SHAG is a type of cut tobacco that is made up of long, thin strands. ROAD is a type of cut tobacco that is made up of short, thick strands. TAMP is a type of cut tobacco that is made up of small, medium-length strands. Finally, TWEED is a type of cut tobacco that is made up of large, coarse strands. All of these types of cut tobacco are used to make up coarse tobacco.
