Marlboro Online
Marlboro cigarettes needs no introduction, they are the market leaders, the highest sold cigarette brand and the most famous among the smoking population. This wonderful cigarette brand was first produced by Philip Morris USA, which is owned by the Altria Tobacco Company, in USA and by Philip Morris International, a different company, outside America. This brand owes its name to the London Street, Great Marlborough Street, where the first cigarette factory of this company was located.
From the time of its introduction in 1847 till date this brand has seen many ups and downs. The toughest challenge faced by this brand was during the late 40's and the 50's when the sales of this brand fell drastically, and add to this the medical report titled "Cancer in Cartons" which was released during this period. This report highlighted the harmful effects of non-filter cigarettes. So Marlboro had to come up with a promotional campaign which would again kick start its sales, they introduced filter cigarettes and also started the "Marlboro Man" campaign. These steps again established the market dominance of this amazing brand of cigarettes.
The sales of this wonderful brand really shot up after 1902 when the Philip Morris Tobacco Company started aggressively promoting this brand. Marlboro in their 150 years of production has undergone constant change and development. To attract more customers and to explore new markets Marlboro cigarettes have launched numerous varieties namely Marlboro Accent (Ultra Lights), Marlboro Blue Fresh (Menthol), Marlboro Blue Ice (Menthol), Marlboro Extra Flavor, Marlboro Filter (Flavor) Plus, Marlboro Flavor Mix (Medium) and many more. One of the lighter variants which has a good fan following is Marlboro Ultra Lights (Silver). They are very flavorsome and aromatic, and differ from the original only in strength. This light variant is for mild smokers; it leaves very little bad taste and is very good for regular smoking.
