Any recommendations for additive-free and tribal owned tobacco to look out for?

Much of the native and tribal owned brands I’ve found don’t specify no additive, as far as I was able to see.

Any suggestions or direction is appreciated.

Thank you very much.

    Both are Native-owned, but I don’t know anything about additives and their websites don’t seem to have any details:

    Signal Tobacco

    King Mountain

    I’ve never tried either, though. Signal Tobacco has a decent selection but King Mountain is just cigarettes. Maybe someone else knows about the additives situation.

    If you want just pure cured leaves, one non-Native tobacco business I do patronize is Whole Leaf Tobacco. Their stuff is about as unprocessed as you can get. They’re also the only place I’ve found online that actual carries traditionally made & sourced perique. The only downside may be that they sell in kinda large quantities (I think my smallest order was 4 oz).

      Hm. I came across both of these. I might just need to contact one or more of these Tribes and ask there if no one is quite sure.

      I haven’t seen Whole Leaf Tobacco before. I was hoping to find something at a shop nearby. So, was just going to keep an eye out for whatever suggestions I got.

      Crossing my fingers for a late commenter to save the day.

      Thank you for all your help. If I end up ordering online, I’ll look at Whole Leaf. It sounds interesting. I really appreciate it.

    you can grow it pretty much anywhere, if you’re interested. that’s the way to do it if you’re not already able to get some

      I think I have a good spot for considering this. So, if I find some good seeds from a place I feel comfortable sending money to I’ll probably start whenever the next good start time is.

      Any suggestions?

        a good sunny spot haha

        the only place online that I’ve seen is Centralia Fur and Hide but I’ve only ever gotten leather and drum kits from them

          Thank you!

          I have herbs to add with the tobacco, was just looking for a brand or source of for sure additive free and native owned tobacco for myself and anyone I come across.

          It’s cool to see these tobacco premixes. I’m really tempted try at least try them lol
