SLF is less Lat-ridden than Pz and Krumble Kake. For that matter, all of the other putative Latbomb flakes/chunks/cakes mentioned above plus Low Country's Cooper, Lancer's Slices, Bengal Slices, Old Ironsides, Holly's Discovery, the magnificent Pease Gaslight, Sextant, and Quiet Nights; Plum Pudding, the munificent Hermits (pretty much all of them, except for Honor Blend, which isn't a Lat, and maybe the new Reflections, which is uncharacteristically Lat-light); Serad's Serenity (the original, not the II which is not a crumble cake any more), Two Friend's Deacon's Downfall, (even) Ten to Midnight, Pirate Kake (burley rather than VA), and Bow Legged Bear (has both burley and VA) are more potent in the Lat department than SLF. I find SLF far pickier than the rest relative to specific pipes. I had one transcendent bowl, but most of the time my experience has been just good to very good. The other blends tend to overwhelm the individual traits of my various pipes and deliver very good to transcendent, in-the-zone bowls. I've been thinking of demoting SLF off my Top200 Cellar list, since all the other blends mentioned here are comfortably hogging the spots in the rankings.
