About the Product<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many people who smoke seek alternatives to regular cigarettes because they are becoming more aware of the potentially hazardous chemicals and additives that are often included in traditional cigarettes. This is where Organic smokes come into the picture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Organic Smokes is an ayurvedic smoking therapy manufactured with herbal ingredients, including a mixture of holy basil, camellia sinensis, rose petals, and mint leaves organically sourced from the Himalayan highlands and rolled in virgin paper with a cotton filter. It contains a tar-free filter to make smoking a healthier experience and also produces therapeutic smoke that helps with stress, jet lag, depression, the common cold, and smoking cessation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It gives you the same satisfaction as regular smoking without impacting your health. Organic smokes are also approved by Ayush Ministry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Organic cigarettes are free of dangerous ingredients such as nicotine, tobacco, and any addictive substance. The paper they\u2019ve used is also organic. It is oxymoronic paper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The products are available on their website, pharmacies, wellness stores, and local Pan shops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The founders (cousins) have a pharmaceutical background, and their family is involved in Ayurvedic medicine. They were themselves smokers, and the concept of organic smokes was derived only from smoking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One regular day, when smoking, they thought of using some other ingredients other than tobacco. So, they gathered some basil, green tea, and rose petals, formed a combination, wrapped it into a piece of paper, and smoked it. They also talked with physicians to assure that it was safe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They tried with numerous combinations to create organic cigarettes without nicotine. They turned to Ayurveda for solutions and came up with the concept of combining basil leaves and green tea as fundamental ingredients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following eight months of product testing, they discovered a combination that got positive feedback from family and friends. The end result is Organic Smokes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
