TA14 Common Smoking Tobacco ( Tabacum Burley )
This is a standard Burley that is grown in several states. It produces a very good tobacco for cigarettes. Grows to 6 ft. with sturdy stalks. One of the most widely grown cultivated tobaccos. Has limited disease resistance, is an excellent choice for first time growers.

TA83 Virginia Brightleaf
A very mild tobacco for cigarettes and pipes. Cures to a light golden color. Grows to 5-6 feet tall with a heavy yield.
-------
TA64 Silkleaf
An old heirloom type that is not hardly found anymore, thanks to New Hope Tobacco for keeping this one available. A good producer of cigarette leaf, plants grow about 6 feet tall, and also does very well in tubs for growers with small amounts of space.
--------
TA81 Oriental Blend
As you probably know, most commercial cigarettes on the market today use a small amount of oriental tobacco ( about 10% normally ) to provide a good full flavor. We have tried a lot of different types, but found many of them too strong. We love this particular variety that was sent to us from a grower in Kentucky whose family has been growing their own tobacco for generations. We cannot pin down the exact variety, but it is the best blending oriental variety we have tested. It provides a full, but not stinging flavor to cigarette blends.
--------
TA55 Black Sea Samsun Turkish
This Turkish tobacco is among the best money can buy. Originating in the Samsun region of Turkey, along the Black Sea, this tobacco is renowned for its unique rich flavor. This plant has smaller leaves than other strains, but a very distinctive aroma. An excellent Turkish blend or unique by itself.
---------
TA101 Golden Seal Special Burley
An up right variety with more leaves than most varieties. Is taller than most varieties on the market. Cures a golden color. Good cigarette selection, one of the heaviest producers.
