Prilep P66-9/7 is incredibly productive. Do make an attempt to sun-cure it. Even the suckers are prolific and cure well. It produces a reddish-gold leaf that is richly aromatic, but not particularly a floral aroma. I've used it in a number of English-style pipe blends. It's been described as "tobacco candy," and is really remarkable and unique.
It's also one of the few Oriental varieties that flue-cure perfectly.
When I decided to allow suckers to grow on the originally primed stalks, it went crazy with growth. I ultimately stalk-harvested the huge sucker growth, and just hung the entire stalks on the clothes line, where they sun-cured nicely, and with little attention (though it was generally cloudy for the few weeks that they were hanging). I then moved the stalks into the shed to finish up. After a month of kilning, they retained their lovely color and delicious aroma.
Prilep is relatively low in nicotine, and serves to add a yummy undertone to Latakia pipe blends.
I consider it a winner as a choice for Oriental tobacco. Plus, it is attractive in the garden.
