“What constitutes good tobacco?’’ asks a writer in the “New York Tobacco Journal,” and he sums up the points thus: (1) Flavour, (2) bouquet, (3) combustibility—it must burn away to the last particle, (4) colour, (5) it must not burn the +ongue, (6) the most important of all—it must contain little nicotine, because nicotine is a deadly poison..” Having described the ideal tobacco our expert confesses he has not the faintest idea, where it can be obtained, or whether it can be obtained at all. Were he in New Zealand he would know that such tobacco may he bought at the nearest tobacconist’s shop. Our New Zealand toasted tobacco possesses every one of his six qualities, and is specially noticeable for its freedom from nicotine. That is because it is toasted. You can smoke it as freely as you please. It is harmless. Famous for flavour and aroma, too. There are four brands only: Riverhead Gold, Cavendish, Navy Cut No. 3, and Cut Plug No. 10. No other toasted tobacco is manufactured,.
