Definition of Hand Kretek Cigarette
Clove cigarettes are a typical cultural part of the Indonesian nation and have become an important part of history. Clove cigarettes were first discovered in Indonesia initially made in houses, rolled, and then wrapped using corn husks, or known as klobot. The ingredients for making clove cigarettes are tobacco and cloves that are cut into small pieces and then mixed with tobacco concoction. The term kretek is known because when the cigarette is sounded, it will make a “kretek kretek” sound.
Cigarettes in their manufacture are divided into two types, among which are first, hand clove cigarettes (SKT) are cigarettes made by grinding or rolling using hands assisted by simple manufacturing tools. Second, machined clove cigarettes (SKM) are cigarettes made using machines.
