The first thing people see and like about
Luckies is how round and firm they arc.
The tobacco doesn't spill out and there are

Not the bottom leaves because those are
inferior in quality. We use only the center
leaves because they are the mildest and

why Luckies always draw easily, burn
evenly and are always mild and smooth
