After several weeks of looking, this is the conversation about purchasing some Yenidje.
"Don,
This is what I got from my oriental supplier. They are very good and you see what they say below.
According the Tobacco Encyclopedia, Yenidje was from Greece and disappeared years ago and is now replaced with a Basma type.
Best I can do.
------------------------------------------------------
I am not sure, Yenidje is correctly pronuanced. I have never heard about it. If it is from Turkey, many varieties have been disappeared. Existing ones are :
· Izmir,
· Samsun,
· Sark,
· Yayladag
Beside above, some of the Turkish suppliers are growing Basma and Katerini in Turkey.
I guess, this is from Bursa region, which was closed down for tobacco growing, 7-8 years ago.
Kindly let me know how we can replace this with another origin.

Do you think this is accurate information or is there something being lost in the translation?
What do you think would be an equivalent replacement for Yenidje.
