Can you notice the difference between it and that from Cyprus?......
Two blends to compare would be SG's Commonwealth and McClellands 3 Oaks Syrian. Commonwealth is 50% steamed Cyprian so you'll get a good idea of the flavor, but even if you don't care for it do yourself a favor and get the 3 Oaks. Jesus H. Christ it's amazing. I love it....think I'll order some right now and stock up haha
