A clean base for whatever
you're blending.
Dried taro leaves that burn slow and let your own flavors lead. Grown and sun-dried in East Java, Indonesia, our "talas beneng" (Xanthosoma undipes) gives herbal cigarette and tobacco-substitute makers a nicotine-free leaf they can build on.
A neutral leaf that stays in the background.
"Talas beneng" (Xanthosoma undipes) is a species of taro. Its fertilizer-free leaves are sun-dried and used as a base in herbal smoking products, where they act as a neutral layer that carries whatever flavors a blender adds.
The leaf goes into herbal cigarettes, tobacco-free cigars, and shisha. Its role is the same in all three: to hold a steady burn and stay in the background so the added flavors come through. It's naturally nicotine-free, burns slow and even, and its aroma is mild enough not to compete with whatever it's blended with.
