The ingredients for
1&2 and
Smyrna are:
- Lemon Virginia flue-cured
- Red Virginia flue-cured
- an Oriental (Prilep is available, though I'm sure the Smyrna product uses Izmir)
- Cyprian Latakia
Proportions? My guess is that
Smyrna is about 20% Latakia. Of the remaining 80%, probably half is Oriental, while the Virginia is heavy on the red. For the
1&2, the Latakia seems a bit higher (maybe 30%), the lemon Virginia dominates the red, and it seems to use a blend of more than one Oriental variety (good news, if you have several different Orientals), with the quantity of Oriental (probably down to maybe 25%) taking a back seat to the quantity of Virginias. I've never attempted these blends, so you'll have to play with the proportions. But even the experiments will be enjoyable.
