Velo: A Journey Through Time
The history of Velo and its impact on the tobacco industry is fascinating. Let's take a journey through time to discover the key turning points that led to its creation and popularity.
Turning Point #1: The Creation
The very first cigar was only conceptually like the ones we're enjoying today. It is believed that Central American Mayans in or before the 10th century were the first makers of cigars. However, Velo is not a cigar. It is a modern oral nicotine product that is challenging the traditional tobacco industry.
Turning Point #2: The 'Discovery'
BAT (British American Tobacco) has conducted a cross-sectional clinical study of Velo, which is designed to provide new insights into the real-world health impact of its modern oral nicotine pouches. Velo is an alternative to cigarettes and other smoking products, delivering a nicotine high in a way that is less damaging to the lungs and other organs.
Turning Point #3: The Cuban Legend
Although Velo is a modern product, it draws inspiration from the classic Cuban cigar. The origins of the Cuban cigar can be traced back to the 15th century. The tobacco leaves grown in the rich soils of Cuba were soon recognized as the best in the world. The popularity of the Cuban cigar soared, with famous figures like Napoleon, Winston Churchill, and John F. Kennedy all indulging in the luxury smoke.
Turning Point #4: Coming to America
As the Cuban cigar's popularity grew, so did its export demand. The US became the biggest market for Cuban cigars, and it was only natural that Cuban cigar manufacturing plants would set up shop in the US. However, the Cuban Revolution changed everything.
Turning Point #5: The Cuban Revolution
In 1960, Fidel Castro's government seized American-owned businesses, including cigar factories. The Cuban cigar tobacco industry shifted to communist state ownership, with the brand name Cohiba leading the charge. With Cuba no longer exporting its cigars to US, the door opened for competition.
Turning Point #6: The Boom
The cigar boom of the 1990s saw the introduction of high-end cigars from non-Cuban countries, thereby increasing competition. This boom was spurred in large part by the cigar enthusiasts who were seeking a luxurious, high-quality smoke. Velo is continuing this trend of offering a deluxe experience with a healthier alternative to traditional tobacco products.
Turning Point #7: An Opening
VELÓ hadir dalam dua jenis kemasan, dalam kemasan can dengan isi 20 kantong seharga Rp. Velo is now available in various countries worldwide, providing consumers with an alternative to traditional tobacco products. The modern oral nicotine pouches are a convenient and healthier alternative, proving that technology can improve even the most time-honored traditions.
In conclusion, Velo may have been inspired by century-old traditions, but it marks a new era in nicotine use. Its journey through time has seen it evolve from humble beginnings, through a revolution, to becoming the modern product it is today. The future looks bright for Velo and the tobacco industry.
