What a Night! First Jackknife Plug, Escudo and Full Virginia Flake

(This isn't a review, in my opinion, because, I am not qualified, frankly. These are just my impressions). On the weight of manyreviews here, I received my shipment including JKP, Escudo and FVF. All three are new to me and after a 10 year break ( Faves were English blends like Renaissance, Squadron Leader and something that stars with a P).
All smoked in brand newish cobs to remove a variable:

JKP - smells like My BBQ smoker, according to the bride. She was right. After a thin slice/rub out anda quick 10 minute dry out in my dehydrator I was treated to a robust, billowy and heady smoke. I nursed it, worried about the N hit. But it was nothing to worry about. Perhaps I have a tolerance for nicotine. A little buzzy when I got carried away or did not pay attention but not overwhelming and quite manageable. Notes of heavy leather and a roaring campfire came to mind. At first blush It seems a quite straightforward,honest, satisfying tobacco. This one deserves more consideration and more surprises are in store, I am certain. It smoked down to the stereotypical fine grey ash.
That was fun! I am a VA/PER newb but if last week's Luxury Bullseye was a compass then the Escudo would be simpler smoke I.e. less fiddly, needing less attention. A fold and stuff later and it was confirmed. I was treated to a smooth, cool yet complex experience . Puff it? No problem. No bite, just luxurious smoke. Sip it? Subtle but complex flavors started to emerge. Like the JKP, this one will be even better once I learn to wring the most from it. But unlike the JKP, this will be a fine choice for my commute. Not too many relights, no nic swoon, just an easy smoke. This might be sacrilege: though more complex it doesn't seem head and shoulders above the Bullseye. Of course this will require more "testing".
Full Virginia Flake... Where to start?.... Burning leaves, a little saltiness, then some sweetness sneaks in right in the middle. Then I caught a fleeting, not unpleasant,floral scent. Is that a hint of the Lakeland flavor I have read about? I wasn't quite prepared for a so-called straight Virginia, 3rd style of the night to have so much going on. Wow.
Here are three completely different blends yet each one got my attention in a different way, in a BIG way.
For an evening sitting on the couch it was quite a journey.

Thanks for all the advice! Interesting note about the red virginia biting you, cigrmaster, because I found the (admittedly fresh) FVF to be more 'bitey' than the JKP. That is probably because I was more cautious of the JKP due to the N. And I surely puffed too fast because FVF was a bit of a revelation.
To that point, great advice about about puffing too fast, shutterbugg. I definitely need to work on that. You all know the drill, pack too tight and/or tamp too hard and then it wants to go out in 2nd half of the bowl. But the good part is that practice is enjoyable.

Oh, and clickklick, you have me wondering if I have a high tolerance for nicotine? I have never smoked stogies or nails but I also have never gotten the 'spins' or niccups I hear about. I guess I will get some brown bogie rope (or whatever it is called). Just kidding.
