“Give me a pipe and a good detective yarn and I wouldn’t call the Queen my Aunt.” Thus a well-known Wellington journalist to the writer the other day. “I remember,” he went on, "when I couldn’t smoke more than a couple of pipes at a time with comfort. Too much nicotine in the imported tobacco. Now I use toasted New Zealand and can smoke till further orders with keen enjoyment. It’s the toasting that does the trick, old man. Cuts out the nicotine, so that you can smoke for hours on end if you want. And doesn’t the toasting bring out the flavour and bouquet There are only four brands of toasted— Riverhead Gold, Cavendish, Navy Cut No. 3 and Cut Plug No. 10. All different strengths and all best sellers.’ I prefer Navy Cut No. 3 myself. But it’s all a matter of taste. My tobacconist says' the New Zealand toasted is preferred by most of his customers to the foreign brand.” This smoker’s verdict is the general one. And he says: “It’s the toasting that does the trick!”
