Latakia Tobacco Seeds – Traditional Oriental Pipe Tobacco
General Description
Latakia is a unique Oriental tobacco variety, famous for its rich, smoky aroma and deep flavor. Originally grown in Latakia, Syria, this tobacco gets its name from the port city of Latakia. Today, most production has shifted to Cyprus, where it is still cured using traditional methods. Latakia is primarily used as a condimental tobacco in pipe blends, giving them a bold and distinctive smoky profile.
