What is shag cut tobacco?

Shag cut tobacco refers to a type of loose tobacco that is cut into thin, long strands. This type of tobacco is often used for rolling or hand-packing cigarettes, as it provides a consistent burn and allows the user to control the amount of tobacco used in each cigarette. Shag tobacco is typically made from Virginia or Burley tobacco that has been cured and processed to achieve a specific flavor and texture. Some brands of shag tobacco also include additives, such as flavors or preservatives, to enhance the smoking experience. The popularity of shag tobacco has declined in recent years due to increased regulation and decreased demand for traditional tobacco products.
