Favourite CANADIAN cigarettes?

I usually get Belmonts, Peter Jackson Menthols or Player's. Never king size, for some reason regular just tastes better to me. When they use to sell the Natural American Spirit cigarettes back in around 2008-2009 I'd get the yellow packs. I wish they sold American spirit menthols in Canada, those were the nicest tasting cigarettes I've had.
 
Belmont's

Or

Canadians

Does anyone know why Canadian cigs seem to taste and be smoother than other cigs across the globe ?

I've had expensive UK and US cigs and they r still shite =/
 
It all depends on preference I guess. They make some here that taste like ass, and others are great (well, were. I think they all suck ever since they started that FSC shit 4 or 5 years ago). I personally have never had a foreign cig that I enjoyed so who knows really. It's all about what types and blends of tobaccos they use (and what extra chemicals).
 
The few times I was in Montreal I didn't think that the cigs were much different though the giant warnings on the box are kind of creepy.

Do they still do that? Recky brings up a good point too with the FSC or fire safe cigs. Do you guys have those too? They definitely changed American smokes for the worse when they did that. For those that don't know FSC smoke with go out if you don't take a drag in like 10 seconds or something. I don't even want to know how they did that.
 
They use a thicker paper with ribs on the inside that are harder to burn, it has several "zones" if you will that are more likely to go out when it's burning through one of those sections. They also coat the tobacco with some form of slightly heat resistant chemical so if you're not keeping it cherried they won't just smoulder and stay lit.

Also I remember those crazy cancer warnings on the cigs in montreal, took up the whole top flap of the box. Every time I took them out to have one of those dis-satisfying french cigarettes I saw the picture and thought "so that's what my lungs are gonna look like." **Lights cigarette anyway**


EDIT: Just thought this was interesting- From Wikipedia

Some consumers in the United States claim they have found a noticeable difference in the taste of FSC cigarettes from non-FSC cigarettes, comparing it to a copper or metallic taste. Other symptoms reported include an itchy rash, (allergic reaction), severe headache, vomiting, diarrhea, mouth sores, and nose bleeds. Many of these symptoms are also closely associated with carbon monoxide (CO) toxicity. When organic matter is burned with insufficient oxygen, carbon monoxide (CO) is produced. FSC cigarettes are designed to self-extinguish by reducing the oxygen supply to the burning tobacco. The health risks associated with increased long-term (CO) exposure range from mild to severe, and are well documented. Currently there are no studies linking FSC cigarettes to increased (CO) levels. There has been a rise in people rolling their own cigarettes instead of continuing to smoke FSC and there have also been petitions regarding FSC. One current petition has been signed by over 27,000 people that attest to the negatives of FSC cigarettes.

Currently there are no findings published on the long term health effects on humans of inhaling EVA co-polymers. Results of tests conducted on rodents show the risks associated with 'Ethylene Vinyl Acetate copolymer emulsion based adhesive' include triggering the cellular proliferation necessary for tumor development.[4]

They do still do that. In fact, at the end of last year a law was passed making them bigger and more graphic. They now take up 75% of the outer packaging. Here's a link to a list of the new labels: Health Canada They've definitely gotten creepier.
 
Ya you were right they are way creeper. I'm not sure that the oral cancer pix is entirely necessary. Tracheotomy man and his porn stache are a welcome addition though.

fuckin died when i heard this. my pack of macs i finished today featured this guy; your description tapped the image from my memory. but i agree oral cancer, and the young lady with a million things wrong with her face at once could take a hike.
 
So, I pay 4$ and some change for Marlboro Light's...Ten bucks a pack, I'd have to quit. If you wanted to roll your own, that's getting popular here. You can get some generic brands for 3$, but I just can't smoke them.

I seen 10 and some change....I paid 5$ back years ago in NYC and DC and thought I was getting fucking had (This has been over ten years ago though).

BELMONT+CIGS.jpg



John Players are my brand, but I enjoy Belmonts. John Player's are really good for cheap smokes.
 
Well i mostly smoke BB gold package and blue which are reserve smokes. A good smoke for me would be Next blue or Belmont
 
I always liked du maurier , I probably spelled that wrong. Taxes are going up 2 dollars in a few months those cig smugglers are going to be happy
 
Canadian classics regular
Belmonts
Mcdonalds blue, or red if you like a heavy cig
Export A
Benson and Hedges black
Next, blue or gold (decent for a cheap pack)
De Maurier, red or blue (nice filters as well)
 
I like the Canadian Camels, both yellow and blue. American feel with Canadian taste and smoothness
 
A pack of Export A just as an example in Canada is around $14
This country is ran by idiots!
