Organically grown in little clearings in the Amazon rain forest, the yield is less than half that of a traditional plant. To further add to its scarcity the land is left fallow for two years after each crop. \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eFermentation is achieved by rolling the leaves into compact tubes, known as carottes, and leaving them to mature for 6 months.
