Squadron Leader would be a great choice as well.

PS. Don't smoke latakia blends in your Virginia pipe(s). Latakia ghosts (leaves behind it's residue so that you can taste Latakia for many smokes afterwards) like there's no tomorrow. Get a separate pipe (a cob would be fine until you know how you feel) for latakia blends.

SL is heavy in orientals. This isn't a bad thing, but a new smoker often has trouble distinguishing orientals from latakia (at least I did). That said, it's one awesome baccy!
