Latakia Taste Test?

[woodsroad]

A while back, some kind soul here did a postal taste test with Latakia blends. The samples were in small Mylar ziploks, lettered A-F (I think). I stuck woth the program through “C”, then life got in the way. I just rediscovered the bag of samples, and really enjoyed one of them yesterday. May have been Penzance?

Can anyone find the link to that thread? Thank you!

I second that. I would like to see it too.

Ah yes, I remember sample "F."

Pretty delicious, although I remember not liking it quite as much as the others. I wonder how I might have ranked it differently if I saw the label first.

Looks like you found the original thread, but just to confirm, sample F was Smoker's Haven Krumble Kake (made by Germain). Not Penzance, but a close cousin.

Good stuff. Glad you enjoyed it. Sad that the SH blends are not in production anymore.
