A new processing method using Virginia tobaccos cured in Australia and overseas promises better tasting, smoother cigarettes. Granville Tobacco Processors Pty. Ltd. operates a $3,000,000 PURO THRESH plant in Bundamba Queensland and began over two years ago, maturing leaf free of dust and impurities to preserve natural Virginia flavour. The system is rapidly spreading in Europe and North America.
