i was gonna link that if someone hadn't already. i wanted to make sure i was saying it right when i heard someone say it pronounced, La-TACKY-uh, which is incorrect.

i also looked up Perique once a long time ago.

No, it's PEAR-UH-KEE.

No, not right? Damn.

I was one of those people that pronounce(d) it LA-TAH-KIA. Sounds better to me, but I'll say it the "right" way if it makes y'all happy.

I used to say Lah- tAkia

I've been saying it correctly since I started watching Subotaj's youtube videos, and I figured the dude from Israel knew how to pronounce the tobacco grown in that general vicinity
