#basic cigarettes

Basic Menthol King:

Basic is exactly what the manufacturer has done to this plain very under designed packaging.  The white soft pack brand has green lettering and the generic name “Basic”.

Not getting my hopes up with this generic brand I begin to light and smoke what seemed like loosely rolled cigarette.  The cigarette didn’t want to light very well and once I got it burning, the second hand smoke was barreling off the ash and seemed like it was all wasting into the air.  The menthol was not good.  I could barely taste it.  The tobacco itself had a strange odor and left a bad taste in my mouth.

I know a few people that really like the Basic brands, but for a generic, I have found others better tasting and satisfying.
