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.
