Bulgartabac has invented and implements the artificial tobacco
fermentation. Chamber fermentation was first applied in the
country in 1965. Bulgartabac's experts are still leading in
constructing and using chambers for tobacco fermentation as
well as in applying specific fermentation regimes for Oriental
tobacco. Recently, some of the tobacco lots were naturally
fermented at the request of some of our customers.
Oriental tobacco is processed
in the following areas:
Dupnitza, Blagoevgrad, Gotze Delchev, Sandanski, Pazardjik,
Plovdiv, Pirvomai, Harmanli, Haskovo, Stara Zagora, Kirdjali,
Topolovgrad, Asenovgrad, Smoljan, Yambol, Shumen, Dulovo and

technology for these types.
