Stale Cigarettes


I smoke Benson & hedges I buy them from a res in idaho. Anyhow sometimes the shop I buy them from is out and I have to a look for different shop .I usually get cartons of stale cigarettes. It pisses me off I have cartons of cigs that I have thrown away because they are stale. Anybody else experience this with there cigarettes? Or am I too finicky? I never heard of anyone else I know that knows the taste difference from fresh and stale cigs but also when there stale seems to be if you have a soft pack if you squeeze it and it feels like crackers crunching there stale. Too me stale cigs taste terrible.

Welcome to the forum bennett!!!

  I quit dealing with that problem when I started rolling my own cigs. I find the baccy tastes better and I can roll a carton for about 11 bucks

howdy Bennett, welcome to GPSF.
Yep....RYO is the way to go. My bride smokes cigs and can roll 2 1/2 cartons for the price of 1 carton of commercial cigs.....and she can buy blends.....after some experimenting,she has found two flavors that she really likes.

Bennett, welcome to GPSF.

Tom and Ted provided a great solution. Or..you could quit cigs and take up the pipe.

Actually the pipe is the perfect solution to your problem. Great smoking pleasure, great flavor......what more could a feller ask for?

Re: Stale Cigarettes


I hate stale cigarettes. We get our cigarettes from www.onesmoke.com They're always fresh. We also normally get enough with each shipment to last a month. And keep excess in a dry place where they're guaranteed to stay fresh.
