I agree with Clayton - I want multiple flavors that are balanced, where the flavors complement or otherwise benefit each other.

For example, almonds, toffee, and vanilla can create a great balance (ie Fuente Magnum) where seaweed and pepper do not work well with mocha and cream (ie RP Edge Maduro).
