THE SKIPPER

By using both jamaican and nicaraguan filler leaf, the brand pays deference to the ancient historic relationship between jamaica and nicaragua when the two were geologically connected by a land bridge known as the nicaraguan rise.

The upsetters as well pays homage to the earliest known origins of tobacco cultivation and use, where the blending process originally included the infusion methods that incorporated ancient caribbean herbs into the leaves.
