[QUOTE="DrumsAndBeer, post: 400702, member: 2403"] Although I am not smoking much latakia anymore, I found Meridian to be the most compelling latakia mixture in Greg's catalog. A very fine use of Oriental tobacco, IMHO. As far as Embarcadero is concerned, I agree that it takes some time to find a groove with it. Based on half a tin, I found it to be average to decent at best. It revealed different subtleties from pipe to pipe. I ran it through at least 5-6 pipes before settling on one of my briars, as mentioned a dublin with a conical bowl and a wide open draw. Given how many VaPer and VaBur's there are on the market, there are not a whole lot of VaTurk's. C&D's Izmir has a lot of character and contrasts well with the Red VA used. [/QUOTE]
