The cigarettes themselves remain the same, coming in the existing Rula or Mola flavors with the same tar content of 5.0 mg.
The company expects a positive response to the limited-edition packaging, adding that the This Africa line has been gaining popularity “in college towns” since its release.
The This Africa line is created using tobacco leaves that have been smoke-dried in “traditional African style,” according to the manufacturer. Each pack is priced at 4,500 won.
