(AU) Strong, rough tobacco of the kind issued to Aboriginal labourers on a rural property.
‘Did you require much capital to start out here, Bob?’ I inquired. ‘Just on one hundred pounds, a couple of pack-mules, a saddle, a few old bags and a bit of wire, a case of nigger twist tobacco, an axe, - and a rifle thrown in.’
