There is no tax on the bag. Just a 25 cent surcharge.

Each state is different regarding the taxes on various tobacco products (OTP) but there are both federal and state taxes on the loose tobacco, it is just not as onerous or obvious as the taxes on cigarettes.

Well, it's a 6 oz bag of tobacco for $5.85. Are you saying the actual bag of tobacco cost only $1.50? LOL
