Elizabethan Mixture was originally an old Murray, Sons and Co. pipe tobacco blend, which Dunhill had recreated by the master blenders at Orlik. Like the original, Dunhill's Elizabethan combined pressed, darkened Virginia tobaccos with a dose of Perique to create an easy-to-enjoy blend with a tangy character and a bit of peppery spice. Thanks to Peterson, the Dunhill blend is still available, much to the joy of Virginia/Perique lovers.
