Advantages: Cheap and usually you get a pack of papers too

Disadvantages: Very dry and very Harsh

Amber leaf is one of the cheapest tobaccos out there in most local newsagents and it shows. Normally for around £3 you get 12.5g pack of tobacco and a pack of Amber Leaf's own brand Cigarette papers.

When i was a broke student i used to smoke Amber leaf because back then you could get the 12.5g and 50 cigarette papers for £2.29 and you cannot really argue with that. What you can argue with however is the taste.

It is a very dry tobacco which causes 2 major problems, 1. Because it is so dry once rolled the tobacco burns very quickly and after smoking one roll-up you dont feel altogether too satisfied. 2. Because of its Dryness it tends to become very fine and grainy so you lose half of the tobacco when your coming to the end of a pack just trying to get it into the paper.

The papers you get with some of the packs are very gummy and you can taste that in the cigarette.

Its not all bad though, for value for money this can not be beaten and really when your a broke student trying to fed a habit then i would recommend it. But once you can afford it im sure like me you will ditch it for the many better products out there

Summary: Great if your totally skint
