one
Enjoy yourself Brian!😊👍🏻 sounds great
Thanks my friend it’s pretty good stuff except for the price tag haha
I just cracked a tin from 2 years ago, lovely! I only hope I can keep some long enough to have this sort of age on, but being over £20 a tin in the UK its pricey
Glad you like it sorry about the price seems like everything is going up but our income
@@beans316 yea, about $30, still nowhere near as bad as Australia, they're paying $100+ for a 50g tin. I work for myself so may just give myself a payrise haha.

There are so many US blends I'd love to try but we can't get over here :(
I'm not big on VaPers but I do enjoy this. Especially with some age on it. I don't get the cigarette-y notes when it's had some time to mature.
Thanks for watching it’s definitely my favorite profile in tobacco and ages very nicely but everyone’s tastes are different take care
My personal favorite can! I can't imagine how the age makes it taste
Thanks for watching it ages really nice but it’s definitely on the high price side for sure
The oval shaped pipes are often referred to as "opera" pipes, because they would slide into the vest pocket while the snobs were at the opera.
Yes you are correct also the outdoor fisherman loved this shape thanks for watching
I was fortunate to try an aged tin of this. probably my favourite out of the whole coin/round lot. The only one I want to try is Ropers roundels.
I do like most of them if you like a lot of perique have you tried exclusive from Cornell & Diehl ? It’s over half perique
@@beans316 I won't come back until I got some, I promise!!

Your definitely right about that my friend thanks for stopping by
This is one of my fave tobacco, i have around 15 tins of it 👍😁
Awesome yes it’s definitely a good one I really love how they age they taste amazing
BTW that pipe looked just my style so I looked and it was still available. It’s mine now 😊 Have a great weekend brother
Haha well thanks my friend really appreciate it I love Morta pipes there so old and very light and they never ghost
@@beans316 Excited to get it and it’ll be my first! Looks beautiful to my eye and I’m betting it’s a good Virginia smoker 🤞

Thats a good plan Brian,i re smoking the special tobacco once in a while ! Be safe.
Thanks Frank hope your doing well hopefully spring is around the corner it’s going to be cold here until next week stay safe out there
Good chat and video my friend! Are Dunhills as good as people say they are? Holy crap there expincive pipes!
Thanks my friend to be honest there no better than others that are drilled properly but I love the looks and the history behind them
Have you tried Comoy's Cask #7? I happened onto a 5 year old tin and it's fantastic.
Thanks for watching yes I have it’s really good as well I also really liked Davidoff Coins
I just got a can of this, Peterson of course. I’m going to let it age a couple years before I open it though. How would you compare it to Orlik?
I think there both really good haven’t had Orlik in awhile now it’s definitely more grassy hay notes
Brian have you done the Peterson De Luxe Navy Rolls yet? If not I’ll be on the lookout for it. I’m really curious to see the comparison between the two.
Yes I did compare the two other than the age difference there exactly the same blend. I’ll have to make a vid on them
@@beans316 Awesome, thanks for all your reviews too by the way. You are always Consistent
Good stuff, but a lil too pricey for everyday smoking hahaha! Enjoy your weekend!
Thanks for watching my friend yes it’s definitely on the high side Escudo is definitely cheaper

I have an extra tin tho I'll probably give it a shot!
Crack that bad boy and enjoy haha
