Great review of a great smoke!

This, Escudo, PS LBF, SG St James Flake, Solani 633 and Reiner LGF are all in my rotation, and I hope to never lose any.

Do you prefer the PS LBF over the PS LNF? I have found I enjoy the LNF more as there is no burley (as it is, in part, what is used to make the black Cavendish) and a bit more Perique. Of course, that is just a personal opinion. And, I haven't smoked but two bowls of the LBF - I wasn't too enamored with it. Depending on your response, I may have to revisit.

I do. I think I'm just a sucker for a bit of burley with some Virginias (Reiner LGF and Solani silver flake come immediately to mind). I originally liked LNF just as well until I did a happy experiment. Instead of fully rubbing out, I leave the cavendish centers intact and make a parfait out of it. If you'd like to try it again, PM me your addy. I have a fair amount with a few years age on it.

No thank you. As I said, I have had it. Yes, only a couple bowls, but it was just a few months ago. I am satisfied I know it well enough to say that I've had enough.
