I've got a couple of vintage packs of Picayunes, for a photo shoot, though I'll never light 'em up, since I don't want a lung transplant.

You can hear the carcinogens rattling around the inside of the pack.

The person who dreamed up Extra Mild must have had a dark sense of humor.

Have you ever had a cig by the name of Black Death. Mild as hell, but half way though the first one you cant help but cough and cough and cough. Taste, yet deadly

HOLY CRAP! I was almost positive that I was insane for not being able to find a single person who had heard of or tried Black Death cigarettes. Do you have any idea if they are still available? Last time I saw them was about 4 or 5 years ago, but I did see some Black Death cigarette papers in a tobacco shop a few months back. I asked the guy working if he had any idea about the cigarettes and he didn't.
They are still Around, just real hard to find, when ever I see them I buy them just because I find it perfect for a cig to be called black death. Nothing beats a company that is Honest about their product

Did you see the ban that's coming in Australia? Cig packs will not be allowed to have any branding or design. They'll be a standard government white package with huge warnings on them and then the brand in tiny letters.Ah, the days of simple yet beautiful packaging.

not to mention a 25% tax increase so a single pack will cost $15- $18. The plain pack thing will probably get shafted I think as the tobacco companies are already claiming restriction of identity or some such thing. Australia has an awesome government they work on weekends at the circus you should see how many of these clowns fit in a small car.

Because of this post, I tried the American Spirit Perique blend and found them quite enjoyable. Certainly not the same sort of Perique hit you'd find in an English style pipe tobacco, but a nice fullness added over the usual cigarette.
Even my father, who smokes Camel straights, declared them quite nice, despite the filters.
Maybe they'll try marketing something with Latakia?
PS: I was pleasantly surprised that these did not come at a premium price over regular American Spirit cigarettes.

A very nice smoke for a non heavy smoker like myself as i only have a maximum of 5 a day more likely to be 3 though.

Speaking of which, I obtained some really great perique tobacco and made some delectible cocktail bitters with it. I'm still tweaking the recipe to minimize the astringent effect you feel in the throat when dealing with tobacco, but it's almost perfect now.Certainly not the same sort of Perique hit you'd find in an English style pipe tobacco,
