[QUOTE="MisterE, post: 547842, member: 820"] Good question! If you dig around a little online you can find a lot about Syrian vs. Cyprian Latakia. I dont know of Greg Pease's website is still up, but he went into depth about the whole Latakia trade, production and alternatives from a production point of view. At this point actual Syrian Lat is an impossibility but the same process with the curing woods and plants could very well be taking place in Lebanon. My semi educated guess would be to get some of the Lebanese stuff and give it a try. It's a lot like the Louisiana Perique production. There's not very much of the actual stuff available, but the Green River Perique is close enough to call Perique and accounts for most Perique tobacco used in blending now. Yes, the cigar shop guys will sometimes just give you an answer assuming you're the typical consumer, but there could be some truth in it. :lol!: [/QUOTE]
