[QUOTE="ontariopiper, post: 439851, member: 3775"] Stick - I'm working through my first tin of Squadron Leader at the moment as well :D I've smoked and enjoyed Nightcap previously, so I had an idea of what to expect from a "mild English blend". The first few bowls were disappointing. I found the flavour [i]very [/i]mild, and quite "airy" somehow - empty through the middle, if that makes any sense. The last time I fired up a bowl of SL, however, the flavour really opened up. I was smoking the same pipe as the earlier bowls, so it wasn't the pipe shape that did it. Perhaps the tobacco just needed to dry out a bit for me. Whatever it was, the "flavour gap" through the middle of my palate was gone, and I quite enjoyed the smoke. I'm looking forward to firing up another bowl. Hopefully I get a repeat of the last experience. [/QUOTE]
