Camel Turkish Gold Cigarettes (Hardpack)
Item Purchased: Camel Turkish Gold Cigarettes (Hardpack)
Location Purchased: Liquor Store on Milwaukee Ave. in Wicker Park / Chicago, IL
Price: $5.50
Review: Since this liquor store didn't carry Camel Turkish Royals and since the man behind the counter tried selling me everything from Camel unfiltered cigarettes to Turkish Jade menthols, I finally pointed to a pack of Turkish Golds. The line behind me was in a rush to buy their plastic pints of gut rot liquor and I didn't want to be the one responsible for ruining their day. I'll leave that to Jim, Jack and Jose.
Turkish Golds are the Camel Lights of the Turkish blend series of cigarettes. Royals are full, regular filtered smokes and since I am used to a stronger nicotine buzz, Turkish Golds are usually a last resort for me. These cigarettes feed my oral fixation, but only barely stave off the nic fits.
Note (10/26/2006): I'm not sure if it is my tastes or the production of these cigarettes that have changed, but I seem to like them more. Maybe I am smoking less and have regained some of my nasal sensitivity. More likely, I have just been smoking far too many Camel Lights lately. Regardless, the rating on these smokes has just gone up from mildly unpleasant to slightly pleasant.

I smoke drum often during the week. Not quite as tasty as Bali Shag if you ask me, but I like it and it saves me money.
