Is this the sort of thing that's going to disappear after a limited time?
It already has, it was a limited edition, 2000 tins.Unless they decide to start producing it again that's all.

 

[pablohoney]

Ugh. That's a heartbreaker.

It's not worth a repeat run IMHO. Brass was kind enough to share a bit of his stash with me and I wanted so much to love the stuff but alas, no fireworks, no angels singing, not much of anything. I'll smoke Dunhill Nightcap when I'm looking for some Perique in an English blend and I know it'll deliver. There hasn't been much written on here after the initial outburst of excitement and everyone lusting over it, in fact it got downright quiet.

Surely you mean latakia setters?

Surely you mean latakia
This version of Squadron Leader had Perique added.

 

[ericusrex]

SLAP = Squadron Leader Adding Perique

 

[brass]

or SLAP equals "Squadron Leader And Perique"
I guess I'll have to try and tin of Dunhill Nightcap.

I love SL and its is one of my everyday smokes...I felt the SLP needs some aging after the initial trial.i will pop another tin of SLP for 2016 New Years and see what a little aging has done to it

Had my first taste of Squadron Leader last month, and was floored by how smooth this tobacco smoked. This is the first tobacco ever that I missed when the fire went out, as I only had the one sample to smoke. I could not wait to order more.

I tried both sl an slap didn't really care for ither one , they are ok but not enough kick for me. unfortunately I have 10 tins of each , oh well aging time.

I enjoyed Squadron Leader. I found it to be a good, medium flavored English blend. I have only purchased one tin, and that was a few months ago, but I would buy it again.

Virginia, Latakia, Izmir Turkish -- I just love that kind of simplicity. I am overrun with blends I haven't tried yet, but I may have to have a tin of it.

 

[bigpond]

Put 'em on the sale page, they both are quite popular.

 

[scrooge]

I can't post a sale or trade yet, don't have 4 months in yet.

SL is my hands-down ago rite blend. It's what I keep in my bug-out kit.
