Threshed Burley Tobacco (50 lbs)

New Item (50 lbs.) Aged Threshed / Stripped Burley Tobacco (2007 crop year) Threshed tobacco is whole leaf that has had the mid-rib removed. This tobacco is high to medium nicotine content. Comparable to no other whole leaf Burley available anywhere. This tobacco is cured in a manner by which the nitrogen is removed from the leaf giving it a smooth full flavored tobacco flavor. This tobacco can be smoked without blending or casing. The threshing process is completed mechanically so there will be traces of the mid-rib mixed in. Please understand, because of the way this tobacco is processed, there will be mostly small pieces of leaf, but average about 2" wide x 4" long. Further processing of this tobacco will almost certainly require a mechanical shredder. Don't let the size fool you, once it is shredded, it looks like all other tobacco. The price per pound $10.50. This item is shipped from our North Carolina warehouse.
