This is an odd bird to say the least. What McC is to VA's, Craig at C&D is to Latakia and in this case, Syrian Latakia. Now that the complements are out of the way, let me say that both of the aforementioned blenders need to make an appearance to make this blend better than good. Stated differently, I feel like this blend lacks a VA component that would really push it over the top (see McC here for the answer). A month or two with a few ounces of this blend and equal parts a tangy VA (think 25, 27, or even Blackwoods flake) mixed and allowed to marry -- now there's a blend with smooth Syrian and richness of VA all packed into one!

My bag of this tobacco has been waiting quietly at the back of my " cellar" for a year or so. As I smoked the other syrian blends and sort of left this one presuming it was more of the same.
But this one has a that little extra my guess is that it is the sweet red virginia, that makes this one special, to me the best english or balkan blends have the sweet and sour quailty. this blend produced the finest sweetness yet encountered on tobacco road. Time to start down a new avenue the Virginas.
