Item Purchased: Marshall McGearty Malawi Kings Cigarettes w/free cup of Coffee
Location Purchased: Marshall McGearty / 1553 N. Milwaukee Ave. / Chicago, IL
Price: $9.00 w/tax
Review: Another lazy Sunday, another stroll through Wicker Park in search of a cup of coffee and, hey look at that, I'm out of cigarettes. Why not give more of my money to R.J. Reynolds and get a free cup of coffee while I'm at it? Not quite the happy ending one might expect when paying $9.00 for a pack of smokes, but better than nothing.
Marshall McGearty's newest tobacco blend is a musky spiced smoke that smells like a mixture of brown rice and chocolate before lighting it. Malawi Kings come in a black box with a picture of a lion on the inside as if to drive home the fact that the tobacco used inside is from Africa. With a flavorful smoke, heavy on pepper scents, these cigarettes come as close to cloves as I would ever be willing to smoke. Though I do enjoy a full bodied and strong cigarette, these tend to lean a tad to the bitter end, even going so far as to leave a chalky aftertaste in my mouth. Malawi Kings are the strongest smoke I have pulled from this controversial den of maligned legal substance, but I enjoy the subtleties of MM's Virginian Blend much more. These cigarettes are not a bad smoke, but also not as exotic as the packaging and advertising would have you believe. A little bit of chocolate and a little bit of pepper is what you get. If you don't expect a wizard, you'll have a fine time with the man behind the jungle-themed curtain.
Oh and just in case it matters to you (though I don't know why it would if you are making a smoking lounge a destination for yourself), the Malawi Kings blend of tobacco has the least amount of nicotine and most tar of any of MM's cigarettes.
