The blend
Burley, Cavendish, Latakia, Oriental, Virginia make up the leaf. Burley is an air-cured leaf with a dry, nutty, cocoa-like quality and low sugar. Cavendish processing softens the leaf into a sweet, easy-smoking base. Latakia, a fire-cured Oriental leaf, brings the smoky, incense-like campfire character that defines English and Balkan blends. Oriental (Turkish) leaf contributes dry, sour-sweet spice and a herbal, aromatic edge. Virginia tobacco lends a natural grassy, hay-like sweetness and gentle citrus tang that deepens with age.
