Smoking Situation in Thailand<\/h2>\n

In line with the global trend, Thailand is also gradually becoming stricter and more demanding in terms of smoking cigarettes and good manners.<\/p>\n

The only people who walk around smoking are foreigners, so be mindful of your manners.<\/p>\n

The sales are basically placed behind the cash registers at convenience stores such as 7-Eleven, where you can’t see them, so you have to tell the cashier the brand name and purchase the product.<\/p>\n

Cigarettes available in Thailand<\/h2>\n

\"Thailand<\/p>\n

Marlboro, Mebius, Camel, L&M, Winston, and other foreign-made cigarettes are commonly sold.<\/p>\n

There is a wide variety of cigarettes available, including original, light, and menthol, but the cigarettes sold in Thailand are clearly not tasty.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The taste of cigarettes varies from country to country, even for the same brand, but unfortunately Thai cigarettes are not very tasty.<\/p>\n

\n

Thai cigarettes have a middle slim.<\/h3>\n

There are not slim-type cigarettes that women smoke<\/strong>, but rather cigarettes that are about as thick as a regular cigarette and between a regular and a slim-type cigarette.<\/p>\n

\"Thailand<\/p>\n

On the left is the middle slim type of Marlboro.<\/p>\n

It will be a little slimmer and shorter. However, this middle slim type is only available in some brands such as Marlboro, L&M, and Winston.<\/p>\n

Thai Cigarettes<\/h2>\n

Of course, there are also Thai cigarettes. The most commonly smoked by locals are probably WONDER, SMS, and iSCORE.<\/p>\n

However, none of them are very tasty. If I had to pick one, I would say that iSCORE<\/strong> is the most decent tobacco.<\/p>\n

\"Thailand<\/p>\n

It is blue, but it tastes menthol.<\/p>\n

Recommended cigarettes<\/h2>\n

\"Thai<\/p>\n

For a good balance of price and taste, I recommend Camel Blue<\/strong>, which is popular among thrifty smokers because it costs 60 baht and tastes decent.<\/p>\n

\"Thailand<\/p>\n

Next I would recommend Marlboro Red<\/strong>. It is a bit of a strong cigarrete, but while the other colors of Marlboros are not as good, Red is the most decent tasting. If Red is too harsh for you, I recommend Red’s Middle Slim.<\/p>\n

For menthol lovers, I recommend the iSCORE slim type 5.0.<\/strong>For 60 baht, it tastes decent.<\/p>\n

How to order cigarettes<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Cigarettes can be found behind the cash register at convenience stores, etc. Tell the clerk the brand, color, and 7.1 if you want a middle-slim type.<\/p>\n

If you are in a convenience store around Sukhumvit, many of the clerks understand a little English, so you can just order “Marlboro Red”. But if they have hard and soft cases, you may be asked which one you are.<\/p>\n

The problem is that English is not spoken a little outside the center of town.<\/p>\n

For clerks who do not understand English, you can tell them by specifying the brand + color + box or soft (for Marlboro), size (only for brands with slim).<\/strong><\/p>\n

Example: Camel Far (Blue)
\nExample: Marlboro Tone Je Jum nun (gold middle slim)
\nExample: Marlboro Dane Bo (red box)<\/div>\n

\u25bc Thai words such as color, size, and box\/soft are listed below.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Types and Prices of Cigarettes<\/h2>\n

The price of cigarettes in Thailand varies greatly depending on the brand. Price does not always equal quality, and foreign brands such as Marlboro and Mevius are particularly expensive.<\/p>\n

There are many different types of each brand and the amount of nicotine is not listed. Also, green is menthol.<\/p>\n
