[QUOTE="bentbulldog, post: 67961, member: 763"] I stumbled upon the last and very old looking tin of Midnight Ride at my shop and knowing that it's discont. Bought it. I am having trouble sorting it though as I am reading mixed reviews. I have a pretty strict sorting method. Here are two of the four I use. English/Balkan is one Category and Oriental/Turkish is another where the first is either a balance of Va,Lat,Orientals or where the Latakia takes center stage (Old Ironsides). The other is where there is little to No latakia and the Orientals/Turkish leaf dominates (Orcilla Mixture; Presbyterian; Oriental no.40) For me, Latakia is smoke cured leaf. Period. and not to be confused with Turkish/Oriental which has it's own distinctive aroma and flavor. I haven't tried MR and intend to cellar it but I hear some reviews say it has TONS of latakia while others say that The Orientals dominate. I would imagine CAO would differential Latakia and Orientals in their blends having made Old Ironsides as the latakia lovers dream. Can anyone help me sort this blend appropriately? [/QUOTE]
