You want Taste-
why pay for Import Duty?
T
The Import Duty on foreign-grown tobacco does nothing for cigarettes
except make them cost more than they should.
That's why Piedmonts, being Virginia tobacco, can give you better quality
for your money than cigarettes which have to take out quality to make up
for the Import Duty on the tobacco.
Character that natural "smack" that makes a cigarette a cigarette
belongs to VIRGINIA TOBACCO alone. Just say "a package of
Piedmonts, please."
