“The traditional tobacco, was strong. It had a big kick to it,” Siletz tribal member Robert Kentta says. “Because it was so strong, only older men really smoked it on a regular basis because they didn’t have to get things done as much throughout the day and, and whatnot. So apparently it was strong enough that it would kind of lay you out and make you unproductive for a period of time.”

So this tobacco might just be the ticket for you old farts that are retired… us working folk need not apply!

I can relate all too well to that.

Personally, I'm an old fart but not yet retired. In any case it sounds as if the intention is to keep this tobacco more for traditional and ceremonial use. I'm happy to see it is being returned to its original home. Thanks for sharing this story, Charlie.

I dunno Darin.
This might be a blend to set you off running with a tomahawk in a loincloth, out on a snowy night and there is the local Sheriff.

Pre 1980, saw Ted Nugent in a loincloth in his scream dream tour… talk about a madman on the stage! He says he has never did drugs, not into alcohol… something has to be at the root….prolly some good tobacco.
