[QUOTE="HCraven, post: 304518, member: 2843"] I've smoked some Magnum Blend, and I've aged other English/Balkan blends, but I've never smoked aged Magnum Blend. What I've noticed with most Balkans is that over time, the Latakia will mellow, while the Virginia grows richer, and I think the Orientals are more noticable. I will say that I think Boswell's English blends rely more heavily on flavored Cavendish for their taste than they do the VA/Lat/Oriental components (I'm not sure there are Orientals in them, to be honest). Magnum strikes me as more natural tasting than Northwoods did, but there is certainly an aromatic element that helps define the flavor, and those are notoriously volatile and not known to age with any particular grace, if they survive the process at all. FWIW [/QUOTE]
