Toasted tobacco? “AVhat’s the great idea?” you may ask. AVell, if you have not yet tried what toasting will do for tobacco leaf you’ve a pleasure in store. All our well-known New Zealand grown tobaccos are toasted in the making. This develops thpir flavour, and aroma, just as the toasting . (or roasting) of coffee or cocoa beans brings out tho flavour and fragrance. These tobaccos arc the purest on the market, largely because they contain so little nicotine, while the imported brands are all more or less loaded with it. Now do you seo why the doctors recommend New Zealand tobacco ? The proof of the pudding is in the eating, and the proof of the “need” is in the smoking. Those who try the New Zealand tobaccos quickly get to perfer them to all others. Hence tlieir constantly increasing sale everywhere. You can get them in any strength. “Riverhead G01d,”.. a beautiful aromatic; “Navy Cut,” a choice medium; and “Cut Plug No. 10,” a fine full flavoured variety. “Cavendish Mixture” medium is the latest addition.
