Latakia

So is Penzance Latakia? I know I am still a little ignorant to the pipe scene.

nope, but it has latakia. lat is a "condiment" tobacco, used to add flavor and interest to a blend without using flavored casings or toppings. it is frequently in "english" blends, and almost always in "balkan" blends. it adds a whole bunch of pungent smokey flavors and rich creamy textures to a blend, but you would have to be a special kind of crazy to smoke it "neat". see above. o)

So.....this is what happens when you ask Russ622 for "a small sample of Latakia". Awesome package, bro. Thank you!

 

[Russ622]

Well, after I put the bag of Latakia in the box,I had to put something in there to keep it from bouncing around and I was out of bubble wrap, news paper, cotton balls, or toilet paper.


Hope you enjoy!

I just bought a pipe off him too. Hesitant to open that package when it lands! He did tell me that he & the Mrs. like coffee though, so we'll see what I can do about that.

Lmao!! I am loving this thread. It's amazing how many of us pipe smokers are out there now. It usually subsides seasonally but we are growing strong!

I knew I was hesitant for a reason! Thanks for the great extras, Russ!

I have to say that I am and have been for a while a Latakia fan. There is just something about that amazing smokey aroma and the unique taste. I am currently slowly expanding out and trying what ever pipe baccy I have came across. But Latakia is at the top of my list.

 

[BigBehr]

Im definitely a big latakia fan. Top of my list in no particular order. Boswells northwoods, Penzance, Priate Kake, Billy Budd, and SPC PLUm pudding.
