these were cool! short and skinny, not too mentholy, felt good in terms of nicotine amount regardless of size! also really pretty.

Definitely impressed, these cigarettes are tiny, but burn longer than most regular-length cigarettes, and are the strongest (base) menthols I’ve had. Not bad.

Not bad, but not my favorite. First of all, they are TINY – slim and short. Then there’s the flavor – the wrapper has a very strong tobacco taste that’s more like a machine made cigar. The menthol flavor is nice, but it can’t really compete with the wrapper taste. They’re definitely different from what I expected.

Had a nice balance of menthol with a very smooth tobacco smoke. Menthol is not overpowering, balance is just right.
