Witch Bisquettes are better?

[Duster]

Ok everybody, I know that this could be a very opinionated question but I am interasted in purchesing my first 120 box of flavor bisquettes and am having a hard time making up my mind. I do mostly pork and chicken in my OBS but will do a good cut of beef when the opportunity presents it's self. I like the robustness of  hickory and the sweetness of cherry. I also love the aroma of alder in the smoker but am a little disapointed with it's mildness. I want something with a good prominent smoke flavor, a little sweet,  but yet not harsh. I have not tryed maple yet, I have some but am saving them for some Canadian bacon so that may be what i'm loking for, I'm  not sure. So can any of you masters of flavor on here give me any  suggestions?

Alder is nice and right in the middle . ;)

If I could only have one flavor, I would opt for Apple.  I prefer Oak and Maple for many things, but Apple can be used on virtually anything IMHO.

I really like most of the woods, but i have to say oak is my allrounder, i'm really into pecan atm  ;)

Good general guideline, but it really boils down to how long you smoke and personal taste.

Oak is my go to. But that is me and others will be different.  I would not say that oak is a heavy smoke (as the link suggests).  I put it pretty middle of the Bradley pack behind hickory and mesquite.  Maple is pretty flexible as well giving a lighter sweeter flavor but not so light as apple / pecan.

Everybody is wired a little different.

I have to agree with WCK. If you are occasionally going to smoke beef, oak is a good choice to go with.

For choice of wood, I have to give the recipe site a plug:

If your not in a big hurry to buy the box of 120, Amazon is still offering their buy 4 for the price of 3 and with free shipping it only comes to $47.67. This way you can try different flavors.
