Super kings menthol, consulate, and now and again, I see carols no 1 menthol.

berger89 · 27-12-2014 10:38pm

Jeez, didn't know you could get menthol carrolls. is that new? i work in a shop and we haven't gotten them yet. no doubt they'll be popular. has anyone noticed how more and more people are smoking menthol cigarettes (and tobaccos like amber leaf-->nbut thats cheaper)

i think its disgraceful on the part of cig companies. they know their market. and they'll keep going and going.menthol is seen as cooler or some ****e like that.

pudzey101 · 27-12-2014 10:39pm

pudzey101 · 27-12-2014 10:56pm

superking where the finest i just didnt know u could still get them

( something about banning menthol fags as it attracts younger smokers) i read somewhere

beertons · 27-12-2014 10:59pm

Banning menthol is the least of your problems. They're trying to ban cig machines in pubs, clubs, hotels and restaurants. Starting from January 18th I think.

berger89 · 27-12-2014 11:01pm

Yeah it's crazy. There's definitely been an increase in young people smoking. I think its disgusting and disgraceful how cigarette companies target them. I know there's no open advertising allowed anymore but doesn't stop young people. And the novelty of pressing a clicky thing and suddenly you've lovely menthol.
Same goes for tobacco. Amber leaf is the "cool" stuff. You get your filters and papers in the packet. It's "cool" to be rolling.

Happy smoking!

Hope they do. I suppose this banning of smoking in cars with kids is the start of it. Long may it continue!

pudzey101 · 27-12-2014 11:05pm

Are you more a social smoker?

Just a reminder that the Charter mentions that this forum is for the positives of smoking and not for ranting and raving about bans/potential bans. Keep it on topic,ie. Menthol Cigarettes please.

yeah benson most of the time , but was at a bus stop today and a guy next to me had a menthol fag , was close to asking him for one but then id seem like a bum :cool: was a very slim feminine looking ciggy what ever it was

berger89 · 27-12-2014 11:17pm

Vogue slims!!
(ugh I hate knowing so much about cigarettes, esp. when I'm not a smoker!)

beertons · 27-12-2014 11:18pm

I get asked every 6 months about stocking menthol. havent sold them in around 15 years.

beertons · 13-01-2015 11:14pm

Saw a carton of John player menthol earlier. There's another one for your list.

pudzey101 · 14-01-2015 4:13am

cheers man !! got the superkings

fruttituttii · 14-01-2015 4:52am

I always go for the long Mayfair but why do people buy the short when you can get the long ones for the same price?

I never got into the longer cigarettes. Took too long to smoke them. If only sick cut red were that little bit bigger though, they lasted no time. And were beautiful.

berger89 · 14-01-2015 11:42am

Longer cigs are stronger

Consulate strong ? - Are you having a laugh ? Consulate are like smoking air with a hint of menthol.

If you want strong coffin nails go for Woodbines or Capstan.

Pretty sure you can't get woodbines these days.

SMJSF · 17-01-2015 4:41pm

I used to smoke the pall mall click - on (navy pack) but I've noticed they changed the taste of the menthol (to practically nothing), so went on to malboro gold beyond - so much nicer!

SMJSF · 17-01-2015 4:42pm

oh and I found silk cut choice is like smoking Vicks (the decongestant)!!

Camel are also doing a 'Active' pack - Camel Blue with a a clicker to give you menthol.

Long Gone · 20-01-2015 10:26pm

A clicker ? How does that work ?

I think it's in the filter. You bite it if you want to change the flavour.
