Latakia Tobacco: A Rich Tapestry of Flavor

Flavor Profile: Smoky & Peppery

Latakia Tobacco, known as ‘Quartet’ in the Black Note collection, is celebrated for its rich, intense, smoky, and peppery flavor. This unique delight for the senses is achieved through the traditional Syrian Latakia process. It begins with sun-curing the tobacco, followed by a meticulous smoke-curing over controlled fires of fragrant wood and indigenous aromatic herbs. This process imbues the leaves with a robust and distinctive character, setting Latakia apart in the world of tobacco.

Historical Roots: The Birth of Latakia

The creation of Latakia tobacco is a tale woven into the fabric of the Ottoman Empire’s history in Northern Syria. Farmers, overwhelmed with surplus Oriental tobacco, stored their excess crop at home, planning to sell it the following year. During the winter, they warmed their homes with fires fueled by aromatic wood, inadvertently infusing the stored tobacco with a rich, smoky essence. This tobacco, named after the Latakia region in Syria, quickly gained popularity for its unique flavor and aroma, leading to the intentional smoke-curing of tobacco that we know today.

The Art of Aging Latakia Tobacco

The Journey to Perfection: Why Aging Matters

Latakia tobacco undergoes a lengthy aging process, often spanning an average of five years, to reach its peak flavor. This period of maturation allows the tobacco to develop a more complex and nuanced profile, much like fine wine. The wait is a testament to the dedication to quality, ensuring that each batch of Latakia offers a rich, peppery taste that is both unique and memorable.

The Double-Curing Method: Crafting the Flavor

The hallmark of Latakia tobacco is its double-curing process. It starts with sun-curing in sealed barns to reduce moisture, followed by smoke-curing over fires fueled by a blend of aromatic herbs and wood. This method not only preserves the tobacco but also enhances its flavor, creating a smoky and peppery profile that is unmistakably Latakia.

Origins of Double-Curing: A Happy Accident

The double-curing method has its roots in an accidental discovery by Northern Syrian tobacco farmers during the Ottoman Empire. With excess tobacco stored at home over winter, the leaves absorbed the smoky aromas from the open fires used for cooking and heating. This serendipitous process resulted in a tobacco with a rich, heavy taste and smoky aroma that was an instant hit in the markets. This success led to the intentional replication of the process, giving birth to the Latakia tobacco we cherish today.

    AWESOME

    From a 40 year smoker, FANTASTIC….

  2. Jonathan (verified owner)

    Smok’n!

    Very smokey flavor. This makes me think of a campfire. The smokey flavor of this is so authentic and spot on that I kept thinking I was burning my coil. Haha! I will admit, before my palate acclimated to this flavor, my first impression of this was that it was like sucking air from a used tire. The flavor is by far the strongest I’ve tried from BlackNote. But after a few days with Quartet I find that I really like it and can’t get enough. From my personal experience with my current tank/mod setup I find that if I exhale into the tank for a split second before inhaling I get more of the desirable flavors. Also exhaling slowly out the nose allows me to smell/taste all the subtle overtone and undertone nuances of this amazing juice. Another interesting side note: A few people at my work vape while there are more people who still smoke. Since my work place requires all of use to exercise our habits in the designated areas I’m often hanging with the other vapers and smokers outside. Since I first started vaping Quartet I’ve had vapers and smoker alike asking to try it. Apparently the aroma of this is quite alluring. I’ve never had anyone ask to try it with any of the other flavors I’ve vaped. The only con to BlackNote is that now I have a bunch of other brands of tobacco ejuices that will probably never get used. :p

    A Beautiful Addition

    *Tips hat* Quartet is unique in a sense that even after going through a Notebook, it still has a very defined, and very specific taste. I love it. It is very smokey, and I find the description for the procurement method entirely accurate in the flavor profile. I love being able to bounce back and forth between the sweetness of Prelude, to now the boldness and smokiness of Quartet. It’s a range within the tobacco types that I can appreciate. Wonderful flavor and I am looking forward to many more.

    Love it

    I found Quartet to have a very beautiful smokey taste and it is very nice vaping experience. Love it

    Sonata

    Great taste , my second favorite ejuice from blacknote behind cadenza

  6. Alex N

    Great Flavor

    Seems to me like a perfect match for those who smoked pipe tobacco and miss it. Mildly spicy and rich flavor. Very distinct Juniper and milder pine might be too strong for some, but amazing flavor. At times when something milder is desired mixing it with Prelude or Adagio might be a perfect balance depending on the mood or time of day. Overall I think is a must to try for those who like the real tobacco flavor without a mess of a pipe.

    Great products!

    Great products! All of the flavors taste and smoke really well. Highly recommend, doesn’t taste like alcohol or perfume, very nice!

  10. Anthony

    Quartet

    I received a sample bottle from a friend. This is alright but not my favorite in the line. A little strong and a bit too smoky for my tastes. I’m sure others will find it perfect for them.

  11. Lygushkia (verified owner)

    Jaw dropping flavor

    Oh…my…Lord!! I believe I found my new favorite! It has a powerful taste and bold flavors, I can taste the woody, Herby, undertones and love the peppery smokey overtones!! I really hope they make this blend part of their regular stock because this juice is fantastic!!

  12. Jerzy (verified owner)

    Superior quality

    Mixing 50% Quartet with 50% Bravura created a perfect blend for me.

  13. Todd (verified owner)

    Unique and Pleasant

    In my opinion this is one of the most unique flavors that Black Note offers. It is very reminiscent of my pipe and cigar smoking days. A little bolder than some of the other blends.

  14. David (verified owner)

    English as Tea.

    My favorite pipe tobacco condiment was always Syrian Latakia. My favorite expression of it was McClelland’s Three Oak Syrian. I liked the smoky bread quality it has with out the salmiak after taste a lot of Greek latakias have. I also really liked Westminster by G.L. Pease (which uses a Greek Latakia, but with out the usual black liquorish taste) Quartet is as close as you can get to Three Oak Syrian or perhaps closer to Westminster; without the combustion. Definitely an excellent, if not only, choice for fans of English style pipe tobacco. It is interesting to experience Latakia in this way. It is something entirely new and nostalgic at the same time. Very unique experience.

    From an Ex smoker – Amazing!!!

    What an amazing e-liquid. I have been looking for genuine tobacco e-liquid for quite awhile when I discovered Black Note and all their amazing tobacco flavors. Then I tried Quartet and I knew I finally found exactly what I was looking for. I was amazed at the amazing tobacco flavor and the smoothness with total satisfaction. Congratulations Black Note on a job well done. Definitely a 5 star product…

    Another Amazing Blend

    Initially I tried to get this in 12mg and was disappointed it was only available in 6mg. This all changed when it arrived though. The throat hit is on point with what is expect from 12mg.
    On the inhale I get a mildly sweet taste with earth tones and a pleasant aroma. When I exhale the more robust and dry tones come out. Similar to a mild cigar.
    Like most of the flavors I have tried, I find this e liquid to be a refreshing change from the overly sweet style e liquid that floods the market. Black Note is to e liquids like fine scotch is to a sweet liquor. I find it to be complex and often cleanses my palate after vaping other non tobacco flavors. I will definitely be keeping this for special occasions.

  17. Doug (verified owner)

    Just like the old pipe tobacco

    My buddy let me try a tank of this and I will be getting some soon. As a former pipe smoker, I missed the rotating in the bolder latakia blend tobaccos. This is reminiscent to Nightcap with a bit more smokiness. Not everyone is a fan of this type of tobacco but I do enjoy it in between the legato.

  18. Dog

    An Acquired Taste

    At first I couldn’t get over the slightly musky aftertaste but after awhile, over the course a few days, it began to grow on me and now I find the vape to be fairly enjoyable.

    It’s not the best nor is it the worst, at the most I would say it’s unique!

    Graet!

    Very Good Liquid, One of the best.
