You can call smoking a bad habit, but this does not make the number of smokers less on the streets. And if you take into account the variety of cigarettes, it becomes clear that smokers have little reaction to advertising and remain faithful to their bad habit.
For example, Winston (cigarettes) have been produced for a long time, and during this time the range of flavors has grown greatly. You can choose a product according to your wishes. Why not allow yourself a little harm under such conditions?
Promoted Brand
Statistics say that in Russia, the most popular brand is just Winston. Cigarettes produced by this company beat all sales records. The brand name is a historical reference to the town of Winston-Salem, which is located in North Carolina. This is a historic tobacco leaf processing center. In 1954, Winston became the first manufacturer to produce filter cigarettes in mass production. Throughout the entire existence of the brand, Winston received recognition as the best cigarette brand in 1956, and the company's products were named the best-selling in the USA in 1965. The brand in the United States has long remained a leader in sales. And in the 1970s, popularity spread beyond the borders of the country.
New round of development
As time passed, in 1992 thin Winston cigarettes came to Russia. And in 1998, the assets of Japan Tobacco and RJ Reynolds Tobacco were merged, on the basis of which JTI was formed.
This gave a new impetus to the conquest of the world market. In 2007, a new line of super-thin cigarettes appeared, offering smokers pamper themselves.
For the powerful
A year later, Winston Premier cigarettes were launched specifically for the premium market segment. The brand had filter cigarettes, light, super light. Since 2010, the production of Winston XS cigarettes began, and in 2012 - Winston XStyle.
Grade classification
For the foodie, diversity is most important, so he chooses Winston cigarettes. Species will satisfy every taste, but if the smoker is very young, it is better to still opt for lighter cigarettes with a lower tar and nicotine content. Winston White boasts the most modest resin content in milligrams (1). Nicotine is also the very minimum - 0.1 mg.
The Super Slims White and XSence White grades are characterized by the same parameters. These cigarettes are the lightest, respectively, less harmful, although in any case, smoking is not a good habit. True attachment begins to develop when a deep draft of smoke begins and the accumulated nicotine urgently requires supplementation. Then the choice is made in favor of more serious varieties.
In compact form
The Winston brand produces cigarettes for people who value convenience and quality. Among the potential target audience are men. This halo of masculinity, reliability and strength gives the total amount of image messages, quality and variety of choice. Most men now prefer Winston Compact, a Slims cigarette. The resin and nicotine content are impressive, 6 mg and 0.5 mg, respectively.
On the shelves you can find these cigarettes under the names Winston Blue and XSence Blue. In a pack of 20 filter cigarettes. The taste is strong and even heady. At the turn of 2010 and 2011, Winston cigarettes from a limited edition in gray, blue and black packs appeared on sale, opening to the side. And in 2013, images of the dangers of tobacco began to be printed on packs. So the convenience of the pack remained in the physical plane, but left - in the moral.
By the way, Winston One can compete with "compact" cigarettes in the fortress, but these are still relatively moderate varieties, especially if you put them in a row with Winston Filters. Here are 12 mg of tar and 0.9 nicotine.
Interest for
At different times, Winston cigarettes were at the peak of popularity. Species and their tastes changed, but the quality remained unchanged. Probably, this approach also determines the similarity of the advertising slogans of the company. “True quality”, “Taste for the present”, “Full freedom” and finally the most pathos “Trust your taste”. All these slogans in one way or another characterize the attitude of customers to cigarettes. But do the customers themselves agree with this?
Mostly, people say that the new Winston cigarettes remain affordable and have a relatively pleasant taste. People who do not smoke do not understand this, but in a cigarette one can distinguish some astringency and softness of taste. Winston remains a more democratic and high-quality brand.
Many people like the fact that here they take money not so much for the name as for the work. Manufacturers can sincerely rejoice, because Winston cigarettes get the best reviews. Of course, the habit remains detrimental, but it is more pleasant to "poison" with taste. It is not surprising that there are antagonists who believe that Winston has a bitter and nasty taste, and they contain
tobacco dust, not tobacco.
What are the criteria for choosing cigarettes?
First of all, it must be understood that there are no harmless cigarettes. Tobacco actually quietly does its dirty deed, destroys tooth enamel, provokes tooth decay, spoils the lungs. “Thanks” to him, overall health worsens, complexion deteriorates, and there may be a risk of miscarriage in pregnant women. In addition, cigarettes strongly affect the unborn child, making him weak and amorphous. But if all these arguments do not work, you intend to smoke anyway, then let's find out how to choose "your" cigarettes anyway?
First answer, how long have you been smoking? And how do you do it? Are you intercepting a thin menthol cigarette when gathering with friends? Or puff in every break, not denying yourself this dubious pleasure even when the weather is bad?
Or do you really think smoking is a way to relax? Any of these options involves a certain type of cigarette. In particular, if you smoke exclusively in emergency situations, support the company or calm your nerves, then opt for light cigarettes. Thin Winston cigarettes, which have a rather delicate taste and low tar and nicotine content, can be recommended to ladies.
What do the doctor's say?
Medical professionals, however, claim that tobacco contains specific nitrosamines, which are also carcinogens and settle in the lungs. It turns out a terrible picture when, after changing strong cigarettes to light, the smoker simply begins to increase the dose of cigarettes smoked and therefore sharply increases the level of carcinogens. Of course, tobacco manufacturers are only at hand.
It is comforting that the Winston brand produces cigarettes of a higher quality, if we compare them with products of domestic manufacturers. They are softer and contain less tar and nicotine. The statistics only make Winston manufacturers happy, because they are chosen by 12.4% of Russians. Often these are long-time fans of the brand, but sometimes an audience is attracted by various kinds of advertising.
Now you can pamper your taste buds even while smoking, so gourmets choose flavored tobacco, such as menthol. At the same time, there is no menthol in the tobacco itself, but it impregnates paper and a cigarette filter. Of course, the smoking process becomes more enjoyable, but their harm does not decrease at all, because the effect of anesthesia is created, so the smoker does not realize the whole effect. Therefore, he wants to smoke more often and is gradually getting more and more involved in the process. And if you still buy cigarettes with the taste of strawberries, raspberries or a fresh apple? Then smoking will be equated with pleasure at all.
Even now, you can find girls replacing food with smoking. There is such a diet that causes horror among nutritionists around the world. Therefore, in the United States such tobacco products were banned, taking care of the population. In Russia, you can still find such products, but they are becoming less and less. If you smoke, then do not aggravate the situation even more, choose high-quality tobacco and try to limit yourself to the minimum dose. Then addiction will remain just your little flaw.
