<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\nThe Facts About Pipe Tobacco <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
For many cigarette smokers, the term \u201cpipe tobacco\u201d doesn\u2019t come to mind, especially if the person doesn\u2019t smoke tobacco from a pipe. However, pipe tobacco is the SAME tobacco found in cigars and cigarettes! As we mentioned above, there are 3 types of tobacco leaves used to make cigarettes, pipe tobacco blends, and cigars. These 3 different types are Virginia, Burley, & Turkish. Virginia tobacco is flue-cured. This means that the tobacco leaf is naturally heated, usually by fire, which gives it a beautiful golden-brown color. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Burley tobacco consists of higher amounts of nicotine and is air-cured. However, smoking this good stuff alone is too harsh to inhale, which is why it\u2019s so compatible with Virginia tobacco. After the curing phase is complete, these 3 different types of leaves are sent to a processing department where the ribs and veins are separated from the tobacco leaf. After this step is complete, the leaves will go through a highly-controlled aging process, which generally lasts for several months. This step is necessary as it enhances the tobacco\u2019s characteristics in terms of quality and flavor. <\/p>\n\n\n\n With all those facts out of the way, it\u2019s now time to dive into the money! We\u2019ve been in the tobacco business for several decades, so when it comes to saving money and smoking for less, we have a lot of experience. Not only do we sell tobacco, but we also roll our own cigarettes! It\u2019s cheaper, better tasting, less harmful, and most importantly, satisfying! <\/p>\n\n\n\n On average, you can score a 1lb (16oz) bag of pipe tobacco for roughly $15, usually cheaper. Next, you\u2019ll need to buy 3 boxes of filtered cigarette tubes. Each box comes with 200 tubes, so 3 boxes equal 30 packs; or 3 cartons. So why do we recommend 3 boxes of tubes? Well, 1lb of pipe tobacco will easily yield 600 full-size or 100mm RYO cigarettes! A box of tubes costs about $3 on average. That said, you can produce up to 30 packs of smokes for less than $25, we\u2019ll let you do the math on how much you could be saving! Now that you know the cost of rolling your own cigarettes from home, or from wherever you might be, it\u2019s time to get an electric cigarette rolling machine! From our experience, we recommend the Powermatic IV. Indeed, this bad boy is tough, durable, made with stainless steel parts, jam-resistant, compact, quiet, and can produce 20 cigarettes, 1 pack, in about 5-7 minutes, depending on quick you are at rolling! <\/p>\n\n\n\n The process of operating a Powermatic is super easy, anyone can do it for sure! All you have to do is plug it in, fill up the hopper with loose pipe tobacco, slide on a filtered cigarette tube, push a little tobacco into the chamber, and pull the lever down, and boom, you have 1 freshly made RYO cigarette! After that, you\u2019ll repeat the process until the hopper is empty. <\/p>\n\n\n\n When it comes to this part, there are no right or wrong brands to select from as everyone has their own preferences. However, there are some brands that are more popular than others, and for a good reason! Again, this part is based on opinion, and of course, sales. This brand comes in 16oz & 6oz bags.

That\u2019s right; pipe tobacco comes in both American blends or Turkish blends. The difference between the two is simple; American consists of 3 blends, Virginia, Burley, and Oriental also-known-as Turkish tobacco. As for the Turkish blend, it consists of only Burley and Turkish. To understand the difference, Marlboros are an American blend, and Camels are made from a Turkish blend.
So as you can see, pipe tobacco is the same thing as cigarette tobacco. So what\u2019s the difference you may be wondering? Well, there are some major points of interest here, and we\u2019re going to tell it how it is! No sugar-coating, only facts.
First and foremost, pipe tobacco isn\u2019t laced with thousands of harmful chemicals such as so-called regular cigarettes! So if you\u2019ve been wondering why cigarettes are state-regulated and not available for online purchasing, well, it\u2019s because of all the extra-added chemicals! Since pipe tobacco and cigar tobacco are made from just pure tobacco, then there\u2019s not much ground for extra regulations. As a benefit, you can buy online, nationwide, and for the same price, regardless of where you live in the USA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.bluegrasstobacco.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Facts-About-Pipe-Tobacco.jpg\")
