Our Shade Leaf is velvety and thin, which is what is to be expected in high quality Shade Tobacco, but in a lower cost, mixed, low grade consistency. Carries a fresh, yet earthy tone musk with a top note of spice. When moistened, it is a very thin and pliable leaf.
Leaf Only is offering mixedShade Tobacco for your enjoyment. Shade Leaf is often difficult to source because many of the larger purchasers will buy out the farms entire crop even before they grow it! This is a mix of lower quality shade leaf from the few types we carry.
PLEASE NOTE: This is a MIX of lower quality consistency leaf generated by the moving and packing of whole leaf.
"I ordered a few pounds of virginia and turkish tobacco from you folks and just processed my first batch. I have to say I am floored by the quality. I've been smoking pipes for more than 20 years now, so I know good tobacco -- and your tobacco is top shelf. I wasn't sure what to expect but not only is your tobacco tasty, it also has a nicotine kick like an angry mule.
I am very impressed. Thank you. I'll be referring my friends to you, and you can be sure I'll be ordering from you in the future.
