Gents, would you be so kind as to suggest an alternative blend that is similar to Samsun.

Nothing. Each of those was put on a different VA base Mike came up with to highlight the different varietals. More importantly, I am not aware of anyone focusing, or identifying, individual Oriental varietals. Best you might can do is take someones VA ribbon and mix with some blending Orientals, you may can get Smyrna or Macedonian, but most likely just generic Turkish.

Thanks for that gents. I appreciate it. I'll have a crack at the PS No. 84, and see how it turns out.

I've just managed to secure an order of McConnell's Original Oriental and two ounces of Izmir & Samsun. Time will tell how good it will go. It occurred to me the the I & S, might go well blended with some Va. #1, or Va. Slices.
