Stokkebye vs MacBaren navy Flake?

[jchaplick]

Ok so my B&M sells Stokkebye navy fake and i have been smoking it often and thoroughly enjoy it. Many have told me however that Macbarens navy flake is much better.
I have an opportunity to buy a pound for pretty cheap. I enjoy many VAs, like orlik, Macbarens Club Blend, and 3 Nuns (just tried some brought back from europe, oh boy)
If anyone has tried both stokkebye and macbarens please give me your input

I've smoked both McB Navy Flake,and PS LNF (if that's the one you meant), they're both good, but comparing the two is like comparing apples to oranges to me. LNF is a VA/Per, and McB NF is Va/Burley/Cavendish. To me the taste isn't the same at all, That being said, I much prefer the LNF myself, but YMMV.

Yes, that is what i meant, MacBarens Navy Flake, and Peter Stokkebyes Luxury Navy Flake

That's what I thought. Try the McB NF, you might like it better like some of the others have told you.

I guess I have to be the odd man out here. I like both of them, but I prefer the MacBarens myself. Maybe just because that was the first navy flake I ever smoked, and got used to it. LOL

Is MCB navy flake similar to their club blend?
