Smokers' Haven Exotique Mixture-What's similar?

[choch]

Being a big fan of Oriental & Latakia blends, I've been wanting to try Exotique Mixture ever since Kevin Godbee posted his excellent review of the blend. Problem is that it's been out of stock for some time and Smokers' Haven doesn't have any estimate of when it might be available again. Can anyone that's smoked Exotique recommend some blends that are similar?
Cheers,
Craig

I have no idea if THIS POST is accurate, but I'd be interested to hear if anyone can vouch for it...

Margate in the Esoterica line would be similar but it has a higher latakia content than oriental though. Same type of cut.

If you get lucky enough to get your hands on some Exotique, here's an addendum to my review -
Make sure you let it dry for a couple of hours if it's a newly opened tin, and be careful how you pack it. The fine ribbon cut presents some challenges where it is easy to pack it too tight. You may want to cut it up, or break it up a bit.
