heard the charges leveled against smoking Chances are you even tried to do something about it like trying several of those cigarettes that take out everything including the taste If youre like a lot of other smokers you probably went right back to your old brand and concluded that a goodtasting cigarette for a contem porary smoker has never been invented Well if thats the case you havent tried Vantage Vantage cuts down substantially on what you may not want without cutting out that satisfying tobacco flavour youve come to appreciate Now Vantage isnt the only cigarette of its kind you can
