W.O.Larsen Selected Blend No.30 will probably be about as close as you can realistically get to Royal Yacht
https://www.thebackyshop.co.uk/index...roducts_id=615

Not sure who carries it in the states though and if it has to be shipped from the U.K. you might as well order the real thing from Germany

Fixed

Actually Have you tried the more recent Royal Yacht orlik version? I didnt care for the Murray's version at all but the newer version reminds me more of 3 year matured Virginia. Way different recipe now. Some Purists hated the change but actually I think this is one Dunhill blend that Orlik improved.

I don't have a huge stash of Royal Yacht myself (as well as other Dunhill blends that have long gone.) One thought would be for enough of us who are interested in ordering, split the shipping costs from Germany. Perhaps this has been done on this website before but I would certainly pitch in if there are others who wish to make an order. I did speak with the German fellow at http://www.pipe-shop.net, and he has all the Dunhill brands in stock as Orlik still makes them and distributes them there. Also I see on the other thread that we may soon get a distributor in the US this summer. I don't know how low you are on RY but if you can make it for a while we should see how that pans out first and if it doesn't happen lets bump this tread and start talking about a group order.

Re: royal yacht?

nice cellar, nate.

i was never a fan of royal yacht, but can't argue against someone stockpiling their favorites.

Seeing as it's your favorite, wouldn't you want to keep just more than those few tins around? I'd start stocking up if I were you!

Re: royal yacht?

Nate,

That is a very nice cellar!!!

I happen to notice a tin or two, maybe even more of Aperitif. If that's Murray's Era, I'd love to pick up a couple form you, even one. I have Murray's Era tins of Royal Yacht, 965, EMP, and Standard Mixture Med, that I can offer for a tin per tin trade.

Let me know.

Re: royal yacht?

I think I still have your address, Nate. Now... what's your work schedule or any other time you're typically away from home?

Does it live in a field and come in a patty?

Royal Yacht... love it or hate it. I'm actually pretty ambivalent about it. I don't buy it but I'll smoke a bowl if it's offered.

Re: royal yacht?

I wish I'd grabbed a tin or two back when I was looking down my nose at Dunhill tobaccos
