Which of your Latakia blends is the "fullest?"

In order of decreasing "fullness," a difficult subjective description to nail down, I‘d rank them, Abingdon, Odyssey, Blackpoint, Charring Cross, Raven‘s Wing, Samarra, Renaissance, Kensington, Caravan, Ashbury and Piccadilly. Of course, this is NOT the order of decreasing Latakia. Abingdon does have the most, followed by Odyssey, Charing Cross and Raven‘s Wing, if you add the percentages of the Syrian and the Cyprian. Piccadilly has the least. It‘s not the percentage of any particular ingredient that matters, but the interplay between the intensities of the flavors and aromas. Caravan has the highest percentage of Oriental tobaccos, which make quite a bold statement. Odyssey, Abingdon and Charing Cross are monsters of Latakia goodness. They‘re huge, but still quite complex, and each presents a surprising level of subtlety underneath its powerful exterior.
