Levi Garrett is a brand of loose-leaf chewing tobacco produced by the American Snuff Company. Levi Garrett has a noticeably sweet flavour, with a larger cut than America's Best Chew, Beech-Nut, and other brands of loose-leaf chewing tobacco.
History
[edit]
The brand Levi Garrett was introduced on the US market in 1974 by Conwood Corporation of Tennessee (later acquired by Dalfort[1]). By 1981, it was already second in the US chewing tobacco market.[2] Levi Garrett became known for their sponsorship of various teams in the then NASCAR Winston Cup Series. Most notably, the Hendrick Motorsports #5 driven by Geoff Bodine and Ricky Rudd.
