Turkish Latakia v. Cyprian Latakia

Looks like C&D is 20% off on smokingpipes right now. I grabbed some Black Frigate and Epiphany to see if the turkish latakia makes them any different.

I recently smoked a few bowls of Seattle Pipe Club’s Wild Man, which is made with Cyprian Latakia, and found it underwhelming compared to the Turkish Latakia blends. (See the JimInks review of Wild Man, where he gave it only two stars.) I am going to continue comparing those two (Syrian v. Cyprian), as I tend to believe the quality difference is quite noticeable to my palate at least.

Man, if Jim gives a blend 2 stars I pass on it. His reviews have helped me make a lot of good decisions.
