             The  tobacco   plant   is   one   of   the 
  most   important  commercial  nonfood  crops 
  grown  in   the  Ilocos region.  Mature tobacco 
  plants, reaching one  to  three m  ( 3 to 10 ft ), 
  produce  between  10  and  20  broad   leaves. 
  These are dried,  cured , and used  to  produce 
  cigarettes,  cigars,  and  pipe  and  chewing 
  tobacco.

  tobacco leaves.  Since freshly cured tobacco has a  bitter taste, most cigarette tobacco is dried, cooled, somewhat rehydrated, and
  then stored for two or   three  years. The leaves ferment as they age, becoming  milder and darker
