Turkish tobacco adds some- thing to the taste and aroma of a cigarette that no other tobacco can give. It means something that Chesterfield always has in stor- age upwards of 350,000 bales of this aromatic Turkish leaf. This Turkish tobacco is blended and cross-blended with ripe mild home-grown tobaccos to give Clresterfields a taste and aroma that is not like other cigarettes. Everything that money can buy is used to make Chesterfield the cigarette that’s milder, the ciga- rette that tastes better.
