92.3.157.6
One thing with the Berkeley Menthols - having smoked a few packs I've actually found the sickly undertaste gets worse rather than better, so I recommend keeping those to the odd pack now and then. Although you smoke a lot less than I do, so that might not be an issue for you.

: Thanks for the advice
: Bilbo, tried the
: Berkeley menthols and
: they are nice. I like
: the fact that they are
: longer than the
: marlboros. Have nt had
: the chance to try the
: Mores yet - probably at
: the weekend.
: Thanks Bilbo and bye for
: now, Sunita

: If you are up for trying
: other brands, More
: Menthol are worth a shot
: as well. One of the
: very few brands of 120s
: available in the UK,
: they have a quite a
: strong taste - they have
: a sharper minty flavor,
: and more of a slightly
: rough, but not
: unpleasant tobacco taste
: at the same time than
: any of the other brands.
:
: I only smoke the
: occasional one at home,
: never out and about
: because being thin 120s
: they look kinda
: ridiculous on a guy, but
: they are pretty nice.

: Hi Bilbo, I havent tried
: Berkely menthols yet (in
: fact Ive tried very few
: brands) but I will need
: some cigarettes tomorrow
: so I will buy a packet
: and let you know if I
: like them. The extra
: length sounds good,
: perhaps they will make
: me look more attractive.
: Thanks for the advise,

: Hi, Sunita, I picked up
: a
: pack of Berkeley
: Menthols, out of an urge
: to try something
: different today. I was
: a bit nervous of them,
: coz I's tried a couple
: of a friends years ago,
: long before I got into
: Menthols, and found them
: disgusting at the time,
: but as I'm now a fully
: converted, dedicated
: Menthol smoker I thought
: I'd give them another
: try, and I'm glad I did.
:
: I was really surprised
: by them - they taste
: almost exactly the same
: as the Marlboro
: Menthols, except they
: are maybe even a little
: bit smoother. And they
: are 100s, so while they
: are about the same
: strength as Marlboro
: Menthols, they pack a
: bit more of a nicotine
: punch, on account of
: being longer - add to
: that they are a little
: bit cheaper as well, so
: more for less and just
: as nice. Double win,
: really. I think once
: I've finished up my
: stock of Marlboro
: Menthols I'm going to
: switch permanently.
:
: They do have a an ever
: so slight sickly sweet
: under-taste that the
: Marlboro Menthols don't
: have, but I actually
: think it won't take more
: than a pack or two to
: actually get to prefer
: that.
:
: You should think about
: giving them a try if you
: haven't already.
