An Oliver Twist chewing tobacco bit begins its life as a microscopic seed. Tobacco seeds are sown in beds and set out manually. The tobacco is harvested just before the leaves are fully matured. Afterward, the tobacco is hung to dry. The air makes the leaves change their color from green to light brown. The dried tobacco leaves will be graded by size and quality, subsequently bundled and sold on auctions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At House of Oliver Twist, we only buy selected American tobacco, i.e. whole, large leaves. The processing begins after a thorough entrance check in our production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The first step in the production process is to remove the center stem of each tobacco leaf. Then the bisected leaves are rolled into long strands by hand. This process takes place in the spinning room by our so-called \u201cspinners.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After further processing, the tobacco strand is cut into 1 cm long pieces and provided with a flavor in the saucery. Casing is the proper technical term for the liquid that provides our chewing tobacco bits with their flavor. Previously, it was called sauce. Being the sauce master is a position of trust. It is the sauce master\u2019s responsibility to guard the utmost production secret. Different flavors and English licorice help give the different variants their character.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Every Oliver Twist chewing tobacco bit consists of a few square centimeters of a tobacco leaf. When you have finished using a tobacco bit, you can unfold it and see that it consists of just one piece of leaf neatly spun by hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The finished Oliver Twist chewing tobacco bits are vacuum packed in bags with 30 pieces each, weighing 7 g, and placed in a small box.<\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
