Description
Up for auction is a sealed 50g square tin of Robert McConnell Latakia Flake, produced in 2014. This pressed English flake pairs rich Latakia with naturally sweet Virginias — and tins from this era are suspected to contain Syrian Latakia, which has become unobtainable since production ceased. That makes this tin a potential treasure for both collectors and connoisseurs.
Why it’s worth owning: This 2014 vintage Latakia Flake offers not only over a decade of age but also the possibility of true Syrian Latakia, making it a rare gem for collectors and smokers alike. Whether enjoyed now, cellared further, or displayed as part of a collection, this tin is an increasingly rare find.
