The Coca leaves available through the site i posted above are the same type of leaves being used in the popular carbonated beverage Coca-cola. Coca-cola was introduced in 1886 as “a valuable brain-tonic and cure for all nervous afflictions”. Coca-cola was promoted as a temperance drink “offering the virtues of coca without the vices of alcohol”. The new beverage was invigorating and popular. Until 1903, a typical serving contained around 60mg of cocaine. Sold today, it still contains an extract of coca-leaves. The Coca-Cola Company in the United States imports eight tons from South America each year. The leaves you get through our blog still contain cocaine and yes these are legal to import into every country.
