A large number of cigarette manufacturers try to build on brands that have proven successful, the expansion of the family in all the existing trends. Scale of force as the most traditional system of cigarettes differences is the first system, which ran its course. Then, experiments with the design of the package of cigarettes began. Uno Virginia Slims and Vogue is the best example. In both cases, the force of the two versions was the same, but the drafts of two packs left. In addition the UN appeared in a new window perfume packaging. The trend follows the novelty of diversification has taste. Ignoring the traditional menthol and experimenting with flavoring Cigaronne Super Slims, the first segment of a strong tobacco flavor, was not the same custom in the family Vogue Aroma in 2005.

Terminology

What do the numbers mean?

The numbers like "100's" and "120's" refer to the length of the tobacco rod in millimeters.

What is the difference between menthol and... whatever they call non-menthol cigarettes?

The other kind of cigarettes are called 'non-menthol' or regular. The difference is menthol cigarettes have a major non-tobacco additive that make them minty tasting. Very few people enjoy switching from one type to the other... but I do.

Menthol, and Regular... is there anything else?

You bet there is! The next major 'flavor' is Clove. You know cloves... the spice they put on hams - well, turns out they can be mixed with tobacco too! Some brands are extremely strong. Djarium Black is not something one should smoke while driving... or walking. Find a nice place to sit down first. Seriously, you'll thank me.

Menthol, Regular, and Clove... I got it.

Wait there are tons more! Most are self-explanatory; cherry, chocolate, orange mint, mango, et al. One good one worth explaining is Perique. The only brand I know that uses this is American Spirit. It has a quite different taste that I describe as "vaguely cucumber-y... in a good way".

Does filter/non-filter make a difference?

Oh MY Yes! Non-filter cigarettes come in short stubby packs, and don't have a filter end. You can light either end - I choose the end that looks most cohesive to stick in my mouth. Non-filter cigarettes are a completely different smoking experience. They are very easy to inhale from (no resistance from a filter). It is almost as easy as breathing through a straw. The amount of actual smoke you get is much higher (none is absorbed by the filter). If you are just starting - DO NOT start on non-filter cigarettes. Try one after you get a few packs down. Non-filters have tar and nicotine levels 30-45% higher than their filter counterparts.

What about Lights, Mediums, Ultra Lights, and all that?

I'm not sure exactly how lower tar and nicotine levels are produced, but I suspect it has to do with the filter. Lights typically have 50-70% the level of nicoine, Ultras have about 30%.

Why would I want Lights? Aren't I just getting less smokey goodness?

Some people find "full flavored" to be too harsh. Other people think they are doing something 'good' for themselves. Most of the time people will just smoke more Lights, or inhale deeper to get the nicotine levels they want. Buying lights is like getting a Big Mac with a Diet Coke. If you like the taste of Diet Coke; Good for you! But the meal is still fattening.
