The world produces hundreds of varieties of tobacco, but few like the toasted brands of New Zealand. And the toasting it is that differentiates them from all other tobaccos. It is toasting that imparts to them their well-known flavour and bouquet—yes, and it does more than that, for it helps so materially to purify them that they are practically free from nicotine. This is a point of tremendous importance to smokers. Nicotine cannot be absorbed into the system without, sooner or later, seriously affecting heart, nerves or eyesight. The imported brands are more or less full of it. Toasted tobaccos are not. You can smoke them with absolute safety as freely as you please. Of what other tobaccos can that be said? We do not know of a single one. Hence the constantly increasing demand for these goods. Here are the brands: Riyerhead Gold Desert Gold, Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog), Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead), Cavendish, also toasted tailormades.
