CH’IYARA (means black in Aymara). This color firmly represents the type of dark Creole tobacco, processed in an ancestral way by one of the grandparents, who safeguards the ancestral knowledge.
Our Black flavor is called CH’ÍYARA and it is a blend of these 2 types of tobacco grown with regenerative agricultural practices:
· 80% Criollo tobacco: harvested in Misiones, it is the oldest variety of tobacco, dried in the shade (not with heat sources like Virginia). It is darker, with a harsher and less sweet flavor than Virginia.
· 20% rope tobacco: harvested in Misiones and hand-chopped at our location in Córdoba. It has ancient artisanal curing: when the leaf is still green, it is twisted into a rope, which pulls the sap out of the plant, which then oxidizes. In this way, it cures, and takes on that black appearance and particular taste.

Complexity:
By fulfilling our commitment, we managed to achieve 100% tobacco from regenerative agriculture, coming from fields with clean soils and healthy producers. We evolve towards the ancestral.
We offer natural tobaccos, without additives and cut into fine strands for greater ease of assembly.
The tobacco plants are dried with intense heat (above 70 degrees) in different establishments for 7 days. In this drying process, the caramelization of the sugars occurs, giving it its blonde, yellow color.
This conditioning of the tobacco is carried out only with water vapor without chlorine. Then we proceed to chop it, “hairdressing” type, taking special care that the tobacco reaches the consumer with a precise humidity of 15%.
By not containing any type of additive, your tobacco can dry out. We invite you to see how to condition it properly and give it the natural flavor of your preference, by clicking here.
By purchasing our products, you are financially supporting small farmers to produce tobacco without the use of agrochemicals.
