Not a favorite of mine but you should be able to fine JJ Fox Bankers Mixture.
The only Cigar mixture I really like was the short lived Compton’s Cuban Style Mixture.
Even on JJ Fox's website it looks to be unavailable or discontinued

The only commercial cigar leaf blend I’ve tried that really liked was Billy Budd. The cigar is used with Latakia to strike a really interesting chord.

I do sometimes blend Paraguay ligero leaf with other air cured tobaccos. I like it for a change of pace

You put my number one as the Honorable Mention, oh well. Just glad my number 2 is the same as yours. The Bankers is pretty awesome.
No Offense meant😂
It’s a flavorful blend of choice tobacco in typical GLP fashion being spectacular! It just doesn’t have enough nic for me. Neither does Bankers but based on it’s smokability once dried out a little Bankers makes up for it.

I gave both GLP Robusto and Key Largo four stars. They are fantastic, but being a cigar smoker I still much prefer a cigar when I'm in a cigar kinda mood. What makes these so enjoyable is that the cigar is in the background, and the complexity from the Latakia and the toast and sweetness from the Virginia make them both great blends.
