I realy enjoy latakia and their are many excellent blends out their that give credit to her legacy..including but not limited to GL Pease, Sam Gawith and others.This blend from Sturks resembles a poor drug store blend (a home-brew if you like) so if you're half way between the Kalahari and hell...here you go.

This blend comes to us from the same establishment that blends Sturks Balkan.
I would think that this is their English blend and Latakia lovers should really try this.
I reach for this when really craving Latakia and boy does it satisfy, you can taste the Virginias and a bit of Burly ( Maybe )
This blend is very rich and rewarding and clouds of rich cool smoke surround me when i smoke this.
Great Stuff Indeed
