The best brands of cigarettes

Top 10 most expensive cigarettes in the world. If we do harm our health, then it is the best tobacco. Let's find out the brands of these cigarettes.

Lucky strike

How quickly (in 1 minute) to spend 100 thousand dollars? Despite the seeming pleasure, it is almost impossible to lose such a tidy sum in 1 minute - but not for true lovers of tobacco products. Those who know a lot about tobacco have heard about the most expensive pack of cigarettes in the entire history of tobacco smoking - and it was made as an exhibition exhibit. Lucky Strike painted the pack with gold, inlaid with ruby ​​and diamond. With such a work of art, the very process of smoking is the highest degree of foppishness and wastefulness - and yet there is still a demand for the rarest model.

An ordinary smoker cannot afford to buy a pack for 100 thousand US dollars, but a well-known company is not going to sell them either - such beauty in itself is almost a work of art, but due to direct propaganda it does not receive widespread "distribution to the masses."

Treasurer

24 euros per pack - this is the cost of the second most expensive cigarettes in the world. Treasurer is the brainchild of the popular tobacco brand Chancellor Tobacco, and is limited to just 10,000 packs. Literally, cigarettes are translated as "Treasurer" and are sold in only 50 stores in the world.

The price was not chosen by chance: each cigarette is “hand made” and bears the company's holographic mark. Tobacco for smoking - only of the highest quality: Virginia has an unwavering authority among smokers. As tobacco lovers themselves say, enjoying an expensive cigarette allows you to forget about the dangers of smoking. Better to spend money on one pack of quality tobacco than to “choke” on the smoke bought on the run in the nearest stall.

Connoisseurs of the world's finest tobacco Treasurer allows them to enjoy the taste - spicy, fruity. The amount of harm to the body is reduced to zero.

George Karelias and Sons

Fans of pure tobacco and retro style will love the packaging of George Karelis' cigarettes. At 40 dollars. USA - this is how the creators evaluate their creation. Greek manufacturers do not skimp on high-quality tobacco and full imitation of the style of the 30s of the last century: then cigarette cases were in fashion, not ordinary cardboard boxes, and many of them resembled a work of art. Now cigarettes are more like a package of pencils than a stylish accessory, but not for this brand - they even open differently.

And excellent Greek tobacco, completely devoid of harmful impurities and chemical poisons, creates a unique pleasure from the retro-smoking process.

Mackintosh

Russian tobacco manufacturers are also trying to keep up with their Western counterparts - the Macintosh brand is famous for its stylish design in the form of a tin cigarette case. Tobacco - only high quality, pipe, originally from England. 400 rubles - the average price of a product in tobacco shops.

The strength of cigarettes is kept at an average level, but according to other features there are absolutely no complaints - Macintosh has long existed in the domestic market, and the company always has a demand for the production of goods. Cigarettes were especially famous in the early 2000s, when the smoking of elite varieties of tobacco gradually began to come into fashion. With the advent of hookahs, the fashion for tobacco gradually subsides, but heavy smokers still remain loyal to Macintosh.

Black & Gold

Fans of American products are familiar with Black and Gold cigarettes. A feature of these cigarettes is the presence of a charcoal filter, which cleans the tobacco from impurities during smoking. From this, connoisseurs of expensive tobacco feel only the pleasure of the product itself, and not the chemical effect of ordinary cigarettes.

The appearance of the brand resembles a woman's eyeliner - the black bottom and golden edging create a unique stylish design for the American brand. The average price of a product in tobacco stalls is about $ 5. USA. The company does not indulge Russian suppliers with frequent deliveries - deliveries of goods 2 times a year do not significantly affect the price of the product.

A stylish cigarette case complements the set of quality and a big name.

Senator

The name of the Russian luxury brand of tobacco products speaks for itself - the average price on the market is 220 rubles. They are distinguished by a special aroma created by soaking in oak barrels. A mix of three ultra-class tobaccos emphasizes the status of the "Senator".

As is customary among elite brands, the presence of a cigarette case is another exquisite feature of a tobacco product. The tin style was chosen for a reason: dark brown cigarettes go well with the exterior design.

The brand is famous for the cooperation of the Russian company Donskoy Tabak and Richmond Tobacco.

Captain "Black"

Captain Black has become widely known among smokers for its peculiarity: manufacturers have replaced the paper typical of tobacco products with tobacco sheets, reconstituted with softeners.

By replacing paper with tobacco, smoking Captain Black is different from enjoying other brands. In addition, for gourmet smokers, a palette of aromas has been thought out: chocolate, vanilla, menthol or tart sweetness.

Only the highest quality tobacco is used for the production of cigarettes.

The packaging does not differ in a special design - the emphasis of the creators is placed on the inner component of the pack, for which Russian fans of tobacco smoke are ready to shell out 200 rubles from their pockets.

Collection "Black"

The history of the origin of cigarettes begins off the coast of romantic England. Diplomats from Russia and officials from Britain founded a society in which they loved to enjoy a good cigar. The name of the collective was not given by chance - the "Russian Assembly" included the elite of the past, and the most influential of this world were supposed to keep a high bar in everything. Members were not forbidden to enjoy tobacco, but only a special brand - Sobranie.

Now cigarettes are considered to be the elite of Russian tobacco products. The price for them does not fall below 200 rubles per package. The design of the cigarettes is a refined black cigar case with gilding. Each of the cigarettes is edged in golden color. The tobacco is of the highest grade.

Parliament

Smoking Parlament in Russia is a sign of wealth and special status. The average price for this brand of cigarettes starts at 130 rubles.

Outwardly, the pack does not stand out among the elite competitors - the white and blue packaging design does not give off a special stylistic preference or unusual textures. And the Parliament does not release a cigarette case either.

But one feature puts this pack on a par with the producers of elite varieties - the presence of an air filter that thoroughly cleans the contents of the cigarette, killing all impurities during the puff process. Hence - the leadership in the lowest nicotine content among the representatives of the Russian tobacco market.

Rumor has it that initially Parlament did not differ in its exquisite taste and was coldly received by smokers. But with the advent of the filter, the price of the product immediately increased, and at the same time, lovers of high-quality tobacco smoking drew attention to the products.Now Parlament is the best-selling brand in Russia from the category of status cigarettes.

Dunhill

The Dunhill brand is one of the oldest in the world, its founder Alfred Dunhill divided the business into two parts: tobacco and luxury clothing. Both cigarettes and a line of accessories and fashion clothing are in the highest category. The cost of Dunhill's tobacco products in Russia does not fall below 100 rubles per pack.

The first pack of this brand appeared back in 1907. Now in Russia you can buy 8 varieties of Dunhill. The company is owned by British American Tobacco.

Dunhill belongs to the conservatives of the tobacco business - the recipe for the product has been unchanged for more than a century. However, the developers have made progress in the quality of tobacco: the taste of Dunhill has become softer, more calm.

Until 2010, Russia produced a double pack of cigarettes with a brown filter.

The brand cannot be attributed to the most popular domestic smokers, but fans of English tobacco speak with dignity about the products of this company.

 

More than a hundred different brands of tobacco products are distributed on the territory of Russia, each of which has its own specific qualities. Which cigarettes are the best is a question that often baffles a person. After all, everyone chooses cigarettes based only on their own taste. They come in a variety of shapes, tastes, and prices. In addition, the media often impose on choosing one or another brand.

Research in the field of tobacco smoking has revealed one interesting fact: not every popular product has the necessary quality and acceptable taste.

Today, a huge number of cigarettes of various brands, properties and cost are produced in the world.
