Lucky Strike Filter

Ah... Lucky Strike, affectionately known as "luckies". These little sticks of joy come in several formats, but only two seem particularly prominent in the UK: Lucky Strike Red (Tar 10mg, Nicotine 0.8mg) - These are the original full strength filters and my preferred kind of luckies. Lucky Strike Silver (Tar 7mg, Nicotine 0.6mg) - Lights, for those of you who live by the motto "less (carcinogens) is more". These cigarettes became my brand of choice ever since I was first drawn towards buying a pack based on nothing more than their... er... strike-ing (sorry, that was awful) design. I've tried various different brands now and ...  Read the complete review

For the many years I was a student, sneakily puffing away on an illicit cigarette, my many cohorts and I dreamed of the Luckies. These were an extravagance only the richest and the people who lived in London could afford. Since moving to London Lucky's have been my brand of choice when I'm feeling flush. They're toasted doncha know? The Packaging The Lucky Strike packaging never ceases to amaze me. Not only is it iconic in it's red, white and black but they were content with being just a simple 20-pack box. Their boxes are double compartments, with an ingenious trick where you open one side for on information, close, shake (You HAVE to ...  Read the complete review

On a Saturday night, Istanbul is a fine, fine city in which to freewheel, to go a little crazy, to eat, drink, and smoke. And the only cigarette to smoke, if it's freewheeling you're after, is Lucky Strike. It's because of Istanbul that I wouldn't smoke any other cigarette. Why? Because in that city, cigarettes are dirt cheap. But they're even cheaper if you buy them from the geezers who line Istiklal Cadessi, the party street in the neighbourhood known as Taksim. They sell them out of suitcases at knock-off prices because they get them cheap from the sailors passing up the Bosphorous. The thing is, that somedays they get a load of Marlboro, ...  Read the complete review

I occasionally smoke these when I feel like a change or when i'm feeling flashy. The box is almost guaranteed to intrigue any regular smoker, with lots of text to read and contemplate when you?re waiting for the bus or your lift. Also they have a nice simple but colourful and striking logo. You almost feel like you're a show off when you plonk a 20 deck of these down infront of your work colleagues or drinking pals. This isn't always a bad thing thought i suppose. A nice little crowd pleaser assuming you are with other smokers. I agree with the other opinions on this brand. The taste to me is strong but not too heavy and the smoke ...  Read the complete review

I started smoking four years ago, and I decided to try as many brands as possible in order to decide which one I was going to get permanently. I tried a lot of brands and I came down to three or four brands that I really found to agree with my tastebuds. Lucky Strike filter cigarettes are a true american legend since they have been around since the previous century and it was Lucky Strikes (instead of Marlboro) that escorted the american soldiers during the two world wars. They started with non filter cigarettes (which are still on sale, and are the best non filter cigarettes you can get) and now they have launched their "lights" series. ...  Read the complete review
