The Joys Of Not Being A Latakia Fan

Arango and Stokkebye Balkan Supreme are the same blend if you can't find one or the other. Some sites sell it in five pound bags.

That's good info, thanks!

Ever try PS Balkan Supreme? For comparison?

That's the one i bought twenty pounds of. Same blend as Arango, just through a different distributor, and less expensive when bought/5 pounds.

When I was smoking Latakias I found the Connoisseur Turkish Black very pleasant.

Latakia was something I always disliked, which saved me a lot of time and money when I was really into checking out new blends.

I smoked enough it to really appreciate its cool and creamy burning qualities, though. That flavor, when disliked, is really hard to overlook in any blend with more than a pinch of Latakia.

Islay whisky is also not my thing. I love smoked food, though. ?‍
