Nice to know.. but do you have any leads on Prilep?

 

[FmGrowit]

I had about 6000 lbs. of Prilep and it was listed on the website for over two years. Now it's gone and it's highly unlikely that I'll ever find it again at an affordable price.

Samples of Katerini are supposed to be on the way. I'll post my opinions of it once it comes in.

I am a little naïve on Turkish tobacco so a question what was the prilep? What Is Izmur? I have yet to try the samples sent.

Thanks Bob I new it was like wine in France. In Canada its always been about Virginia tobaccos. I do know that where it is grown will determine the flavor.

That's called Terroir and applies to many crops ... especially my other favorite, coffee!

How does the flavor of this Izmir compare with your Prelip and Basma?
