[QUOTE="gkhanna74, post: 99781, member: 354"] I have always wondered what flavorings are added to my favorites. I have found Gawith and JF Germain very forthcoming when I have called them to ask about what's "in" my favorite blends -- of course, the proportions are a secret. JF Germain said that a certain cyprian oriental (but I don't believe he was referring to latakia) was in short supply and was the reason for the delays in shipping Penzance and Margate. That particular tobacco is apparently used in both Penzance and Margate (my two favorite blends, which stinks for me), but in different proportions. He also said that Smokers Haven's "Krumble Kake" (which JF Germain blends) is very similar to Penzance in its recipe, so I am guessing that this cyprian oriental leaf issue impacts the availability of Krumble Kake as well. I plan to stock up on Penzance and Margate when they are available again -- there are few things as annoying as running out of my favorite tobaccos. With potential shortages, rising taxes, and fewer places to smoke these days, I am going to buy enough tobacco to last a lifetime! [/QUOTE]
