Shag is too full-flavoured for many smokers. ft contains a lot of Nicotine, (and excess of nicotine is a bad ■thing. The habitual use of such tobacco is bound sooner or later to affect the consumer injuriously. Cnfortunatci'y practically all imported tobaccos are heavily charged with nicotine. And in that respect they differ essentially from our New Zealand grown tobaccos, the compfiratively small, amount of nicotine which constitutes one of their chief recommendations. Also—and this is important—they are all toasted, and toasting brings out the flavour of the leaf in a most remarkable way. There are several brands of this popular tollicco. Rlverhoad Gold meld.
