Park Drive Unfiltered

Park Drive ( Unfiltered ) UK

Overview 

Park Drive are one of the old iconic English cigarettes and although they did produce them . but stopped due to low sales are one of the last / very few brands that still produce unfiltered , they are  just like they would have been in the 50s except they are now limited to what can be put in , they used to be a populour brand , but as more switched to filtered , brands like this are now harder to find. I have smoked several unfiltered brand but never wrote a review as i have just started i have had Woodbine and Senior Service.

Price 

I bought these at a small shop near me that happened to have them , they have been lying around for a while , prices can vary from supermarkets to local shops .. Online from Asda they are priced at £7.66 , most shops are similar but some do charge more .

Packaging 

The packaging is very traditional and has not been updated like most packs have , i like it, its a real blast from the past only ruined by the warning labels , it has it original feature of sliding up as well. it is dived into two parts 10 in one side 10 on the other this is quite unusual in the UK , although i have seen it in other country's - I really like the packaging its very traditional , just like the cigarettes themselves 9.5/10 

-  Really thought its quite plain and dated 

The cig 

Just says in the middle Gallahers Park Drive , there quite harsh if your not used to unfiltered, the tobacco is well packed and like most unfiltered cigs it uses a quality tobacco , they have a very different taste to filters , its quite a unique taste, they give a good hit and the taste is quite nice and tastes good in the mouth , leaves a good head rush good hit from them , if find you get a good hit when you don't have a filter they dont burn away to fast , but its not the best burn time .FSC has changed them a bit , not quite the same taste as they used to have. If you aren't used to unfiltered they will be strange at first and you may get some tobacco in you're mouth. Worth a try if you haven't had unfiltered and there one of the best out of the few available within the UK

Rating   

8.5/10 - Very good tobacco as with unfiltered as there's nothing to hide the bad tobacco , everyone should try an unfiltered if you can find them as there what's smoking is all about back to basics - The price is a little bit to much to smoke them all the time , but there worth the treat . Burn time isn't the best and have a different taste to filter cigs  , so if you're used to them it could be unusual at first
