Even KOOL Cigarettes is into Mardi Gras! ;-)

I would have never thought of this...but a 'slam-dunk' for the Marketing Dept.



PS:

BTW, if I remember correctly, I think I started out smoking cigarettes (in some neighbors garage), at least 50yrs ago

and my brand of choice then was Kool Non-Filter Cigarettes.

Back then, those cigarettes were like M80 Firecrackers...very easy to inhale (no resistance because of no filter), strong, bold, smooth menthol taste.

Just the thing to keep one from falling asleep (or staying out too late playing hockey), in the snows and winters of the Great Lakes States.
Yeah right...like my great-grandmothers Cheshire Cat.

In the late 1970's, I switched to Kool Filter King (in hard pack box), Cigarettes (I also smoke Cigars and Havana Ovals cigarillos [my tobacco consumption...at least 1/2 pack and at least a cigar a day], when I can find them...they work great when time is
of the essence).

"There's nothing quite like tobacco...it soothes the soul". CBJ

However, as a cigarette smoker...I do have a natural tendency to inhale a tiny 'sip' of a cigar at the 'tail end of the draw', but not with every puff mind you.

Yep...I started on KOOL filter kings.

Lol me too. Now they want to ban all menthols in my state.

KOOL was my dad’s cigarette brand when he was smoking when I was a kid.

...its just the plastic film (cellophane), covering that's new w/ KOOL...nothing special besides that though...
box still the same. .

Unopened KOOL Mardi Gras (Limited Edition), Smokes

I got a idea.

I'll put this pack 'away' in my humidor to smoke when it's 'close to my time'... maybe by then they'll possibly be 'infused' w/ Cuban cigar aromas too.
