JTI has revealed a new King Size Cigarillo that contains a mentholated capsule which bypasses the impending menthol ban, reports the Scottish Local Retailer.
The Sterling Dual Capsule Leaf Wrapped is a King Size Cigarillo containing a Virginia blend and wrapped in tobacco leaf. In addition, a mentholated capsule has been added to the filter which smokers can click to release the popular menthol flavour, reports the Scottish Local Retailer.
Cigarillos will not be affected by the impending ban on flavoured cigarettes and tobacco which means JTI's new product could prove very popular with smokers that prefer menthol.
Ross Hennessy, Head of Sales at JTI UK, said, “We expect that Sterling Dual Capsule Leaf Wrapped cigarillos will become a popular choice for adult smokers and appreciated by those looking for value-for-money tobacco options.”
According to the Scottish Local Retailer, the Sterling Dual Capsule Leaf Wrapped will retail at GBP 4.50 (USD 5.88) with one pack containing 10 cigarillos.
