John Rolfe obtained tobacco seeds from the Caribbean, specifically from Trinidad and Tobago. He imported the seeds to Virginia in the early 1600s, where he began cultivating a strain of tobacco that was more palatable and commercially viable than the native varieties. This successful cultivation played a crucial role in establishing tobacco as a cash crop in the Virginia colony, significantly impacting its economy.
