Cavendish tobacco
Summary

Type of heat-treated tobacco

page=124}}</ref>

The varieties of tobacco leaves most commonly used to create Cavendish tobacco are Virginia and Burley.

The flavorings include sugar, cherry, maple, honey, licorice, chocolate, coconut, rum, strawberry, vanilla, walnut and bourbon.

Process

After being cured, Cavendish tobaccos are steamed and then pressed into a cake approximately 2.5 cm (1 in) thick. Then the cake is heated using fire or steam, allowing the tobacco to ferment. After, the fermented cakes are cut into slices and packed into pipes (a large wooden barrel). Finally, flavoring may be added before the leaves are pressed again. English Cavendish uses a dark flue or fire cured Virginia, which is steamed and then stored under pressure to allow it to cure and ferment for several days or weeks.
