Orinoco Tobacco Seeds (Nicotiana tabacum)
General Description:
Orinoco is a hardy, traditional tobacco variety known for its rich flavor and robust growth. Originating from South America, this variety is often used for both smoking and chewing tobacco. It’s highly valued for its strong aroma and balanced flavor, making it a popular choice in premium tobacco blends.
Plant Characteristics:
Orinoco grows up to 5–6 feet (1.5–1.8 meters) tall with large, broad leaves that turn from light green to golden-brown after curing. The leaves are thick, slightly wrinkled, and packed with essential oils, making them ideal for air-curing. The plant produces small pink flowers and thrives in warm, sunny conditions.
Taste and Benefits:
Orinoco offers a rich, full-bodied flavor with earthy and slightly spicy undertones. It has a moderate nicotine content, making it ideal for those who enjoy a satisfying, strong smoke without being overwhelming. It’s widely used in both cigarettes and pipe tobacco blends, contributing a robust and aromatic flavor.
Cultivation Recommendations:
Sow seeds indoors 6–8 weeks before the last frost. Lightly press seeds onto the soil surface, as they require light to germinate. Maintain a temperature of 75°F (24°C) and keep the soil moist. Germination typically occurs within 7–14 days. Transplant outdoors after the last frost, spacing plants 2–3 feet apart. Orinoco thrives in full sun and well-drained, fertile soil. Regular watering and occasional fertilization will support healthy growth. Harvest leaves as they mature from the bottom up, and air-cure them in a shaded, ventilated area for 4–6 weeks to develop their rich, aromatic flavor.
Uses and Benefits:
Ideal for creating robust cigarettes, cigars, and pipe tobacco blends, Orinoco is prized for its strong, earthy flavor and smooth smoke.
Packaging:
Each packet contains premium-quality Orinoco tobacco seeds, carefully selected for high germination and bold flavor.
Shipping Information:
Orders are processed within 1–2 days and shipped worldwide, including within India. Delivery typically takes 1–2 weeks.
