KODIAK TOBACCO

'Kodiak' is a brand of dipping tobacco manufactured by Conwood Company, a U.S. smokeless tobacco manufacturer that also produces the Grizzly and Levi Garrett brands.^[1]
Introduced in 1981, Kodiak is currently available in three flavours: ''Wintergreen'', ''Ice'', and ''Straight Cut'', each featuring a picture of a Kodiak bear on the top label.^[2]
The Kodiak Wintergreen variety is a strong brand of dipping tobacco. It is a basic compound with high nicotine content and a pH as high as 8.35.^[3] It has high levels of unprotonated nicotine, "the chemical form... that is most readily absorbed through the mouth into the bloodstream," when compared amongst other brands.
