Although this type of cigarettes is intended for people with a high social status, anyone can afford them - the price range is quite wide. We present to you top 10 most expensive cigarettes in russia.

10. Dunhill – 100 rub.

DunhillThe key event in the history of these cigarettes was the First World War. Taking advantage of the active propaganda of tobacco smoking at the front, Alfred Dunhill, who had previously opened a small tobacco shop in London, began sending whole blocks of cigarettes to the front. Thus, the rumor about the unique strong taste of premium tobacco reached the royal palace, and then flew around the world.

The price of Dunhill cigarettes is determined by many factors, from the soft noble taste achieved through a special technology of cutting tobacco, to the unique stylish packaging.

9. Parliament – 200 rub.

ParliamentProbably one of the most famous tobacco brands in the world, it is safe to say that throughout its history, Philip Morris cigarettes have had a touch of elitism.

In addition to the subtle and noble taste of tobacco, the cost of Parliament also determines the special air filter, which not only allows you to keep your teeth white, but also prevents the intoxication of the lungs with harmful components.

8. Sobranie Black – 220-230 rub.

Sobranie Black Brazilian tobacco without impurities and unnecessary aromatic additives gives the cigarettes a pure and refined taste. They are also equipped with a carbon filter, the main task of which is to take care of the consumer's lungs. The design of Sobranie Black is very conservative and strict: a black pack always looks respectable.

In Russia, this tobacco brand is not particularly popular among the general population. The whole point is that Russian Sobranie is qualitatively different in taste characteristics from foreign ones - therefore, it turns out that the consumer overpays only for the brand.

7. Captain Black – 250 rub.

Captain Black "Black Captain" has won the hearts of many smokers due to its high quality and wide variety of flavors. The sweet and bright taste of cigarettes is recognizable all over the world and has long been loved by many.

Their high cost is explained by the uniqueness of the shell - the smoking mixture is wrapped in a reconstituted tobacco leaf, and the tobacco itself for these cigarettes is selected from special varieties. Captain Black is considered one of the strongest cigarettes - they contain 14 mg of tar and 1.2 mg of nicotine.

6. Senator Private Blend – 250 rub.

The main "feature" of these expensive cigarettes is aged tobacco: a special smoking mixture of Virginia, Burley and Oriental varieties is placed in oak barrels and aged there for some time. Nevertheless, Senator cigarettes are classified as medium-strength tobacco products - they contain only 0.5 mg of nicotine. The unique technology of tobacco preparation achieves that famous specific taste of Senator.

5. Black & Gold – 385 rub.

Black & GoldSimply "cool cigarettes". That's what the manufacturer Nat Sherman said about this brand. At first glance, it may seem that they are incredibly reminiscent of Sobranie Black Russian: the same exquisite design - a gold filter and black paper, stylish packaging, high-quality tobacco.

However, "black gold" has its own unique characteristics: their filter is entirely made of charcoal, which allows the consumer to be protected from toxic substances. Moreover, these cigarettes are initially designed for an extremely narrow circle of "smokers", which determines the high price.
