🌿 Composition & Cut
Tobaccos:
Cyprian Latakia – dominant, providing intense smokiness and depth.
Orientals/Turkish – add spice and incense-like aroma.
Virginias – contribute natural sweetness and balance.
Cut: Plug format—a solid block of pressed leaf. Requires slicing or rubbing out before smoking, allowing customization of preparation and burn rate.

🔥 Smoking Experience
Burn Quality: Cool and slow when sliced thin and packed properly.
Moisture: Usually ready to smoke; a short dry time after slicing can improve performance.
Technique: Slice to desired thickness—thin for quicker burn, thicker for a longer, richer smoke.
🌟 Aging Potential
Ages exceptionally well—cellaring enhances sweetness and smooths the Latakia/Oriental interplay. Many enthusiasts recommend 3–10 years for peak flavor.
