StreetCowboy Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 What is your favourite brand of cigarettes? Personally, I prefer a really tight roll-up, but failing that, Marlboro Light Menthol. What about you? SC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rsquared Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 I've never smoked..........but once in my previous life when I was all at sea, my look-out used to smoke "Bank" and it had such a pleasant aroma that I was even tempted to take up the habit myself..........fortunately I relented. But I still remember the smell of Bank Tobacco.....don't know if they still make it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jingthing Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 Back in my salad days, I used to like Dunhills while sipping Courvoisier Cognac VSOP. I didn't inhale. I did swallow. The Volvo came later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisinth Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 I started smoking L & M Red over here as they were the closest I could find, IMO, to Embassy Regal which I smoked in UK for years. Lately I have been smoking L & M Lek because I can get more of them into my cigarette case (used to hate having crumpled soft packs in my pockets). I honestly never realised until about a month ago that they are about 10 baht a packet cheaper than the regular L & M's. Granted, smaller cigarettes, but the same flavour.

Can you reuse them? If they're fibre-glass, they shouldn't bio-degrade at all; like other mineral products, they just get broken down to dust. One of the things I like about a roll-up, or a pipe, is the opportunity for constructive and contemplative fidgeting. What about those Indonesian clove cigarettes? Does anyone like them? SC Slightly off-topic, I know, but I like brand names; most brands are based on a strong quality ethos, and you know what to expect from your brand.

SC Slightly off-topic, I know, but I like brand names; most brands are based on a strong quality ethos, and you know what to expect from your brand. Indonesian clove cigarettes? Excellent reason to give up if that was all that was available.............. Had a GF once that made them quite often; at least I think it was clove she was using. She smoked roll-ups as well and sprinkled the cloves into them, but they were really long. She was very protective with her recipe and used to hide it in the strangest of places. I didn't really like them because they made me laugh, I think it may have been an allergy...............

MrMuddle Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 When I was an apprentice, many years ago, part of the job was to get sandwiches, newspapers, sweets and cigarettes, for the older chaps in the factory. One man smoked "Passing Clouds", which were oval shaped and had a lovely smell - anyone remember them ? I started out on Players No. 6, then graduated to the (slightly) harder stuff.

Yes I remember them - as 11 year olds we were experimenting with exotic brands from the local tobacconist and I was sent for something we had not yet tried. When I returned to our hideout, none of us could understand how the packet had not been crushed in my jeans pocket but the cigs were misshapen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
