Dunhill

Dunhill cigarettes have long been associated with old money, style and tradition but the story of the brand is one from rags to riches. Alfred Dunhill was a caretaker in a London church whose job was to sweep the floor. One day, when walking down Bond-Street, he could not find a single tobacco shop. This is when he decided to open his first shop. Three years later, he was the richest tobacconist in England and one of the first in the business to machine-roll cigarettes.

Dunhill no longer belongs to the same family and is owned by the British American Tobacco company, but Dunhill Menthol, Dunhill International and Dunhill Fine Cut still project a sense of tradition and luxury.
