All ( :, Different YLinds of Tobaccos Make a difference in Taste and Aroma . . . Take Chester fields, for Instance SOME cigarettes are made out of only one kind of tobacco . . . while others are made from several different kinds. And everyone can understand that different tobaccos make a dif ference in taste and aroma. Chest erfields are a good example of this difference. You see it's not easy to make Chesterfield's milder taste. It takes three distinct kinds of Domestic tobaccos. Then these must be sea soned with the right amount of Turkish. And they must be blend ed and cross-blended until their flavors are welded together ... to make a cigarette that has character and yet is not too strong ... to make a cigarette that's milder, a cigarette that tastes better.
