Tor me, # abig # issuein smoking is taste!

“Low tar is one thing, btit taste is still a big issue. “Ever since the stories started about high tar, I started

looking for a

low-tar cigarette

that was high in taste. “Easier said than done. “I tried a lot of low tars. And what they were really low in was taste. Then I tried Vantage. “Vantage has all the taste of the cigarette I used to smoke, with

about half the tar.

“With my old high tar brand I always smoked for taste. Now with low-tar Vantage, I still do!’
