SHOP MENTHOL CIGARETTE ALTERNATIVES 2024
Menthol Cigarettes were banned in the UK on the 20 May 2020. Great news, there are some great menthol cigarette alternatives available to shop at Smoke-King.
Introducing: L&B - Blue Bright Air Filter
The L&B Blue Bright Air Filter combines a recess in the filter tip with a firmer filter structure, which should provide the impression of a smoother, better quality smoking experience, according to research by Imperial.
Why the Hole in the Filter Tip?
We tried the Swan Crushball Menthol Filter Tips with this new L&B cigarette; the twist could be a match made in heaven for menthol cigarette lovers. It may not be perfectly flush but remember you do need something to hold on to should you wish to remove the Crushball from your cigarette.
Add Menthol or Peppermint Filter Tips
Swan Crushball Tips are available in Menthol and Peppermint to create a smoke similar to menthol cigarettes.
