Sutliff Tobacco Company TS19 Turkish

TS-19 Turkish is the Oriental tobacco product in Sutliff's blending-component line. According to the maker's description, it is prepared ribbon cut from Smyrna-grade leaves, with a dark casing applied that sweetens and darkens the tobacco. Sources indicate it is one of the main Oriental options accessible to small-scale blenders. The taste runs along a line of dry hay, spice, and tangy smoke; nicotine stays low while taste intensity is high. It is generally used to add a spicy, dry layer to mixtures containing Virginia and latakia.
