I'm thinking of ordering Shepheard's Hotel, is there more than one variety? The Phillips and King catalogue has two options; "cubes" and "Oriental cubes," what's the difference?

I've never heard of this distinction--the ones I bought came in a light green package with what appeared to be a greyhound dog as its logo. Today I bought some Dunhill Reds, which didn't taste that great. Upon examining the package, I noticed they were made in Singapore. They also changed to packaging into something "contemporary," not unlike the UPS logo. I also dislike how long modern cigarettes are; I have to manually cut them to size in order to fit them into my cigarette cases--it's slightly messy and makes the cigarette somewhat wrinkled looking.

I'd like to try the elusive and exclusive Panda cigarettes.

I think I'll also give the Nat Sherman Havana Ovals a try.

No, have you?

Their website looks pretty interesting, and has some interesting slideshows regarding tobacco.

Call me a nancy, but lately all I've been smoking are the super-ultra lights (1mg tar, 0.1 mg nicotine). It's essentially just smoking filtered air (which is probably preferable to LA smog).

These days it's more about the oral fixation/act of smoking rather than a nicotine fix.

When I run out of my internet bought moldovian/ukranian imported smokes, I usually settle for mild seven super lights.
- I've been trying to get mild seven ones, but the don't seem to be available outside of japan and no online company has them available.

A lot of exotic ones here. Camel Wides or Kool XLs. Sometimes I'll try other things or two for ones. I also bum a lot of Marlboro Reds from my dad.

Although I rarely smoke, someone threw me a pack of these a while ago:

Very similar to Dunhill in smoothness and taste. I miss my lucky strike filters dearly, though.

I usually smoke cigars but I can go for Gitanes Mais if theres not decent cigars available.

 

[Aficionado]

Ups. Double

When they find a cure for all these diseases that cigarette smoking causes, I will head for the nearest gas station, buy a carton of Marlboro Reds, and a 6 pack of Heineken, and I will smoke every one of those motherfuckers in one sitting.

There, I said my piece.

I don't smoke anymore, but this thread brings me back. I used to love Gauloise Blondes when I could get them.

Right now the blue Dunhills and Marlborogh Light- Red Gauloises at times, too...when I was a teen I also obtained some hard to get or unconventional cigs when I was abroad- e.g. Sobrainies, black and cocktails or stuff that wasnt available in my country at that time like St. Moritz (still hard to get btw, dunno if they sell it at all anymore) or Silk Cut (very long ago) which is widely avaiöable now and that I actually still like...

From Japan Tobacco I esp. like/ed Peace and Cabin...
