Description
Cocaine and the coca plant, from which it is made, have a unique place in the history of recreational and illegal drugs. Despite governments vowing to eliminate it, cocaine has kept its status as the champagne drug, associated in many people's minds with a high-living, high-rolling lifestyle. It has long been the choice of emperors, kings, politicians and pop stars.Tags
