Our leaf grows on family-run fields in the foothills of northern Azerbaijan — warm summers, mountain water and long growing days. Seedlings are raised under cover, then planted out in rows each spring.

Grown by partner farms. Sourced and coordinated by us.

Technical reference

Nicotine & sugar, by tobacco type.

Four tobacco types, as reported in the Azerbaijani source document. The source does not establish a correspondence between these numbered types and our four commercial grades.

Reported leaf composition (%) · Source dated 10 October 2026
Tobacco type	Nicotine (%)	Sugar (%)
Type 11-ci növ	0.9%	25%
Type 22-ci növ	1.0%	24%
Type 33-cü növ	1.1%	20%
Type 44-cü növ	1.3%	15%
Arithmetic mean	1.075%	21%

Across these four entries, nicotine rises from 0.9% to 1.3% and sugar falls from 25% to 15%. The largest sugar decrease is between Types 3 and 4: 5 percentage points.

Reference values only. The source does not specify the measurement basis, laboratory, method or sample identifiers. It provides no mapping to commercial grades. Confirm lot-specific results before ordering.
