SPINJIM 1,981 #4 Posted October 2, 2018 The tobacco grown by the Amish in PA has a lower nicotine content. It is mixed with southern tobacco to balance the nicotine in cigarettes.

We have plenty of it here in Tennessee ! Probably a bumper crop this year with the wet season we have had. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
