Advantages: Full, Smooth taste

Disadvantages: The obvious risks to your health and wallet

Lambert & Butler cigarettes are very popular in my home town, infact nearly every smoker in my circle of friends buys them and me too!
My first experience of a 'Lambert' king size came at the age of 14 or 15. Not an advisable thing to ever start smoking and I regret it to this day as it has become a very expensive addiction these day's. A twenty pack of these particular cigarettes can often come to a much as £5.50 in some outlets, and ten can cost around £2.60.
Not to mention the habit's obvious health risks, on the Lambert box (and the rest of them) you are constantly reminded of the serious risks to your health in the form of huge white banners, on the front and back. Taking up most of the boxes room for design.
The overall design of the packaging is quite eyecatching and appealing on the shiny silver limited edition box. The gleem of the shine almost reflects like a rainbow from a glass prism.
The logo on the lid of the box is just simply a L&B, with king size written underneath in its own seperate box.
A black and blue sasche runs through the middle of the box displaying the words lambert & butler in white upper case text.
On the back, squashed inbetween the UK duty paid sign and the smoking health risk are the words 'premier edition' with the companies claim of being '10 years as the UK's number 1 brand' written underneath, both in bold upper case text.
In a small white box along the right handside of the box (next to the barcode), you will find information on the content of the cigarettes. This particular incarnation of Lambert and Butler brand contains:

10 mg Tar
0.9 mg Nicotine
10 mg Carbon Monoxide

Tar and carbon monoxide are the two most harmful components of a cigarette, without contemplating all of the other 'unknown substances' that may also be included which, overtime will damage your lungs and may even lead to cancer. Nicotine is the 'addictive' element of the cigarette.

Smoking is an addiction I am not personally proud of,but having started out with this brand then straying to others, I have always come back. Lambert's have a depth of taste like no other I have sampled.
With some other cigarettes, the filter ends can tend to be a little to rigid. Which lead's to not being able to get a hefty enough drag of it, not these though. Lambert and Butler filters and the best I have tried.
When I'm out of town and I produce a box of these from my pockets, it can be met with mixed opinion when offering them around, many people tend to think that Lambert's are harsh cigarettes, but I am inclined to disagree. I find the whole experience of smoking one of these quite smooth and relaxing, not harsh at all. Maybe in previous years these cigarettes may have developed a bad reputation for their rough style, but certainly not now.

Im not one to condone smoking, but if your already hooked and looking for a new brand, give these little fella's a try. You might be pleasantly surprised.

Summary: a nice smoke
