Origin

The country it's named for? Syrie is Dutch for Syria.

Look

Medium-dark brown. Slightly mottled in appearance which can be a worry. Medium soft, this sample semi-powders into a velvety feel when warmed and broken up.

Smell

Not so spicy as an afghan, but still a bit flowery. Lighter than polm; not so perfumed. VERY smooth.

Taste

All good, considering the look. Soft on the throat but still a bit o' tingle. Ya, this is Syrian tent stylee; sit back with a bottle of Turkish wine (is there Syrian wine, or is that a no-no?) and take in the DRY summer nights.

Effects

High is up! Not a feeling of calm one normally finds with darker heavy polms. I was a bouncin' BushDoc on this gear.

Overall

A nice alternative to a polm as far as a high and taste. Similar but more like a Lebanon in many ways. I DID enjoy this with a Turkish wine in the summer; the setting was a slightly rainy Vondel Park however!
