Planta Empire - Latakia
(3.00)
Plenty of Syrian Latakia and high-quality Virginias are matured along with a little Oriental leaf. Delightful zesty, smoky and strong.
Reichlich Syrischer Latakia und beste Virginia-Grades werden mit etwas Orient-Tabak abgeschmeckt und in Ruhe gereift. Wundbar würzig-rauchig, kräftig.

Presented in the same fashion as Empire Perique Flake, two rows of slightly thicker than average cut flakes laid side by side in the tin. Not too moist either. Pungent Latakia dominates the tin scent. Plenty of (Syrian?) Latakia supported by Virginia and Oriental gives this flake a well-integrated, slightly sweet taste, quite mellow actually but less bland than MB Latakia Flake. I detect the slightest hint of soapiness in the taste and it works well here. Very easy on the tongue, Lovely smoke!
