    How did rolling tobacco and loose tobacco, get to be so popular? You may not know that these types of tobacco originated with natives of the american supercontinent.  For many centuries they had been using it as part of their spiritual practices. Shamans would smoke it during different rituals such as medicine making or healing rituals. However, Europeans didn’t know about the leaf until they encountered indigenous people during colonisation periods. Early settlers noticed that some tribesmen were carrying wrapped leaves stuffed into pipes or rolled up into cylinders and dried before being lit on fire. Later learning that these were strong leaves, often produced from plants like Nicotiana rustica or Nicotiana tabacum.

    The history of smoking tobacco

    The recorded history of tobacco goes the back to the early 1400s. Before this time, it was smoked for its stimulant properties by indigenous people in what is now America. Europeans used it for similar purposes and introduced it as a medicine when they first arrived in what is now The United States of America.  Eventually it became an integral part of culture.

    How native americans used tobacco in ceremonies

     

    Native Americans used tobacco in many different ways for ceremonies. One way was by using it as an offering to appease spirits. After smoking, they would then scatter any remaining tobacco from their pipe or hand to ensure that everything had been returned into nature and balance was restored.

    Native Americans also smoked tobacco during peace negotiations with other tribes as well as individuals, which is what happens when someone offers you something and you refuse (apparently they don’t call them peace pipes for nothing).  While tobacco started as this important religious sacrament, it was then used for recreational purposes for many centuries afterwards. It didn’t take long before Europeans began importing tobacco and shipping it back home. The American colonies soon found themselves addicted to tobacco and there were even laws established that sought to control its distribution. There was, following on from this, taxes on imported tobacco leaves so the government could profit. While attitudes towards tobacco have changed over time, it’s still one of those substances some people can’t seem to live without.

    Caring for rolling tobacco 

    There are many things to keep in mind when storing rolling tobacco. One must keep in mind that humidity and heat can affect how long it will last. Humidors and tobacco containers will help with this.  It’s important not to store smoking products on top of each other so they don’t interfere with one another’s flavour profile or quality. If there is any doubt about whether or not your rolling tobacco is still usable, stick your nose deep into the opening of the container and take a deep breath – if you smell anything other than fresh tobacco then you have expired goods that should be disposed of.

    How to make your loose tobacco last for a long time

    You can make your loose tobacco last for an extended period by first packing your pipe. Load it with just enough tobacco to get it started. Then tamp it down firmly before setting fire to it. This will produce dense smoke that not only tastes better but lasts longer as well.
