Tobacco is one of the oldest luxury goods that humans know and have cultivated. Already in prehistoric times, indigenous people in South America grew this nightshade plant, which only thrives in particularly sunny regions.
But it is a long way to enjoy smoking: from sowing the tiny tobacco seeds to harvesting the leaves, drying and fermentation, mixing and processing to cutting and wrapping the tobacco with the special cigarette paper and finally to packaging and delivery of cigarettes for sale.
Cigarettes are tobacco-based smoking products that can be bought as a finished product or in the form of fine-cut that is rolled by the consumer himself. The essential active ingredient is nicotine.
The most important manufacturers, supplying cigarettes for sale in Australia are Philip Morris International (e.g. Marlboro, Chesterfield, L&M), Reemtsma or Imperial Tobacco (e.g. Gauloises, West, John Player Special) and British American Tobacco (e.g. HB, Pall Mall and Lucky Strike).
When it comes to cigarettes for sale in Australia to end consumers, online shops are the most important forms of distribution. In our online shop, you will find cigarettes for sale at the most advantageous prices.
To produce cigarettes for sale, the three types of tobacco are mainly used:
Virginia tobacco
The hot air-dried, large-leaved Virginia tobacco is still an important part of agricultural production today. Virginia tobacco is now also planted in many other regions of the world where there is enough sunshine.
Orient tobacco
The oriental tobacco, which dominated the taste of cigarettes at the beginning of the 20th century, is a small, sun-dried variety that thrives on barren, stony soils.
Burley tobacco
The origin of the name for air-dried Burley tobacco, a strong, dark brown tobacco, is unclear. Presumably a planter in Ohio who first cultivated it gave it its name.
The tobacco plant develops from tiny seeds, 12,000 of which weigh just one gram. For the seeds, the seeds are mixed with water and “poured” into seed beds, because this is the only way to ensure an even distribution of the plants.
