So here me out since you cant see me from all the smoke.

Latakia is a smoke,that was smoked by a smoker,for that smokey taste and smokey aroma, weither or not it's currently being smoked by a smoking smoker who probably smokes this smokey smoke because I am smoked!! 🤣
My question is how does smoking tobacco with smoke make the smoke that Latakia gives off smell even more smokey?

To me, there’s all sorts of smoke smells that all smell like smoke but all smell different from each other.
Tires burning smells way different than Hickory wood burning but they both smell like smoke.

As far as I know, the product called Latakia is just regular old tobacco that gets exposed to good smelling smoke for a long period of time. If the smoke it was exposed to smelled like shit, no one would want what the regular old tobacco would become after being exposed to gross smelling smoke.
Luckily, the smoke that the tobacco is exposed to doesn’t smell like shit, it smells more like a campfire which some people like in their pipe. So after long exposure to good smelling smoke, the normal tobacco starts to smell, and taste, like good smelling, and tasting, smoke.

Get me?

The process is the same for electronic components, long pickling in their kind of magic smoke which they absorb and makes them work. In the same way that electronics release their magic smoke when they've been a component to long, the critical temperature in the pipe bowl releases all that magic smoke from Latakia.

Hope this helps.

What exactly are you smoking? For some reason, I don't think it's latakia. 🤔

always wondered what would happen, if you could smoke a fully cured perique leaf over the same process..

It's covered in soot from a wood fire. A real disservice considering how amazing the Orientals were prior to being processed into Latakia.
