If you knew
what ageing in wood
does for pipe tobacco
Even the finest Kentucky
Burley Tobacco (and that's the
kind we use) is green and raw
when it'spulled. You could hardly
smoke one pipe load of it.
And here's where Velvet is dif
ferent: Our ageing takes out that
rawness and harshness, and
makes the tobacco mild and mel
low and gives iL fine flavor. Age
ing in wood does what no artificial
treatment can do.
Remenber-Velvet Tobacco
aged in wood.
