My go-to common man cigarette. What is there NOT to love about Luckies... other than being not the same years ago before being bought out and basically a rehash of Newport Reds, if we are talking unfiltered that's a whole different story. But it has been so long since I smoked an unfiltered Lucky Strike so I cannot say much on it. But as for the filtered Reds Full Flavored, if it's more brand loyalty and recognition as a cigarette brand I will not lie on thar front, Lucky Strike has always been the more "American" representative cigarette brand for me. Ultimately "baseball" as a cigarette, I can talk all day of that famous red whole circle surrounded by gold ring and black text, all over a slightly dirty white background design all day, but the cigarette itself, its by no means a high quality cigarette in respect to higher budget common man cigarettes like American Spirit, or truly luxury cigarettes such as State Express or Dunhill, its rough, yet sweet and a bit of a sour taste, not as sweet as say like Parliaments or Peace. But, there is important distinction, it is defined by its bittersweet flavor, MY cigarette to die on a hill on. If anything I have to represent chain smoking as a sacrificial lamb it has to be Lucky Strike, "It's toasted." motherfucker.
