Evening,
I was curious what forum members think about the disappearing supply of Syrian Latakia leaf and whether this will encourage some to stock up and add their favorite Syrian Latakia blends to the cellar before they are gone for good. I read a comment earlier today about how crops of this leaf have been unavailable since 1998 and that one of the larger blending houses will run out of its remaining stock by the end of the decade.
If you love latakia and plan on stockpiling some favorites before its too late, which blends are you going to stock up on?
How do Syrian blends age? Does the latakia fade excessively?
