I have the luxury twist, which I absolutely love. The Cavendish pressed Virgina provides a nice sweetness without the unbearable residue of some aros. How do the flavor profiles of both LNF and BF compare to this? Specifically, how pronounced is the perique in the LNF (I'm not crazy about flakes that are perique-heavy)? And does the Cavendish center of the BF result in a flavor similar to the LT?
Thanks for your help!

If you like LTF, I think you'll love LBF. To my pallet, the Cavendish is much more pronounced. At this particular moment, LBF is my favorite smoke. As for LNF, the perique is rather subtle, maybe a bit stronger than in Escudo, if you've tried that (if you haven't, I'd highly recommend it).

+1 I'm smoking some LTF right now, and have the other two in my rotation as well. I don't think you'll find the Perique level in LNF to be over the top.All of these blends are good solid smokes.
