Azhad's Elixirs

His Majesty the Tuscan! Cured slowly over an open flame, a tobacco with a strong and smoky taste is obtained, very full-bodied and suitable for smoking alone or mixed with both aromatic and English blends.

High quality Cypriot Latakia, this smoked tobacco is included in most British and Balkan mixes. Latakia is a smoke and leather aroma. It is mixed with a large amount of tobaccos, from sweet ones like Cavendish and Virginia, to drier mixes with burley. The latakia aroma is mainly used to give a more or less marked shade of "smoke" to the blend.

Virginia African cured with hot air, it leaves the natural sweetness of the leaf without altering its taste, excellent in English or Balkane blends, or in cigarette mixtures, either alone or together with burley or turkish.

Burley is a widely used tobacco in blends, it is often found mixed with Virginia, but unlike Virginia, Burley has low residual sugars and has a pleasant nutty note as well as absorbing other added aromas very well. Originally this tobacco was derived from Cuban tobacco plants, but over the centuries they have become very different.

Perique is a rare American tobacco, exclusively produced in a few acres of Louisiana, allowing the tobacco to ferment under pressure in hollowed out tree trunks, to facilitate the maturation of its full flavor. The result is a very strong tobacco with a spicy flavor.

From the unripe fruit to the warm embrace of cavendish, tenderly steamed, the creamy taste of this blend will make you dream of being on the sunny coast of Banana Bay, in the Bahamas, vaping cradled in a hammock among the banana trees.

A mix of virginia gold and reds, with seven other different types of tobacco to bind and make this aroma a delicate tobacco for contemplation, to be vaped in the armchair at the end of the day trying to separate the various aromas that change and transform with each puff.

A mix of American golden Virginia and sun dried Mexican vanilla.

A blend of Cypriot, Macedonian and Balkan tobaccos, the "electric bass" of tobaccos, you don't notice when it's there, but its lack is immediately noticeable. Indispensable in English or Balkane blends, but can be used anywhere.

The Tuscan kentucky and the bitter gentian root marry in this dry and decisive aroma, which is savored first in the mouth and then on exhalation. The addition of a pinch of Lebanese latakia gives a smoky and spicy vapor that takes us back to ancient and forgotten Lebanese-romantic practices.

Sicilian bitter orange and Izmir tobacco are the only ingredients of this mixture, in which balance is the fundamental part: every nuance, every flavor, every little note perfectly reproduced. A simple aroma on paper, but one that surprises in its complexity

The pure cocoa extract, full in its bitter aroma, is covered with a thin veil of Tuscan virginia and the sweet cavendish of the same tobacco.A perfect balance that confuses and makes the aromatic scale fall, with every puff, from bitter to sweet, from cocoa to cavendish, but always tobacco, and always cocoa on exhalation.

In a mixture where the cavendish slowly mixes with the licorice, creating the caramel that was missing in their encounter, soft French vanilla is added. And while the tobacco keeps popping up everywhere, the rest blends into an unmistakable blend. A flavored in which tobacco remains the main ingredient, but with respectable side dishes.

Full-bodied latakia, dry burley and dried and roasted nori seaweed, to bring you all the flavor of two years of maturation in a freshly blended aroma. A dry and slightly smoky tobacco, with so much umami in the body to transcend the burley and make it full as you have never tasted it. A tobacco that breaks the lines between flavored and non-flavored, and escapes the banal categories: it is UMAMI.

After more than twenty years of blends, tests and trials, from the choice of individual leaves to the blending and aging method, to then move on to extraction, filtration, distillation, all done to recreate a blend that no longer exists. This Balkan Sobranie, is my version of 759, from the smell of the box to the flavor in the vape: every note, every spice, every leaf maniacally found, cataloged and tuned to the right concentration. It should not be described: it should be tried.

Almost forgotten flavors open in an amarcord of emotion and steam, in this Tuscan Virginia cooked in Cavendish combined with a savory and smoky Kentuky.

The very slow maturation of this liquid during the long decanting brings to the surface, as in a bewitched cauldron, the smell and taste of an oriental spice souk. As never before, the two years of processing blend these Turkish and oriental tobaccos in a blend with ancient scents.
