I recently aquired a tin of Dunhill DunbarEsoterica Dunbar - Dunhill Durbar.

I would vote that 10-years is plenty of time in a tin for something to go right with these guys (if anything gets grossly righter with these selections - don't know myself) - and another day is just an opportunity for something to go wrong. Yesterday is gone and tomorrow never comes.

Life is for the living! Smoke that stuff!

i've personally sampled some 40 yr old Dunhill Virginia that has been great and i've had some older blends with latakia and orientals in them that i could not tell were in there due to how much the flavor changed.
i believe the blends you're talking about have latakia in them, or orientals, or both. those make greater changes over a longer period of time, where a VA based blend makes bigger improvements over a shorter period of time. if you wanted to wait another 30 years, then go for it, but i'd smoke it now.
