Lucky Strike (Unfiltered)

Considered the best-of-the-best for a reason. Excellent taste. After one Lucky Strike, you are truly satisfied, which makes them tough to chain-smoke. Pretty rough, even for us seasoned smokers, but well worth it. Unfiltered variants are all that I have been able to find locally, but I personally prefer them that way. Only real downfall is the high price tag (about $7 per pack where I live).

One of the better American Spirit cigarettes. I always smoked Blues (Full Flavor) and would get aggravated that after 7 minutes of smoking I wouldn't be done with them and by then didn't want to smoke anymore of it. Then I met a girl that smoked these, tried one and fell in love. They last as long as American Spirit blues, have great flavor and I've never met a single person who didn't like these. I don't have a problem smoking Luckies or any other harsh cigarette and American Spirit lights will forever be the only light cigarette I smoke regularly, and for good reason. They're fucking phenomenal.

The cigarette I started on (After buying a pack of lights by a mistake). I got sucked into the advertising saying they were high quality cigarettes even though they are consistently the cheapest brand around here in Florida from about 5 dollars a pack to 3.83 if you buy multiple packs and one time. They have a taste that is a love it or hate it kind of thing. Some people swear it tastes like an ashtray but some people say it tastes great. But they smoke incredibly easy and are a great starter cigarette or fall back cigarette for the price. They will never be your favorite cigarette, But they will be your wallets favorite.

Good side of alright/alright side of good. Less after taste, and the first thing I even had a pack of in less than a day. The only problem is if you do it for the nicotine: I have never had a nicotine buzz of these, even after a full pack. It might just be me though. Still, worth a try.

Meh. I have tried other Pall Mall colors in the past and found them to my liking. And as I have a cold I thought temporarially switching to the ultra lights would not be such a bad idea. Well these were just meh cigs. I knew they were ultra lights but I did not expect them to taste this light. It's like smoking air. So I must say I am disappointed, if you ask me there are much better choices for about the same price.

For cheap Canadian smokes, these are actually pretty good. Not as good as say.. Canadian Classic Silver, but still good for the price. I hate Canadian smoke prices.. 10.50$ for a 25 pack. Good amount of nicotine. I used to be able to get a nicotine buzz off these even when nothing else would get me there. I miss those days. :(

Decent smoke. The tobacco is packed and the cigarette lasts forever, however it has little taste and there's nothing particularly exciting about the smoke. Nicotine levels aren't that much, I didn't get a buzz off these when I first started to smoke. Prices are similar to any other cigarette brand in New Zealand at $13/pack NZD.

Nice cigarette to smoke. Has a good flavour and doesn't burn too fast. Does have issues with the filter getting soft (similar to Pall Malls). The smoke can smell like cannabis smoke to non-smokers (and even though I know better when I get a whiff of it I can get excited). Price is regular at $13/pack NZD.

Kentucky's Best (Unfiltered)

Very cheap cigarette (at about $3.25 where I live), but not bad at all. If you live in an area where they're sold (I'm guessing Kentucky, southern Ohio, and maybe southern Indiana), they are a nice fall-back cig. Unfiltered are about 25 cents more expensive then their filtered counterpart. However, the lack of a filter makes all the difference in the world. Most unfiltered varieties (take Pall Mall for example) are close to 2x the cost of their filtered varieties, so this is a welcomed difference. Fairly smooth, but not very robust, flavor. Not very harsh and not much of a chemical taste, but still faintly present. Pretty boring cigarette, but for $3/pack, how much can you really expect? Good if you feel like being cheap, but with alright quality.

By far Camel's best cigarette. They have last a good while at 3-5 minutes (like any normal smoke should), and its strong smoke gives a powerful buzz to non-smokers. The taste is dark like most Camels, and the aftertaste is pleasant (meaning it's not disgusting). For such a strong cigarette, the lingering smell isn't as strong as other cigarettes such as Marlboros. Prices are around $5.50 a pack in Northern Virginia.

What I smoke when I have no god damned money. Better in my opinion than Pall Mall's or other similarly cheap cigarettes (7.25 in NY state, which, unfortunately, means cheap). Tastes a bit less harsh but is by no means comparable to any decent brand. Kind of a little... woody taste? Also has filters which are short as fuck which is nice because you get a bit more nicotine but sucks because that means more tar/throat hurts after chainsmoking 2 or 3, and they're annoying to hold if you have bigger hands.
