As I've been sampling different aromatic and English blends, I keep finding myself coming back to Squadron Leader.
I've heard that Dunhill's My Mixture 965 is very similar with the addition of Cavendish to give it some smoothness. Comparing the two, I get it. And from, what I understand, swapping the Cavendish for Perique gets you Nightcap. As a former cigarette smoker, I was quickly able to identify the Perique from having tried American Spirit Perique blends.
So... that all said... Squadron Leader seems to have a distinct, almost "pine" kind of flavor that I can't figure out. Is that Latikia coming forward? If not, how would you describe the flavor?
