I believe all the components play an important role. As well as amount and, placement of the components. at times I'll use more then one type of binder. I won't limit any advertised designation to that position. I believe there are almost an endless amount of blend combinations to be had in any given set choice of leaves due to positioning, conditioning, placement priming and vitola.

If I had an answer I wouldn't have asked the question. ;)
