Tar also includes the majority of mutagenic and carcinogenic agents in tobacco smoke.

There is a common misconception and misunderstanding that the tar in cigarettes is just the same tar used on roads. But this comprehension is absolutely wrong. As a result of this, cigarette companies where obliged to give tar/nicotine ratings for cigarettes, usually use “tar”, in quotation marks, to indicate that it is not the tar, used for road surface. The European Union currently limits the tar composition of cigarettes to 10 mg.

Tar when being accumulated in the lungs coats the cilia causing them to stop working and eventually die. This is one of the he main problems for smokers and it is causing such things as lung cancer as the particles can not be transported or trapped by the cilia and finally just enter the alveoli.

The brand was named “Camel” due to Turkish paper which was used in its production, in imitation of then-fashionable Egyptian cigarettes.

First feature that made Camel cigarettes so popular was a milder taste in comparison with other brands which were much harsher at that time. Secondly, there was no national market for pre-packed cigarettes as the majority of smokers preferred to roll their own. R.J. Reynolds with its Camel brand was a pioneer in this sphere. And finally, R.J. Reynolds has organized in advance the advertising campaign, prior to official release. The campaign used teasers that merely stated “the Camels are coming”.

Of course this strategy very soon made Camel one of the top selling brands in the world. Offering affordable cheap prices, Camel left its competitors far behind.

Today Camel cigarettes are sold everywhere. It is even possible to buy Camel cigarettes online as e-commerce goes ahead. Cigarette online stores offer really cheap prices that make online offers so attractive for smokers.

Apart of toxin filtration, a filter also provides much smoother smoking. However at first it was quite difficult for heavy smokers to get used to filter cigarettes. Some of them just decided to roll their own. However with time smokers’ interest in low tar products continue to grow so unfiltered cigarettes gave up their position.

Camel Filter is considered to be one of the strongest cigarette brands. It contains 0,9 mg of nicotine and 12 mg of tar which is even more than Marlboro Red has. The brand is very popular among heavy smokers. Camel cigarettes are made of Turkish and American (Virginia) tobacco blend, therefore it produces a smooth taste when smoking and does not seem to be so strong.

When buying Camel Filter online, it is strongly recommended to look for any references, feedbacks and reviews of the online cigarette stores as there are a lot scams on Internet.

Camel Blue has relatively low nicotine and tar level. It is about 0,7 mg of nicotine and 8 mg of tar. The cigarettes can be a good option for heavy smokers who would like to decrease gradually the nicotine level in the cigarettes they smoke.

Today it is also possible to buy Camel Blue online at very low prices. Such cigarettes are produced outside the United States therefore the price is so cheap. There is only one disadvantage – the delivery time. However the reliable websites with organized logistics network deliver cigarettes quite fast straight to customers’ shipping address.

When the production of Camel Silver was launched, the cigarettes had the other name – Camel Super Lights. However in 2010 FDA adopted new regulations prohibiting to use the words “Light”, “Lights”, “Super Lighrs”, “Ultra Lights” in the name of cigarette brands. That is why R.J. Reynolds and other cigarette manufacturers started to use color-coding system.

Camel Silver as any other cigarettes of Camel brand are made of Turkish and American (Virginia) tobacco blend. However Camel cigarettes sold outside the United States by JT International do not contain Turkish tobacco, instead they are produced in Romania with local tobacco.

The majority of online cigarette stores offer to buy Camel Silver produced in Romania and other countries of Eastern Europe. Therefore the cigarettes are much cheaper than those produced in United States. The difference between American and European cigarettes is that European ones are a bit lighter due to the longer filter they have.
