New Marlboro Special Blend
After quite a long dry spell, we're starting to see new styles introduced. I haven't seen them in my area yet, but I've read reports on the internet that they are making their way into peoples hands. Details are sketchy right now, but I did find some evidence that 100's may also be in the mix. Give them a try and let us know what you think.
I've also heard that we may see new Camel Crush styles this spring. I'll keep you posted.
UPDATE: Just over the Holiday weekend, the 100's versions of both finally made it to my area, so I gave them a try. Spending a day with these cigarettes really reminded me how much I love smoking - not because I liked them, but because I didn't. Sure, they both contain nicotine, but neither provided me any pleasure. Taste and how the smoke feels as it is inhaled and exhaled are some of the most important qualities of a good cigarette. I like Marlboro Lights, but I didn't like the Special Blend Gold Pack. I like Marlboro Reds, but didn't like the Special Blend Red Pack, but then again, I don't like Marlboro Mediums either. Taste is subjective, so if you like'em, smoke 'em.

special blend
we have them in iowa, and yes there are 100's.
Marlboro Special Blend
I normally smoke Marlboro Medium. Today my smoke shop was out. The Special Blend paint job was pretty close to the mediums so I tried a pack. They taste the same or very close. They have a smoother burn with less flare-ups than a Medium, maybe less FSC. I did notice they burn a little quicker. I saw them today for the first time in Ann Arbor Mi.
im tired of this
fsc is not a chemical, it means fire safe cigarette. they make them fire safe by actually taking a chemical out of the cigarette paper. this is the chemical that would make the cigarette smoke faster and keep burning even if someone wasnt puffing on it. if a cigarette has fsc on the package that means there is non of the burning chemical. remember its how you pack it that makes it burn faster or slower
Short time smokers oppinon
I've only smoked for a short while. I started on camel crush's then to camel lights/ marlboro reds. but these marlboro special blends (which seem to taste like no. 27's) seem to be my new kick. In fact... I've only smoked for a year and a half and now I'm up to almost a pack a day with no problem and cut down on other nicotine sources (ie. snuff).
comment
the special blends are simple. the regular special blends in the red box are a mix between the reds and mediums. the gold box is a mix between mediums and lights
the special blend gold taste
the special blend gold taste just like a marlboro light. and they are usually a dollar cheaper with the "new" promo
i thought they had a lil
i thought they had a lil more flavor and kick in em.
Anybody seen these Marlboro Gold Touch cigarettes
I just saw somebody that brought them back from a trip. As I understood it is the latest creation of Marlboro cigarettes in Europe. Small black slim. Looks like on the image http://www.your-cigs.com/marlboro.html
Not bad, but not that good either
I started with Marlboro Reds as my first pack of cigarettes. Low on cash one day, I bought a pack of Special Blend Reds since they were cheaper. They are just like a regular Red, just not as strong as I was expecting. I found that they are much better when lit with a match rather than a lighter. I only smoke these when I don't have enought for a pack of Reds.
special blends after taste
I am really not to fond of the special blends. Even though regular Marlboro lights dont taste so great, the special blends seems to leave a weird after taste. worse than regular Marlboros.
'boro's Special Blend
I had a weird aftertaste also and a stuffiness in my throat that I don't usually get with my Basic Lights. I used to smoke reds but switched to Basic Lights- just as strong but used to be cheaper. I'm wary of the Special Blends- what's so special about them? Maybe some weird chemical?
special blend gold
I had stopped smoking marlboro lights and started rolling my own cigs because I was experiencing heart palpitations when I smoked reg. marlboro lights. The palpitations stopped. I tried special blend golds because a friend told me they did not have the additives of marlboro lights. The special blend golds do not give me heart palpitations. I had run out and had to buy a pack of marlboro lights today and after the the 3rd cig today I am having the heart palpitations and general feeling of weakness. I am certain that the additives are the cause. I cannot find what differences these two have from each other but my body protests loudly when I smoke marlboro lights. I hope marlboro and other companies will continue to reduce additives. In the meanwhile I am researching how to grow my own tobacco.
special blend
I've been smoking the Marlboro red Special Blend 100's and they're good. As strong as I like, slow burning enough and with just the right flavor. What I'd like to see is the return of the Marlboro 25 pack.
Special Blend are the Mediums
Law was passed that tobacco companies can no longer use the words light or mediums. I dont know when the actual law takes effect, but that is why they now call it special blend. I have been smoking mediums for a while and now changed to special blend due to it being much cheaper. I have not found any difference in it at all except the name.
I'm not convinced that
I'm not convinced that Marlboro Lights and Mediums have been replaced by the special blend line. I've already seen the new Marlboro Lights pack. Next time I'm at the store, I'll take a peek.

special blend replaced my old brand
I used to smoke an off brand called GT ONE , then they stopped production , special blend were the closest to the feel and taste, and they were about the same price, rig at about $3.26 a pack. but that came to an end , they got me hooked an raised the price to $4.68 a pack. now I'm up that ceek without a paddel. if you can afford it SMOKE UP, they taste and feel real smoothe.
