The sweetness is a bonus and the smoothness normally is as well but sometimes I just want that throat hit when Im craving a cigarette
Mhm. I too can understand needing that long draw & throat tickling.
Used to do that with unfiltered Lucky Strikes many moon ago. It would really irk my stepdad of course, most anything I did irked him so I never bothered caring too much if my smoking bothered him. He told me I was his booze hound in that "he brought me up to sniff out a watering hole in even a dry town". There was a lot of feces he seemed full of at the time.
Later years after he had died a psychologist suggested to me, that through his own homosexuality my stepdad, was making me toughened up for the world. The family kind of suspected homosexuality of him, he was one of those loudly protesting all macho male long haul truckers. Oddly he took longer than most women to get ready to go, even merely to drive 1,000 miles or more. He needed to look "oh so prim and proper".
There was never any hm, untoward abuse, he only cursed and beat me senseless. After I turned thirteen I could smoke. That helped a bit too. It was especially satisfying to pick myself up and light up in his face after he'd kicked me down. Pal Mals, Lucky Strikes, eventually Marlboro 'Reds', then RYO. He had to smoke his Newports and Kools. I did try menthols, enjoyed them a bit but they were not my mainstay. Cloves were alright but a rare treat.
Now, I vape batches of 'Junky Juice'. "What'd I put in there? Hm, don't 'member, bout six different fruits, maybe a tea, coffee, some rum I think ... hmm, junky juice it is!"
I also like a flavor from Vapor4Life, Chicago Classic Smoke.
Nom Nom Nom. It's rather expensive though, need to holler at someone there and see if a bulk buy can be finagled. Originally became a Hawk Sauce addict too which kind of stunned me, menthol I like.
