Handmade Cigarettes in general Reviews

During the recession, most of us have made cut backs here and there and one of my cut backs was to change from my 'beloved' Lambert and Butlers to roll-ups. My dad has actually smoked roll-ups for as long as I remember and will very rarely smoke 'proper' cigerettes, he sit's there and rolls up around 50-70 a time and does it in aboout 5/10 ...  Read the complete review

I used to smoke straights until 1. I became broke and 2. found out how much better they are in most every way. From the relatively cheap Richmond Super Kings to the cheapest Amber leaf and cutters choice... So I started buying amber leaf which as w whole is the cheapest as it comes with Rizal. However, one you actually smoke it you do ...  Read the complete review

The roll-ups vs branded debate has been raging amongst the smoking populace for years ,and to be honest I have no idea which is better. I personally prefer to sit on the fence and alternate between the two, as they both have their benefits and drawbacks. I guess it just depends upon your personal preferences.

I have smoked now for around five years and the majority of those cigarettes have been 'tailor-made'. I have rolled my own ciggies but only when I have been strapped for cash and couldn't afford 'tailor-made' fags. I can roll quite well and they smoke okay but I really wouldn't recommend roll-ups as a convinient way to smoke. Yes they are cheaper ...  Read the complete review

Making your own cigarettes may take practise, but its so much cheaper than buying ready made cigarettes and with less added chemicals, slightly better for you. Makes you feel better about about your addiction. :D

Before I go into the in's and out's of hand rolling, I am well aware of the harms of smoking, it's consequences, but we are all going to die so we might as well do it being happy. I would have died happy had I not smoked, but I've been smoking for nearly 40 years, I enjoy it so bugger the consequences. For a starting price of around ...  Read the complete review

Far be it from me to actually advocate any type of cigarette but the simple truth is that hand rolled fags are a lot cheaper than readymades, a lot (apparently) better for you as they have less of the "keep the fag alight" chemicals and can make you look like Clint Eastwood in his cowboy films if you use a liquorice rizla which can only ...  Read the complete review

With a packet of cigarettes costing well over £4 a for a packet of 20,smoking is a very expensive habit. If like I do you smoke because you enjoy it the cheapest option apart from giving up is to roll your own cigarettes. A 40g packet of golden virginia at from a supermarket is,at the time of writing,£9.01. Depending on how meaty ...  Read the complete review

There’s nothing quite like rolling it between your fingers, licking the underside and pinching the tip….of a finely crafted, handmade and cherished roll-up! Ever since my student days I have been a roll-up fanatic. Yes, mainly because I have never really been able to justify to my pocket forking out for cigarettes that mainly ...  Read the complete review

As a smoker, albeit of 'only' five years, I've tried many different brands of cigarette from all around the globe, and I've come to the conclusion that hand-rolling your own cigarettes is the only option in the UK. Here's why; 1.) Cost. Whilst I pay my way like anyone else, I highly object to being ...  Read the complete review

There is a new type of cigarette around, or at least there would be if I could make them exist! I guess you are a bit puzzled so I had better explain. ~~~What is Concept? It's a whole new recycled old idea, whereby you can purchase a complete kit to make your own cigarettes, for half the price of ready made, which (in ...  Read the complete review
